GA on hold notes[edit]

Being nitpicky here:

  • Under E15 Mission:"As the small craft turned to go, they were caught by searchlights and subjected to heavy and accurate gunfire which holded Majestic's boat causing her to sink fast." - shouldn't this read 'holed'?
  • Under Later War Service:"In August, Robinson was sent to Anzac Cove as a naval liaison officer and on his second day there was badly wounded near the front line, forcing his evacuation to England, where King George V presented him with his medal at Buckingham Palace on the same day as fellow Mason ." I'm assuming there's something missing at the end there - fellow Mason what? who?

Otherwise, great work. Mocko13 03:04, 15 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Excellent article. Promoted. - Mocko13 14:35, 16 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

GA Sweeps (on hold)[edit]

In an effort to ensure all listed Good articles continue to meet the Good article criteria, this article has been reviewed as part of Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles/Project quality task force. Whilst the article is generally good, I have found one or two minor issues that may need to be addressed. These are:

  • Prose: there are some examples of awkward and ungrammatical prose, and parts of the article would benefit from a gentle copyedit. I'm happy to undertake this myself if that would be helpful.
  • Neutrality: this relates to the last sentence of the article lead, which comes across as less-than-neutral. If it can be sourced as it stands, fine, but if not it should perhaps be toned down a little.
  • The licenses for some of the images may need careful checking - one is potentially obsolete, and some of the others don't have the required information (although I may be wrong; for the life of me I can't find the relevant guidelines/policy so I'll update this when I've checked up on it further!) Ignore - browser problem! EyeSereneTALK 22:09, 28 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I will check back in no less than seven days. If progress is being made and the points above are being dealt with, the article will remain listed as a Good article. Otherwise, it may be delisted (such a decision may be challenged through WP:GAR). If improved after it has been delisted, it may be renominated at WP:GAN.

Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you have any questions, and many thanks for all the hard work that has gone into this article thus far. Regards, EyeSereneTALK 19:30, 28 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
