Review
(criteria)
  •  Comment The formulation of the scope now includes all „Civil War Unknowns Monuments” in the world. Usually some clue about the location is placed after comma: „Civil War Unknowns Monument, Arlington”.--MrPanyGoff 06:17, 25 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment Fully agree. To be precise enough, I suggest: "U.S. Civil War Unknowns Monument, Arlington National Cemetery, VA." (There were other "Civil Wars" in the world, and maybe we have a Civil War Unknowns monument in Arlington, Texas ?)--Jebulon (talk) 15:03, 29 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    • Although I acknowledge the concern, I disagree with the need to disambiguate in general, and with the specific formulation proposed by Jebulon. You are treating this as though the scope name is merely descriptive, and if that were the case I would entirely agree. But this is not simply descriptive; "Civil War Unknowns Monument" is the actual name of the thing. cmadler (talk) 15:49, 29 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
      • Most of the people don't know these facts and they are going to wonder where is this because there is a monument of unknowns in their town too.--MrPanyGoff 17:16, 29 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
        • I think most such are called "Tomb of the Unknown Soldier" or something like that ("Tomb of the Unknowns", "Monument to the Unknown Soldier", etc.). Can you point to other monuments, actually existing, also called "Civil War Unknowns Monument"? cmadler (talk) 18:16, 29 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
