I'll get to this shortly.-- Sturmvogel 66 ( talk) 03:19, 12 May 2013 (UTC) reply

• Can you get the commander tables to line up underneath their header?
  • Yes, I can. I've also moved them down to the bottom of the article. Hawkeye7 ( talk) 03:39, 15 May 2013 (UTC) reply
• Doesn't File:Bockscar.gif need an OTRS ticket? See Commons:OTRS Other pics look OK.
  • Probably
• Consider moving the aircraft table into the middle of the operational history section because it references several things that aren't explained until the third para of that section.
  • Er, it would get a bit crowded down there. Hawkeye7 ( talk) 03:39, 15 May 2013 (UTC) reply
    • Then move the pictures elsewhere unless you want to explain things like tailcodes and Victor #s in a caption or something. Page numbers are also needed for that table.

More later-- Sturmvogel 66 ( talk) 02:57, 15 May 2013 (UTC) reply

• • • • Page numbers still needed for this table; you've given the book and author. And the table's current position still introduces concepts that aren't explained until later. Suggest moving it to the end of the operational history section.-- Sturmvogel 66 ( talk) 17:35, 19 May 2013 (UTC) reply
        • Done now. Hawkeye7 ( talk) 22:02, 19 May 2013 (UTC) reply

• C-1B Merchant Marine ship isn't really relevant. Redlink the ship's name instead.
  • Other refgerences to this ship on Wikipedia are not red linked, so unlinked it instead. Hawkeye7 ( talk) 22:02, 19 May 2013 (UTC) reply
• What's a target ring and a pre-assembly?
  • Added an explanation. Hawkeye7 ( talk) 01:26, 19 May 2013 (UTC) reply
• Footnotes need cites as do assignments, organization and campaigns.
  • Done. Hawkeye7 ( talk) 01:26, 19 May 2013 (UTC) reply
    • Last sentence of Depictions section needs a cite. Assignments section, Squadron Commander tables and campaign section need cites.-- Sturmvogel 66 ( talk) 17:35, 19 May 2013 (UTC) reply
• Link or explain radar countermeasures.
  • Linked. Hawkeye7 ( talk) 01:26, 19 May 2013 (UTC) reply
• Need place of publication for many books.
  • Done. Hawkeye7 ( talk) 01:26, 19 May 2013 (UTC) reply
    • • Fortunately, I've heard of Coster-Mullen and declare him to be reliable despite his lack of formal credentials and self-publishing. If anybody gives you grief at ACR over him, ping me and I'll explain the situation.-- Sturmvogel 66 ( talk) 17:35, 19 May 2013 (UTC) reply
        • I'm not sure if I will take it to ACR. I normally only do that if I hope to take it to Featured. Do you think it could make featured? Hawkeye7 ( talk) 22:21, 19 May 2013 (UTC) reply
          • You've covered the topic very thoroughly, thanks to impeccable sourcing and the short time covered before it reorganized into a standard VH bomber group. I see no reason why it couldn't pass FA once you add the necessary cites and check the licenses on some of your photos. You'll need to find out if the photographer was an official photographer or just a guy assigned to the unit. I suspect the latter, which greatly complicates the licensing. I'm actually looking forward to the completion of your Manhattan Project good topic although you might want to organize it with some subsidiary lists like List of Manhattan Project scientists, etc. You've been doing great work on that, especially since many of the subjects have a lot written about them that you have to master before you can write the article. In contrast most of my ship articles require significantly less work to take to FA, so I am impressed with your dedication. I hope you can get your department to count it as a publication when reviewing tenure, etc. once you've finished it!-- Sturmvogel 66 ( talk) 23:15, 19 May 2013 (UTC) reply
            • Which photograph are we talking about? And is there anything left to be done? Hawkeye7 ( talk) 20:00, 23 May 2013 (UTC) reply
              • The photographs by Agnew. We're done here.-- Sturmvogel 66 ( talk) 20:29, 23 May 2013 (UTC) reply
    • All points addressed. Hawkeye7 ( talk) 01:26, 19 May 2013 (UTC) reply
