I'll take a look at this shortly. Harrias talk 14:38, 21 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, life got away from me a little. Review below:

References[edit]

  • References all appear to be to reliable sources.
  • References are consistently formatted in an appropriate style.

Images[edit]

  • Only one images is used in the article, which is appropriately licensed and captioned. Consider adding alt text, but this is not a GA requirement.

Prose[edit]

  • No duplicate or disambiguation links.
  • It would be nice to include the date of her sinking in the lead.
  • "..as the IJN intended.." Explain the abbreviation on first use.
  • "The Tachibanas had a range.." Is this a copy and paste error?
    • You betcha!
  • "The ships carried a total of 25 Type 96 25-millimeter (1 in) anti-aircraft guns in 4 triple and 13 single mounts." The infobox says 4 triple and 12 single.
  • "..was returning to Japan on three days later.." No need for "on".
  • "..spotted by a search plane from Task Force 58's Task Group 58.1 (TG 58.1)." Clarify which nation TG 58.1 was with.
  • "..that sank all but one of the cargo ships and damaging three of the escorts." sank/damaging are not the same tense: swap damaging to damaged.
  • "The survivors continue north towards.." And change this to "continued".
  • "The convoy is caught.." "was caught".

A few minor prose issues, but otherwise typically good work. Harrias talk 15:26, 29 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for catching all these niggles.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 19:29, 29 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
