Webley Revolver
Self-Nomination; This article has been expanded, clarified, re-written, cleaned up, and exhaustively cited since the Previous FAC nomination, and I'm more than satisfied that this article is now definitely FA material as a result. --Commander Zulu 13:03, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
- Support Very detailed article, covers the whole history of the Webley. Looks good with many very nice pictures. Every important part and detail is cited, and as a whole very readable.--LWF 14:32, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
- Support but with a few comments:
- "adopted December 9th, 1913" - the date is not formatted in accordance with WP:MOSDATE.
- "had not been completed with hostilities began" - "with" should be "when" instead.
- "several accessories were developed for the Mk VI, including a bayonet (made from a converted French Pritchard bayonet)[9], a speedloader device ("Prideaux Device")[10], and a stock allowing for the revolver to be converted into a carbine" - I think it would be helpful to link bayonet and carbine here.
- "the .455 calibre Webley Mk VI being especially popular with New Zealand troops fighting in Africa and the Pacific because of the effectiveness and proven stopping power of the round." - why is this (marked as) uncited?
- "Royal Singaporean Police" - weird piped link which is probably inaccurate. I've never heard of Singapore's police force described as "Royal Singaporean Police", not even when Singapore was in British hands.
- I was going to support, but cannot while there are unsourced statements in the article. Resurgent insurgent 16:04, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
