I think there may be an issue with the short footnotes used in this article:
Anyway I think these first two points will need to be resolved before the article can pass GA, although the article is looking very good. Cheers.

Hi! I will be reviewing this article for GA status, and should have the full review up shortly. Dana boomer ( talk) 21:43, 4 April 2010 (UTC)
A nice little article, but I have some concerns about the quality of referencing. As such, I am placing this article on hold to allow discusssion and changes. Please let me know if you have any questions. Dana boomer ( talk) 22:35, 4 April 2010 (UTC)
I am sure that the sources are OK. But I don't agree with the first sentence of the section Background; During the Italo-Turkish War, the Italian military feared that Ottoman naval forces in the Mediterranean would stage raid on the Italian supply and troopships headed for Italian East Africa. That concern is unrealistic. Both Egypt and the Suez Canal were under British control (after 1880 s) and British Empire had decleared its neutrality in the war. Actually that was a bit Italian sided neutrality. Because Turkish officiers to Libya over Egypt were not allowed. Likewise, it was unthinkable for Turkish navy to cross British controlled canal. Such a thought was nothing but a fantasy at most. Nedim Ardoğa ( talk) 09:01, 26 April 2010 (UTC)
