The info box says the result of the operation was "soviet victory", but that seems difficult to support given what the article says. 50.24.30.51 ( talk) 02:08, 8 November 2017 (UTC)
The text says the task force was led by Komm. Wilhelm Meendsen-Bohlken, in Scheer, yet the infobox says the commander was Adm. Hubert Schmundt; so which is it? Which one of them was in charge? Also, Schmundt’s page says he was commander of all German naval forces in Northern Norway, but Kemp says he had been replaced as Flag Officer Northern Waters by an Adm. Kluber by this time. Does anybody know for sure? Xyl 54 ( talk) 15:49, 30 September 2022 (UTC)
The infobox stated that the result was "Indecisive, strategic German victory". I've altered this to "limited German success": 'victory' is too strong a term for the outcome, and there was nothing 'strategic' about it; the operation didn't affect Soviet traffic on the Northern Sea Route unduly, and made no difference to the overall strategic position in the Arctic. If anything, it was a strategic failure... Anyway, I've changed it to something more realistic. I trust everyone is OK with that... Xyl 54 ( talk) 15:55, 30 September 2022 (UTC)
Put a lot in from Barr (1975) with more to go and then a copy-edit (them Russian terms are a bit of a novelty). Keith-264 ( talk) 15:35, 2 May 2023 (UTC)
