This article is about the Great Lakes freighter SS Choctaw. I brought the article to GA status in December 2020. Ever since then, it has been copy edited by Baffle gab1978 and has undergone and a peer review. GreatLakesShips (talk) 13:19, 1 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

File:Wahcondah.jpg needs a US tag. Nikkimaria (talk) 01:40, 2 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Nikkimaria: Only the author's year of death is known. I found no evidence that suggests it was published before 2003, and have added a PD-US-unpublished tag. GreatLakesShips (talk) 10:10, 2 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Coord note -- Surprised this hasn't attracted more attention but as we're getting on to three weeks' duration with only an image review (vital though that is) this nom is a bit of a non-starter, so I'm going to archive it. Given the lack of comprehensive reviews, I'm okay with you re-nominating without waiting the usual two weeks, but it might be preferable to hang on till we've closed a few more and the list gets shorter. Also, I know you undertook a peer review earlier in the year but you'd be eligible for the FAC mentoring scheme if you'd like to consider that.
