I'll get to this shortly.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 12:24, 10 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Images appropriately licensed
Hyphenate short service, air raid shelter

Done. Zawed (talk) 10:40, 4 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

A bit too much detail in the lede, I think

Have trimmed down, how does it sit with you now? Zawed (talk) 10:40, 4 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Tell readers what kind of aircraft a Vildebeest is

Done. Zawed (talk) 10:40, 4 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

No. 103 Squadron; this was one of ten Suggest deleting "this was" to tighten the sentence

Done. Zawed (talk) 10:40, 4 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

In the early life section, no need to link and provide the abbreviation again for Royal Air Force

I think this is a matter of preference. I treat the lede and article body as separate so use abbreviations for first usages in each instance. This follows my preference RE links. Zawed (talk) 10:40, 4 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

There are a fair number of links redundant to the lede scattered through out the article

As above, I think this is a matter of preference. I link a term on first mention in lede and first mention in article body. Wiki's dupelinks tool treats the lede and article body as separate and hence doesn't pick them up as dupe links. Zawed (talk) 10:40, 4 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Performed < served ?

Done. Zawed (talk) 10:40, 4 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Link St Lucien Ferme, sortie, dogfight, fighter sweep, Dekheila

Done, except for St Lucien Ferme, for which there is no link. I have added mention of a nearby town that does have a link so that the reader can get a sense of location. Zawed (talk) 10:40, 4 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

A few minor niggles, but up to your usual standard--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 19:27, 30 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Sturmvogel 66, thanks for looking at this. I have dealt with your various points as above. Cheers, Zawed (talk) 10:40, 4 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
