@TeriEmbrey: I started to clean-up the article a bit. A lot of the information was unnecessarily spaced out, so I've collapsed some sections into larger paragraphs. There are a number of claims that do not have clear citations from my read-- these will need to be clarified. The nice thing is that there appears to be numerous sources for Bickerdyke bio that haven't yet been tapped. Are many of these accessible at the Pritzker?

@I JethroBT: Yes, those sources are available at Pritzker. Thanks for taking a look at this article. TeriEmbrey (talk) 14:44, 15 January 2015 (UTC) [reply ]

I worked on this a bit today as well and there are only two missing citations now. TeriEmbrey (talk) 21:15, 15 January 2015 (UTC) [reply ]

I've upped this to B class by our standards, although I think it could use additional visuals. Perhaps some pictures of the conditions in the hospitals, the locales where she worked, especially in the CW. Also, their should be a bio box, not only her picture at the head of the article. The box should contain the relevant statistics on her. auntieruth (talk) 16:04, 28 January 2015 (UTC) [reply ]

Thanks for taking a look at it. TeriEmbrey (talk) 16:05, 28 January 2015 (UTC) [reply ]

Teri, I suggest expanded it with some info from other sources, such as Spencer Tucker's. I don't remember if you used More than Petticoats, or not. Also it would be useful to include some information from soldiers and officers about her. auntieruth (talk) 16:13, 28 January 2015 (UTC) [reply ]

I think there are errors in the dates overall.

I also think there should be a Kansas Section as she spent so much of her later years over at least two spans after the Civil War (e.g., the Bickerdyke memorial cemetery near Bunker Hill, Kansas, and Alexander Gardner's photograph of her inn in Salina (need some clarification).
