Operation Postmaster

 * Nominator(s): Jim Sweeney (talk)

I am nominating this article for A-Class review because Operation Postmaster was a small almost unknown Special Operations Executive and British Commando operation. It has been through peer and GA reviews and I believe it is ready for an A Class review. Jim Sweeney (talk) 09:19, 31 August 2010 (UTC)


 * Comments
 * no dab links, ext links all work, alt text is present (no action required);
 * images appear appropriately licenced (no action required);
 * in the lead "Merchant vessel" I think should not be capitalised;
 * in the lead, "audacious" sounds a little like a point of view, unless that is how it has been described;
 * Citation # 3 "Chapell" is a typo, which should be "Chappell";
 * Citation # 26 is a bare url and should be formatted (either with the cite web template or some other way of hiding the url chain) and including the title, publisher and accessdate;
 * some of the works in the Bibliography don't have locations, if you can find them they should be added in (if you can't find them, that is okay and I won't hold it against the review). AustralianRupert (talk) 10:40, 1 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Reply all done thanks for the review. --Jim Sweeney (talk) 11:45, 1 September 2010 (UTC)


 * Support: all my concerns have been addressed. AustralianRupert (talk) 22:08, 1 September 2010 (UTC)


 * Support Excellent article and close to FA class. My suggestions for further improvements are:
 * It would be helpful to explain the Small Scale Raiding Force's role in greater detail
 * I'm still surprised the large quantities of stuff which were listed as being carried by Duchessa d'Aosta - have you checked this against the source to see if it explains whether the cargo manifold was accurate? Nick-D (talk) 07:30, 2 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes - It is what was supposed to be in the hold before the raid. There is nothing at all from after she was borrowed to say if it was accurate.--Jim Sweeney (talk) 13:31, 2 September 2010 (UTC)


 * Support -- succinct account of an interesting episode -- well done! Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 14:05, 4 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the support. --Jim Sweeney (talk) 18:28, 4 September 2010 (UTC)
