The nominators have done such good work preparing this series of articles, I'll just go ahead and review them all. Reviews should be up in the next few days. -

GA review (see
here for what the criteria are, and
here for what they are not)
I'll have to AGF on the offline book sources, but online sources appear to confirm the substance of the article. Uboat.net isn't necessarily a reliable source, but it claims that its details come from the British National Archives, and I guess I'm willing to accept that.
The article seems to cover all the major aspects of the topic (design, construction, service history), and doesn't get lost in any excessive detail. It's a minor detail and might seem obvious, but I wish the text that discusses the boat's name pointed out that all the S-class subs were given names that begin with 'S'. It also only names one of Strategem's five different commanders listed in the Uboat.net source; they should all be listed if any is going to be.
Good point, removed. Naming all the ships in a class with the same letter is a common naming practice, especially for the RN. See

Only one tiny detail, and this one will be ready for promotion! -

Fair enough removing the listed commander; the article would be more thorough if it discussed all of her commanders rather than none, but it doesn't appear that any were notable, so I think it works for GA. I retract my request for a comment about 'S'-names, so this article is promoted to GA!
