Lede and infobox

[edit]
  • What happened to the six later orders? Neither main text nor lede mentions their fate
  • What's the WD.27? The only mention is in the lede header
  • The idea that it is "long range" is in lede and infobox but not clearly mentioned in main text, suggest adding a word or two to ensure this is cited

Background and description

[edit]
  • While I am aware of your reluctance to repeat content in the lede in main text for short articles, I really think you need to do more of it here. The lede is a summary of the main text, not an introduction to it. Please add mention of WWI, the Imperial German Navy, and the tractor-pusher nature of the engines. This content is currently uncited, being only present in the lede
  • Link Otto Philipp if that's the correct one?
  • Link Zeppelin-Staaken
  • Link Zeppelin-Staaken R.VI
  • "bombardardier's" sp
  • "Balanced ailerons..." for this and the following sentence, do we know what impact these features/changes had?
  • You name a lot of different roles for the aircraft, which I assume will have been shared by the crew. To avoid confusion, could you mention the crew complement earlier than the "Specifications" section?
  • What's a gravity tank?

@Sturmvogel 66: Hi, that's all I have for now. Pickersgill-Cunliffe ([[User talk:|talk]]) 13:40, 2 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Pickersgill-Cunliffe: See if my changes are satisfactory.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 19:50, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Sturmvogel 66: Passing this as satisfying the GA criteria. I expect Zeppelin-Staaken 8301 might turn blue in the future! Pickersgill-Cunliffe (talk) 20:00, 12 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I rather expect it might, although probably not right away.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 23:51, 12 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
