Comments

[edit]

Hi, good work so far. I've done a bit of copy edit work on this one today. Please check that you agree with my edits. There were a couple of issues that I couldn't resolve:

  • Tugwell is cited in the Notes, but is not included in the Bibliography
  • "Clarke, p. 219" in Notes - is this "Clark" in Bibliography?
  • "Peters, p. 9" in Notes - should this be "Peters and Buist"?
  • In the Notes there is "Peters and Buist", but in the Bibliography this is listed as "Peters, Mike; Luuk, Buist" (indicating that Buist is a first name);
  • Shortt is listed in Bibliography but not cited specifically.

Could some one take a look and see if these can be resolved? Regards, AustralianRupert (talk) 05:10, 16 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Tugwell now added
Clark without the E amended
Ditto Peters and Buist
Bibliography changed it is Peters and Buist
Shott and Mcbride ref 2
Yes, indeed - sorry I missed that. I was using my browser's search function and the typo meant it didn't pick it up. Cheers, AustralianRupert (talk) 06:41, 17 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sentence fragment

[edit]

See 2nd paragraph under Arnhem. There is a sentence fragment beginning with "Three platoons from the KOSB" that needs to be fixed up. It's difficult to guess its meaning. You may wish to review my edits to Norway and Sicily. Another large edit had a conflict with AustralianRupert's edit, so I'm hesitant to do any more. B1=n for the items noted in Comments. The article is easily B-class once it's tidied up. Djmaschek (talk) 05:44, 16 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, sorry about the edit conflict. I've stopped working on the article now. Cheers, AustralianRupert (talk) 06:14, 16 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
