Battle of Tassafaronga[edit]

Respectfully nominate this article about a World War II Pacific War Guadalcanal Campaign naval battle for A-class consideration. Cla68 (talk) 05:29, 12 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Support Very good article, crisply written and very close to FA I'd say (though it will need much more copious referencing for FAC). And talking of refs, why not use a shorter form for cites? ie Crenshaw, Tassafaronga, p. 137, Toland, The Rising Sun, p. 419, Frank, Guadalcanal, p. 502, Morison, Struggle for Guadalcanal, p. 295. > "Crenshaw, p. 137, Toland, p. 419, Frank, p. 502, Morison, p. 295."? --ROGER DAVIES ^talk 06:35, 12 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've never done it that way, but looks fine to me if the MoS supports it. Cla68 (talk) 12:05, 12 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Never caused any problems so far (Hamlet and Emily Dickinson: sorry about the un-military nature of the examples :))) --ROGER DAVIES ^talk 10:19, 13 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Support Excellent work, ready for FA in my opinion if the referencing problems mentioned by Roger will be fixed. --Eurocopter (talk) 18:05, 12 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Support - Excellent job! As has been said before, will be ready for FAC once the ref problems are fixed. Also, you may want to think about replacing the links to ships with {{USS}} and {{Sclass}} and any other available templates (Just a suggestion). -MBK₀₀₄ 05:34, 13 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the helpful suggestion. Cla68 (talk) 20:57, 13 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
