Comments That's it, it's a very nice piece of work. The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 10:34, 31 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks for knocking this one up, much appreciated in light of my comments elsewhere! I think there's a little bit of assumed jargon here, which we could probably resolve at GA by linking, so apologies if I'm asking for a few more phrases to be linked...
 * Link critical mass?
 * ✅ Linked. Hawkeye7   (discuss)  11:54, 31 August 2021 (UTC)
 * thermonuclear weapon can also be linked.
 * ✅ Linked. Hawkeye7   (discuss)  11:54, 31 August 2021 (UTC)
 * "for special purposes" could you allude to one such "special" purpose?
 * ✅ Sure. Added a bit. Hawkeye7   (discuss)  11:54, 31 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Link neutron.
 * ✅ Linked. Hawkeye7   (discuss)  11:54, 31 August 2021 (UTC)
 * And chain reaction.
 * ✅ Linked. Hawkeye7   (discuss)  11:54, 31 August 2021 (UTC)
 * "about 25 kg, while that of plutonium would be about 5 kg" converts?
 * An odd thing about the old measurements: weights of base metals are in avoirdupois ounces, precious metals in troy ounces, fissile metals in grams. Hence,no conversion required. Hawkeye7   (discuss)  11:54, 31 August 2021 (UTC)
 * "17.5 cm and a thickness of 11.3 cm, for a mass of 317 kg" same.
 * ✅ Converted. Hawkeye7   (discuss)  11:54, 31 August 2021 (UTC)
 * "Tungsten carbide has ..." you previously told us this was WC, why not use that?
 * Dislike using chemical symbols when names are available. The symbol tells you its composition, without having to check out the other article, which is why I included it. Hawkeye7   (discuss)  11:54, 31 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Link depleted uranium.
 * ✅ Linked. Hawkeye7   (discuss)  11:54, 31 August 2021 (UTC)
 * "are obvious advantages" delete obvious.
 * ✅ Deleted. Hawkeye7   (discuss)  11:54, 31 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Is Uranium-238 linked?
 * ✅ Is now. Hawkeye7   (discuss)  11:54, 31 August 2021 (UTC)
 * "megaelectronvolts" consider linking this too, not exactly a common unit.
 * ✅ Linked. Hawkeye7   (discuss)  11:54, 31 August 2021 (UTC)
 * "is 14.1 kg, compared with 52.5 kg in " convert.
 * "the W-88 warhead" neither the image or linked article hyphenates W88.
 * ✅ Image does. De-hyphenated. Hawkeye7   (discuss)  11:54, 31 August 2021 (UTC)
 * "an atomic weight nearly" overlinked.
 * ✅ Unlinked. Hawkeye7   (discuss)  11:54, 31 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Link boron(-10).
 * ✅ Linked. Hawkeye7   (discuss)  11:54, 31 August 2021 (UTC)
 * And plutonium(-239).
 * ✅ Linked. Hawkeye7   (discuss)  11:54, 31 August 2021 (UTC)
 * "and ionizes at" first mention of "ionize" since the lead and you didn't link it in the lead.
 * ✅ Linked. Hawkeye7   (discuss)  11:54, 31 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Can we link British nuclear tests at Maralinga?
 * ✅ Linked. Hawkeye7   (discuss)  11:54, 31 August 2021 (UTC)


 * I would have liked to link to an article on diffusion theory, but it redirections to Radiative transfer equation and diffusion theory for photon transport in biological tissue - the very problem (redirects going to inappropriate places) that caused me to write this article in the first place.
