Luceyg Background[edit]

I was the Project Leader on the Army Vortex Ring Gun program in 1998, and I am available to answer questions regarding the article by email at [email protected]

Request For Editorial Review[edit]

A request was made on 27 Aug 11 on the talk page of Marcus Qwertyus since he had performed earlier reviews. Corrections completed on on 31 Aug 11 placed references after punctuation, removed a citation on an image, and removed links from within the article to a Links section.

The format was improved as suggested by Qwertyus, and RCButcher Talk was asked on 14 Sep 11 to provide an upgrade in rating from History C class.

Hawkeye7 was asked on 3 June 2012 for an example of how the article referencing can be improved to B Class or higher.

Improving the Article[edit]

To get the article up to B class, it needs to be fully referenced. The inline references, like in academic works, pertain to the text that precedes them. There must be at least one per paragraph, but a single reference can cover an entire paragraph. I have added "citation needed" tags where additional references need to go. Replace them with a reference that covers what the text says. You probably have these at hand, so this should be straightforward.

Once all the citation required tags are gone, leave a note at Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/Assessment/Requests, and one of the military history project members will come along and update the assessment.

A higher rating requires a formal review. See Wikipedia:Good article nominations for details about how to nominate for a good article review. But don't try this before you get your B rating; you'll only be asked to complete the referencing as a first step.

You can ask any further questions you may have by commenting here. The talk page is for discussion of how to improve the article. Hawkeye7 (talk) 21:50, 3 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
