I'll review this one shortly.--Tomobe03 (talk) 14:02, 18 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry about the delay, RL got in the way... Here we go:

  • No DAB links - no attention required
  • Checklinks reports no problems with external links - no attention required
  • No duplicate links - no attention required
  • The first paragraph of the "Development" section is unreferenced - please provide references for the claims stated there.
  • Citation "Green (2000)" should read "Green & Green (2000)" - two authors
  • The lead lists 1951 as the last year when the T30 was used, and so does the infobox, but the year is not found in the body prose. Both lead and infobox should repeat cited material from the body (condensed appropriately), so please add that bit.
  • Ditto for the manufacturer - appears only in the infobox
  • Likewise, infobox does not specify France as operator of the T30 - please add that bit too.
  • There is a discrepancy between length specified in the prose (6.28 m) and the infobox (6.32 m). Which one is it?
  • The article employs a mix of imperial an metric measurements. I assume, imperial ones should come first, and then be converted in metric - it is possible to flip measurements in the convert template by adding order=flip parameter to the template.
  • Conversions of 75mm (at the first instance) and 0.375 inch are missing
  • Personally, I would spell out the measurement units (using spell=in parameter) but I don't think that's a dealbreaker here.
  • No referencing issues other than ones indicated above.
  • Image is suitable, with a suitable licence - no action required.
  • The article seems reasonably comprehensive and neutral - no action required.

That's about it... Nice work.--Tomobe03 (talk) 19:22, 26 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • The final passage says the vehicle was retired in 1941, but also that it was used in the First Indochina War which makes no sense - I assume there's a typo somewhere.
  • There are now three "clarification needed" tags in the article - please address them.
  • The above infobox issue (users) is not addressed yet.

I watchlisted this page, so just ping me here when there's some progress. Cheers--Tomobe03 (talk) 22:47, 27 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
