Talk:Irish Mercantile Marine during World War II/to do

Roadmap to GA
The article has come a long way. In the interest of greasing the skids for the GA nomination, here are some thoughts: Cheers. H aus Talk 09:49, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
 * One paragraph sections and short paragraphs cause problems at review time reviewer ire. One criteria I often see for paragraphs is "5-7 sentences of flowing prose."  ✅
 * Specifying pixel sizes in thumbnail images is frowned upon. ✅
 * While 114 citations is respectable, reviewers will point out that more are needed. The more that are in the article before it goes to WP:GAN, the easier that process will be. 152 ✅
 * When the events section gets taken care of, I think a B-class reassessment would be in order. I think I know someone who would be willing to do this in short order.  I've been mulling over an alternative to the list at User:Haus/5.  B ✅
 * After achieving B-class, I think a peer review at WP:MILHIST would be extremely useful.
 * I believe after a milhist peer-review, the good article process should be fairly painless.

Thanks
I'm inclined to remove the timeline list completely - it can be a separate article ClemMcGann (talk) 16:14, 28 August 2009 (UTC) removed (separate article) ✅

Propaganda?
Check those stats from "His Majesty's Stationery Office" - they are official but were published in 1944
