- It is reasonably well written.
- a (prose):
b (MoS):
- Much of the article is still a direct copy of DANFS. What' worse is that the text isn't even attributed to DANFS - this is plagiarism and completely unacceptable.
- Still issues with close paraphrasing - see for instance While approaching her berth in Hagushi anchorage just after sunset on 12 May, New Mexico was attacked by two kamikazes, which is rather close to While she was approaching her berth in the Hagushi anchorage, just after sunset on 12 May, she was attacked by two kamikazes
