Hi! I am going to be doing the GA review for this article, and I should have the full review up within a few hours. Dana boomer (talk) 23:47, 1 September 2008 (UTC)


 * GA review (see here for criteria)


 * 1) It is reasonably well written.
 * a (prose): b (MoS):
 * In the "Design and construction" section, you say " built by the Skinner & Eddy of Seattle, Washington.[1][Note 1]". Should this be "built by the Skinner & Eddy shipyard", or "built by Skinner & Eddy"?
 * I originally had "Skinner and Eddy Corpoation", hence the extra the. Now removed.
 * In the "Military career" section, you say "other surviving ships of the convoy and arrived at Verdon-sur-mer". Is there supposed be something before "and arrived"?
 * It was missing a "continued on"
 * Same section, you say "After unloading her cargo of flour and her return to the United States,". Perhaps, "cargo of flour and returning to the..."?
 * Better option. Changed.
 * 1) It is factually accurate and verifiable.
 * a (references): b (citations to reliable sources):  c (OR):
 * I see the DANFS article on the Montanan listed in the bibliography section, but not in the references section. Am I missing something?
 * Just an oversight after I went with a different source.
 * 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):
 * 1) Overall:
 * Pass/Fail:

Another well-written article! I am putting the article on hold to allow you time to deal with the few minor quibbles above. Let me know if you have any questions. Dana boomer (talk) 23:58, 1 September 2008 (UTC)
