Comments for nominator
editHi, Simongraham. I have taken interest in this article and thought I would review it. I have found some of what I believe are things that could be improved before I am to move forward in more depth. Firstly, I have taken notice to some excessive micromanagement of different sections. An example of this would be 'Current capabilities', which could possibly either be expanded or merged with 'Aircraft'. Another issue is the 'golf legend' section, which seems to be written in a comical format. Comical may not be the right word but it does seem a bit off. Also it would be nice to see some more citations in the lead, and removal of bold text where not required. Thankyou, if you wouldn't mind pinging me when you respond, that would be appreciated.
- @DeadlyRampage26: Thank you for your comments. I have merged and updated the sections that you mentioned. The golf legend is often mentioned in the literature and so is included to comply with criterion 3a but is in summary as required by 3b. In the lead, the bold text is due to these terms being redirects as per MOS:BOLDALTNAMES. The lead avoids citations as per MOS:CITELEAD. I have expanded the lead, however, in light of new text in the body. I feel your comments have already improved the article and look forward to your review. simongraham (talk) 18:15, 29 September 2024 (UTC)
- Hi, thanks for your response and improvements. I will start the full review. DeadlyRampage26 (talk) 03:37, 30 September 2024 (UTC)

edit| Rate | Attribute | Review Comment |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Well-written: | ||
|
1a. the prose is clear, concise, and understandable to an appropriately broad audience; spelling and grammar are correct. |
Reasonably sized prose. Is UTAABH. Spelling and grammar correct. |
|
|
1b. it complies with the Manual of Style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation. | Complies with MOS. Did some reading on MOS:WAF and as far as I can see the 'golf legend' section complies. |
| 2. Verifiable with no original research, as shown by a source spot-check: | ||
|
|
2a. it contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline. | Bibliography and citation format do comply with guidlines. |
|
2b. reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose). |
Citations are inline, article does a good job of citing sources for specific pieces of information that may not be covered in a broader source. TEND TO RECOMMENDATIONS 1 before I pass this section. |
|
|
2c. it contains no original research. |
Contains no original research, as evident by source titles and small sample spot check. |
|
|
2d. it contains no copyright violations or plagiarism. | After being put through a free online plagiarism checker, checker reports no plagiarism (other than the fact its taken from the article itself obviously). Images present are of general geometric nature, therefore ineligible for copyright as per Wikimedia Commons. Commons page on the plane image indicates it is free use and has no challenges. |
| 3. Broad in its coverage: | ||
|
|
3a. it addresses the main aspects of the topic. |
Article is within scope as per WP:OOS. History areas of the page such as previous air forces of Benin under communist governments etc are accepted, especially as with a small country as Benin it wouldn't be appropriate to have a bunch of independent articles with little information. |
|
|
3b. it stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style). | |
|
|
4. Neutral: it represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each. | |
|
|
5. Stable: it does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute. | |
| 6. Illustrated, if possible, by media such as images, video, or audio: | ||
|
|
6a. media are tagged with their copyright statuses, and valid non-free use rationales are provided for non-free content. | |
|
|
6b. media are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions. | |
|
7. Overall assessment. | |
