GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)

---

Decent work there like normal, but I have a few comments.

Thanks for this review. I have some questions. Also, has this passed? The last line seems to suggest you passed it.--Jackyd101 (talk) 22:48, 15 July 2015 (UTC)

1. It is reasonably well written.

   a (prose, no copyvios, spelling and grammar): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):

• Fix dashes using the script

• What script?--Jackyd101 (talk) 22:48, 15 July 2015 (UTC)

• CharInsert. It is on by default. You can turn it on in your preferences

• It is unecessary to cites like this The M4 Sherman served in WWII. It later served in the Korean War.

• I think I've only done this when there is only one ref in the paragraph, in which case I've spaced them out to make it clear the whole paragraph is sourced.--Jackyd101 (talk) 22:48, 15 July 2015 (UTC)

*Space between the "p" and number in the cites

• Is this really necessary? I thought it was up to editor preference?--Jackyd101 (talk) 22:48, 15 July 2015 (UTC)

1. It is factually accurate and verifiable.

   a (reference section): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):

• You only need one kind of identifier for the references, not two.

• I don't know what this means.--Jackyd101 (talk) 22:48, 15 July 2015 (UTC)

• It means that you don't need both oclcs and isbns for your refs.

• Please and oclcs or isbns for two of the sources

• I don't know what an OCLC is or where to find it. The two references without ISBNS were published before ISBNS were invented.--Jackyd101 (talk) 22:48, 15 July 2015 (UTC)

• OCLC numbers are found on www.worldcat.org. There are used for identifing refs that were mad before isbns were invented.

1. It is broad in its coverage.

   a (major aspects): b (focused):

2. It follows the neutral point of view policy.

   Fair representation without bias:

3. It is stable.

   No edit wars, etc.:

4. It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.

   a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):

5. Overall:

   Pass/Fail:

• Passing, well done (I have finished two issues on my own).--Tomandjerry211 (alt) (talk) 12:11, 17 July 2015 (UTC)
