I think this interrupted review can be completed quickly, given the good state of the article at that time and the work done on it to attend to items noted in the earlier review, so I will confine myself largely to checking that the repairs have been completed.

Comments

1. Well written (prose ok, lead ok, layout ok, weasel ok, fiction n/a, lists n/a)

2. Verifiable (list of refs ok, sources ok, OR no sign of it, copyright spot checks ok, plagiarism no sign of it)

3. Breadth (coverage easily more than 'main points', focus excellent)

4. Neutrality ok

5. Stability ok

6. Images (status ok (all commons but for fair-use IWC logo), relevance ok, captions ok)

Concluding remarks

This is a fine article, well up to GA standard. I have fixed a couple of minor issues.

The cladogram would benefit from small images of representatives of the groups concerned - in fact, the images in the column above would be more useful in the cladogram than scattered alongside the text. You might also illustrate the non-marine groups in the cladogram for comparison.

I find the military coverage still somewhat long for the topic, and hinting at a regional viewpoint, but within the guidelines. I would advise trimming it before attempting FAC. Chiswick Chap (talk) 14:46, 30 December 2016 (UTC)
