Sadly, this key Operation Majestic Titan article is no longer at the current standards. I voiced concerns on the article's talk page over a year and a half ago, but the only activity there since has been an IP raising minor accuracy concerns. As a MILHIST regular, I regret having to take this here, but I lack the sources and subject matter knowledge to resolve this concerns myself. Hopefully the outcome of Wikipedia:Featured article review/Ironclad warship/archive1 can be avoided. Hog Farm Talk 22:53, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I just skimmed the article's sourcing and agree that there are major formatting issues for the cites and bibliography. I can fix all that pretty easily. I'll see what more needs to be done after I do that and look at your comments on the talk page.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 00:24, 28 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Man, I just started trying to figure out which actual book goes with some of the cites and I can't match them up! Furthermore, some of the pages cited don't relate to the material cited at all. I just deleted them and will cite them properly as I find time.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 02:24, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Sturm, is that work that you anticipate could be done within FAR? Nikkimaria (talk) 17:22, 14 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I think so; I'll try not to drag it out as long as I did for Wisconsin and Missouri.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 20:58, 14 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Sturm, any update on status here? Nikkimaria (talk) 14:41, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'm in the process of moving, so little to nothing until December--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 09:18, 12 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @Nikkimaria, I intend to work on this. On my read through I see 20 small paragraphs which don't have citations. Also, there are a few long paragraphs which only have 1 citation, so I will try to add more. Matarisvan (talk) 14:11, 10 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
