I will begin the review shortly.--Catlemur (talk) 16:58, 24 October 2020 (UTC)

• Add Categories: Military units and formations disestablished in 1919 and 1919 disestablishments in the United Kingdom.

  Added EnigmaMcmxc (talk) 02:02, 29 October 2020 (UTC)

• Break ref 55 into into separate ones.

  Separated EnigmaMcmxc (talk) 02:02, 29 October 2020 (UTC)

• Use a comma instead of and in ref 163, for the sake of consistency.

• with the aggressive German Empire→ Remove aggressive, I would argue that all empires at the time were aggressive to a certain degree.

  Done EnigmaMcmxc (talk) 02:02, 29 October 2020 (UTC)

• What was the division's strength at formation?

  I have added an extra line to state what the expected establishment was, and that it was not achieved across the board. I have not found seen a source stating what the division actually achieved (closest being what is the article stating how far below establishment it was).

  Changed EnigmaMcmxc (talk) 02:02, 29 October 2020 (UTC)

• Wikilink creeping barrage

  Link added EnigmaMcmxc (talk) 02:02, 29 October 2020 (UTC)

• "the 165th&nbspBrigade"

  Fixed EnigmaMcmxc (talk) 02:02, 29 October 2020 (UTC)

• Throughout the article yards are converted to miles in some cases but not in others. This should be done consistently.

  Updated to just meters. EnigmaMcmxc (talk) 02:02, 29 October 2020 (UTC)

• Is it comrades' association or Comrades Association?

  "comrades' " is the term used by the source. EnigmaMcmxc (talk) 02:02, 29 October 2020 (UTC)

• practise→practice

  British English verb EnigmaMcmxc (talk) 02:02, 29 October 2020 (UTC)

• Some image captions end in a full stop while others do not. This should be done consistently.

  I have added some, where I believe they are appropriate. Some of the captions are not full sentences, and shouldn't have a period. EnigmaMcmxc (talk) 02:02, 29 October 2020 (UTC)

• Who's Who. London: A & C Black. 1910. → This source is not cited a single time in the article.

  Updated, so it should now show in the references. It was previously used, but showed as "WW".

Thank you for your review. I have attempted to address the various points you have raised above.EnigmaMcmxc (talk) 02:02, 29 October 2020 (UTC)
