Will aim to get to this later in the week. Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 08:23, 26 August 2013 (UTC)

Toolbox check -- no dab or EL issues.

Prose -- completed my usual copyedit, pls let me know if I've misinterpreted or broken anything.
 * Looks fine to me --Errant (chat!) 08:31, 28 August 2013 (UTC)

Coverage Structure / referencing / supporting materials -- seem to be in good order.
 * Looks like a fair overview for GA-level; I'm assuming you weren't planning to take further than this.
 * Maybe to A-Class, if I feel like it. But that' about it. There isn't much else to add except a bit of trivia. --Errant (chat!) 08:31, 28 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Mmm, I tend to consider A-Class a deeper level of coverage (hopefully not trivia, I agree) and, as I say, it seems perfectly adequate for GA but perhaps a tad thin for A (or FA, which shouldn't be too far beyond A). I guess the Fredendall thing is an example the sort of additional detail I'd hope to find in A/FA. Of course if the material just isn't there, then it isn't. Anyway, doesn't affect us here...!

 * Thanks :) You've at least given me a starting point to flesh things out a bit. If I can then I'll probably give A-Class a shot - I do it more for the reviews than the badge (although obviously that is nice). GA gets someone to look over things, A-Class gets the nitpicks. :) --Errant (chat!) 14:07, 28 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Idle query: anything on what the Germans thought of the suggestion that Fredendall would lead the "operation"? After Kasserine, I'd have thought that alone would make them think twice about Ironside's veracity... ;-)
 * Interesting question. Nothing that popped out at me - I'll check the sources later see if I can find anything. --Errant (chat!) 08:31, 28 August 2013 (UTC)

Summary -- nothing really holding this back, will just wait for your responses before closing... Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 04:20, 28 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks! --Errant (chat!) 08:31, 28 August 2013 (UTC)
 * No prob, passing as GA. Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 11:54, 28 August 2013 (UTC)
