I've done a little bit of tidying up to the article as I went through it. Please check that you are comfortable with my changes. Otherwise, I only have the following comments:

Lead[edit]

  • One matter still requiring attention is a missing word: two-and-one-half story brick ? to replace... is this is the keeper's house? The same issue is present in the Current Tower section.
Fixed. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 17:17, 2 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

History[edit]

  • "...and the grave of British Ensign and Assistant Adjutant Watkins". I assume Watkins was a casualty of the battle? I suggest reordering this bit to follow the guff about the attempted landing? And is there still a headstone for the Watkins grave?
I fixed it up a little, but the grave apparently is to the south, but I have no information on its location or if a marker was ever erected. Sorry, I only get these repeated accounts and nothing more. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 17:17, 2 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Current tower[edit]

  • The last sentence looks like it needs attention: repeated subject matter and the guff RE Elizur Thompson looks like it should be elsewhere.
Fixed. Was additional information that I didn't put in chronologically. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 17:17, 2 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

References[edit]

  • The formatting of the citations is a little inconsistent. The book references are missing place of publication and ref 5 is missing page numbers.
Place of publication? The publisher is located in Massachusetts, but is that really necessary? Fixed the the page numbers. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 17:17, 2 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Other stuff[edit]

  • Image tags OK although postcard pic is missing author information. Mind you, I I'm not sure if it is a GA requirement.
There is no authorial credit and I didn't upload it, but these postcards were just that... post cards. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 17:17, 2 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • No dup links
  • NO disambig links
  • External links OK

I'll check back in a week or so but ping me if you get to it sooner. Cheers. Zawed (talk) 08:56, 25 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't get noticed. Thanks, going to work on this now. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 14:41, 2 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Did a bunch of fixes. How's it look? ChrisGualtieri (talk) 17:17, 2 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
There was a missing isbn, which I have added. Otherwise your changes/comments are fine. Passing as GA. Zawed (talk) 02:06, 7 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
