Taking this one. Review to follow after the Bot runs. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 21:38, 9 April 2021 (UTC) Look pretty good. Some comments:
- Link River Tyne, Ministry of Defence (United Kingdom), Southampton, Portsmouth, satellite navigation, pintle, Falkland Islands, aircraft carrier, Port Stanley, English Channel
- Done - Dumelow (talk) 11:12, 28 April 2021 (UTC)
- European Ferries is a duplicate link.
- Delinked - Dumelow (talk) 11:12, 28 April 2021 (UTC)
- Commas after Netherlands, England, Sierra Leone, Southampton, Northern Ireland, India (MOS:GEOCOMMA)
- I got these, I think - Dumelow (talk) 11:12, 28 April 2021 (UTC)
- Little bit confused here, probably because my geography of the UK is so bad. Was it built at the Neptune Yard at Walker-on-Tyne, or the Wallsend West Yard at Wallsend?
- Sounds like your knowledge is better than mine! I confused the company HQ (Wallsend) with the yard (Neptune, at Walker). Now fixed - Dumelow (talk) 11:12, 28 April 2021 (UTC)
- Any idea of the size of the crew?
- Found the original crew in Clegg and added - Dumelow (talk) 11:12, 28 April 2021 (UTC)
fitted with pintle-mounted Bren light machine guns as a rudimentary defence against low-level air attack
That would work well against a modern jet aircraft.
- Indeed, suspect it was largely of psychological benefit! - Dumelow (talk) 11:12, 28 April 2021 (UTC)
Europic Ferry was one of the first vessels to be identified by the Ministry of Defence as required for the campaign, it was earmarked for use as a stores transport ship in early April.

- Capitalise "Chinook"
- Done - Dumelow (talk) 11:12, 28 April 2021 (UTC)
- Suggest "HMS Hermes"
- Done - Dumelow (talk) 11:12, 28 April 2021 (UTC)
- Med Link Lines is red-linked but Howill Shipping is not?
- Redlinked Howill and Namora, not familiar with them but they seem reasonable targets for articles - Dumelow (talk) 11:12, 28 April 2021 (UTC)
She sailed for the United Kingdom on 23 June carrying returning troops of 2nd and 3rd Battalion, Parachute Regiment.

- Hi Hawkeye7. Sorry I forgot to watchlist this, so I missed your review. I'm just waiting for a copy of Clegg (1969) which should arrive in the next week or so before I look at this one again. Many thanks - Dumelow (talk) 06:50, 23 April 2021 (UTC)
- Hi Hawkeye7, I've added a few more details from Clegg and hopefully addressed your comments above. Cheers - Dumelow (talk) 11:12, 28 April 2021 (UTC)
