I think the article somewhat one-sidedly is written from the British point of view. Based on Dutch contemporary sources I have added a paragraph to the Aftermath section (which also gives a source for the Dutch casualties aboard the Argo) giving the contemporary Dutch point of view, which emphasizes the British violations of international law (attack without declaration of war and violation of Danish neutrality, which Denmark would have been obligated to defend).-- Ereunetes ( talk) 22:22, 17 December 2017 (UTC)
