Hoping to get to this later today! Note: this is my first politics-related GAN, so please bear with me. 𓃦LunaEatsTuna (💬) 00:31, 23 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

My understanding was that summaries of written works do not need be cited and that nothing in that section is one of the types of statements that requires citation under the GA criteria (direct quotations, statistics, published opinion, counterintuitive or controversial statements that are challenged or likely to be challenged, and contentious material relating to living persons). With that said, I generally find Wikipedia citation guidelines to be unclear and self-contradictory. All other notes have been addressed. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 23:47, 23 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Copyvio check

Earwig says good to go.

Files

The image used is relevant, high quality and copyright-free:

  • File:Alexander Hamilton A17950.jpg: valid public domain rationale.

Prose

  • I would replace Publius with Hamilton to avoid confusion with later sections.
  • Summary is completely unsourced. (!!)
  • "power in the name of private rights" – wikilink private rights.
  • "regulate peacetime armies." – wikilink peacetime as first mention in the body.
  • "power over the military as one such as example" – remove as.
  • "from the experiences of the American Revolution." – wikilink American Revolution and unlink its mention in "much emphasis in the American Revolution"
  • "identifies the common man as generally" – I would add quotation marks to common man or replace it with commoner instead to be gender neutral (assuming he was talking about all peoples?).

Refs

All sources used are RS. Spotcheck TBD, will do a spotcheck after Summary is cited.

Templates, External links, nav and cats good.

  • Add WP:ALT text to the image. I believe there should be an alt = paragraph?
  • Move the short description to the way top of the article.
