 * GA review (see here for criteria)


 * 1) It is reasonably well written.
 * a (prose): b (MoS):
 * Some figures need conversion (i.e., the "5 mm armored shell") ✅
 * There needs to be consistency in the ordering of numbers. I'd suggest metric first, since this is a German aircraft. ✅
 * In the same vein, you've got a mix of spellings (i.e., "armor" but "metre." Pick either American or British English and standarize/ise the article. ✅
 * 1) It is factually accurate and verifiable.
 * a (references): b (citations to reliable sources):  c (OR):
 * There's a citation needed tag that needs to be addressed. ✅
 * What makes http://www.luft46.com/arado/are381.html reliable? ✅ Replaced with better source.
 * The books need page numbers for the citations. ✅ Replaced the Masters work.
 * 1) It is broad in its coverage.
 * a (major aspects): b (focused):
 * The article body needs to state what happened to the aircraft, production-wise. Remember, the lead section should simply be a summary of the article, per WP:LEAD. There shouldn't be anything there that isn't in the body of the article.
 * will begin work soon, unless you want to help

 * Also, do you know anything about specific production times other than "by March 1944"?
 * no
 * 1) It follows the neutral point of view policy.
 * Fair representation without bias:
 * 1) It is stable.
 * No edit wars, etc.:
 * 1) It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
 * a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
 * But this criteria was met only after I removed the illustrations, all of which violated copyright. Just because the image isn't clearly marked with a copyright notice doesn't mean it's not protected by copyright. I suggest you err on the side of not using an image unless you can definitively prove the image is out of copyright. In the case of WWII images, unless they were taken by an American soldier, you can bet that they're still under copyright.
 * 1) Overall:
 * Pass/Fail:
 * There's a fair bit of work needed to get this article in shape for GA, but I'm willing to leave the review open for as long as it takes, provided you're willing to do the work. Excellent work so far! Parsecboy (talk) 03:02, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Thank you. I've been sick these few days, and will continue to be weakly active until the 29th. WikiCopter RadioChecklistFormerly AirplanePro 19:00, 20 August 2010 (UTC)

General comment: I don't know if it's been done, but this book is available on Google Books that should be examined to see if it has any extra information. Parsecboy (talk) 11:21, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
