Comments[edit]

The article is pretty well written so far but definitely needs more information for it to fall under the B-Class criteria. A better structure is also needed as there is just one long paragraph about the history and doesn't break it down into any convenient form. I am not an expert in any means about the American Civil War but maybe a merger with the army's later variation, Army of Northern Virginia, would make both articles quality increase. But good work so far. --MOLEY (talk) 20:39, 12 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Would expanding the paragraph on First Bull Run into two work: the first on the actions of the brigades on the left flank and the other on the right flank brigades? Wild Wolf (talk) 03:24, 13 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I think any major breaking of the page into readable sections would knock it up to a C.--MOLEY (talk) 05:35, 17 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
