GA Review

Below is my review of the page.

It is reasonably well written.
a (prose): b (MoS):
It is factually accurate and verifiable.
a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
Just a thing, in the table, it says, SM sunk 2505 GRT, whereas in the infobox it says, it sunk 2189 GRT. Please remove the ambiguity.
Well, when I looked into it, it seemed that the numbers all matched the source, but then I figured it out: On the U-boat's page at Uboat.net, it breaks the figures into "sunk", "damaged", "prize", while on the ships hit page it only has totals for "sunk" and "damaged". Apparently, the ships hit page includes the tonnage of prizes into the "sunk" total. I had never noticed that, so thank you for catching it. Any way, I've now changed the table caption to say "Sunk or captured". — Bellhalla (talk) 14:59, 15 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects): b (focused):
It follows the neutral point of view policy.
Fair representation without bias:
It is stable.
No edit wars etc.:
It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
Do you think picture of smacks would be useful here? because major chunk of damage done was on smacks.
I added a picture of a smack towards the bottom. I was a little hesitant to add it farther down since most of the UB I boats sank the smacks early and other ships later, but since UB-17' last victim was also a smack, it fits well towards the bottom. — Bellhalla (talk) 14:59, 15 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Overall:
Pass/Fail:
