I've just finished a large revamp of this article. I've consulted a great many sources and believe that the article now reflects current scholarship. I hope to nominate the article soon for an A-class review and then FAC. There are still several images that I plan to add soon, and the article still needs a final copyedit. I am most concerned right now that the information flows well, that it is not confusing to people who are unfamiliar with the topic, and that it is appropriately neutral (not favoring one side over the other). I welcome any comments to improve the article.
Thanks,

Take it or leave it. I just saw your message on the wikiproject texas page, and figured id give my 2 cents:
Much shorter intro would be nice. I think it could be halved
Needs more images. maybe something of the modern site. Image:Mission San Antonio aka Alamo.jpg
Here is a good map that could help you. http://www.lib.utexas.edu/maps/atlas_texas/ i am pretty sure it is free for educational purposes.
I think the "fall of the alamo" image would be a better looking picture in the infobox
Popular culture- mentioned several times throughout seasons 6-7 of star trek deep space nine as a holosuite program. http://memory-alpha.org/en/wiki/Alamo
Maybe a Battle of the Alamo in Popular Culture page page could be started. the current section is kind of long. See: Battle of Thermopylae in popular culture
See other battle featured articles as a point of comparison
