  • Starting this review. Updates to follow. Ktin (talk) 17:31, 7 January 2023 (UTC)
General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
  • Cited: Yes - Offline/paywalled citation accepted in good faith
  • Interesting: Yes
QPQ: Done.

Overall: Article is comprehensive. Meets eligibility criteria for DYK - recently promoted to GA. Written well and has no issues with tone etc. Article is extensively sourced but is sourced largely to offline sources, so, I will WP:AGF on that front. Earwig notes no Copyvio issues. However, I suspect that Earwig can not look at the offline sources. However, I will WP:AGF. Regarding the hook itself -- I am counting 10 naval ships in the infobox and I see them in the body as well. Some reviewers ask that the hook be introduced as a sentence in the article itself. Please see if that is possible. Not a hard and fast rule in my opinion. But, something to consider. QPQ done. Hook is reasonably interesting. All-in-all I am passing this with an AGF tag.
