@Delta fiver: Please note that I am not reviewing this article for C or B class. My comments are only to point out ways to improve the article. Djmaschek (talk) 04:02, 27 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The introduction uses the term "Tamil Tigers" in capital letters. When referring to the "sea tigers" throughout the article, "tiger" should be in caps ("Tiger").
The article explains what LTTE means, but in a way that is easy to miss. The first sentence under Prelude states, "The LTTE sea tigers were the naval branch of the Liberation Tamil Tigers of Eelam, who fought against the Sri Lankan Navy for independence up until 2009." It would be clearer to write, "The sea Tigers were the naval branch of the Liberation Tamil Tigers of Eelam (LTTE), who fought against the Sri Lankan Navy for independence until 2009." After that, people who read the article will know what LTTE means.
"Point Pedro(Jaffna) and Trincomalee" should be "Point Pedro (Jaffna) and Trincomalee", with a space before the parenthesis.

Thank you I will make the improvements. Delta fiver (talk) (UTC) 13:56, 27 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
