Overall: @Aoidh: Good article but just some questions. What makes Alpharetta and Roswell Revue & News and Roswell Memorial Day reliable sources? Onegreatjoke (talk) 23:09, 12 January 2023 (UTC)
- @Onegreatjoke: We keep bumping into each other at DYK, I'll address your other nom as soon as I finish here (if I suddenly stop editing the power has gone back out, it's been spotty, in fact I already typed a response to this once and lost it when the power cut out). Alpharetta and Roswell Revue & News is the former name of the Alpharetta-Roswell Herald, and though it's a smaller paper and more local in scope, it has the usual editorial oversight that would be expected of such papers. The Roswell Memorial Day site is run by the group that runs the annual Memorial Day ceremony and is a joint effort between the City of Roswell and Roswell Rotary, which are two of the main groups behind the memorial's creation so they would best know what it's made of (it's located at Roswell's City Hall). - Aoidh (talk) 05:15, 13 January 2023 (UTC)
If that's it then I guess i'll approve. Onegreatjoke (talk) 16:41, 16 January 2023 (UTC)
