Hi! I have elected to review this article against the Good article criteria, and should have my initial comments posted up shortly. Cheers, Abraham, B.S. (talk) 23:54, 16 February 2009 (UTC)


 * I have completed reviewing this article against the criteria and am placing it on hold pending a few concerns outlined below. Cheers, Abraham, B.S. (talk) 00:10, 17 February 2009 (UTC)


 * GA review (see here for criteria)


 * 1) It is reasonably well written.
 * a (prose): b (MoS):
 * "U-30 departed on her first patrol on 26 February for patrol off Cape Matapan and the Gulf of Taranto." - The repetition of "patrol" just doesn't sit well. Would it be possible to slightly re-word this?
 * Yes, I've reworded it. — Bellhalla (talk) 04:32, 17 February 2009 (UTC)
 * "Gibson and Prendergast report that there is no evidence ..." - It should probably be clarified who Gibson and Prendergast are.
 * That would help, wouldn't it? :) Added context. — Bellhalla (talk) 04:32, 17 February 2009 (UTC)
 * 1) It is factually accurate and verifiable.
 * a (references): b (citations to reliable sources):  c (OR):
 * Cites #4 and #10 require access dates.
 * That was an artifact from recent changes to cite web, which no longer uses the parameter "accessdaymonth". Now fixed. There's a bot going around and fixing these; guess it hadn't gotten here yet… :)
 * I figured that must have been the case. Abraham, B.S. (talk) 05:41, 17 February 2009 (UTC)
 * 1) It is broad in its coverage.
 * a (major aspects): b (focused):
 * 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):
 * I assume there are no images available? It would be nice if one was included, but the infobox will suffice if not.
 * None I'm aware of for U-30. There is a fair use image of U-27 at that sub's launch. — Bellhalla (talk) 04:32, 17 February 2009 (UTC)
 * 1) Overall:
 * Pass/Fail:

Thanks for the review and the helpful suggestions. I think I've addressed them all. — Bellhalla (talk) 04:32, 17 February 2009 (UTC)
 * You are very welcome. Well, all of my concerns have been addressed and I'm now satisfied that it now meets the GA criteria, and am passing it as such. Congratulations! Cheers, Abraham, B.S. (talk) 05:41, 17 February 2009 (UTC)
