I will review this shortly. Regards, AustralianRupert (talk) 10:06, 7 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Initial comments: G'day, Sturm, looks pretty good. I have the following comments/suggestions: AustralianRupert (talk) 11:06, 7 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • the references appear to be reliable (no action required)
  • in the lead, the link to "Dakar" has been cut off to just "akar"
  • July Attack on Mers-el-Kébir --> "July attack on Mers-el-Kébir"
  • I couldn't find the 10 May 1940 commissioning date in the body, although it is mentioned in the infobox
  • the armistice with the Germans is mentioned in the lead, but not in the body
  • the attack on Mers-el-Kebir is mentioned in the lead, but not the body
  • the German occupation of Vichy France is mentioned in the lead, but not in the body
  • the lead says it was the Germans who scuttled the ship as a blockship, but they aren't mentioned in the body
  • encountered only an unidentified British destroyer: this source says the British destroyer was HMS Wrestler: [1]
  • do we know who refloated the ship? Was it a private company?
  • inconsistent spelling: draft v. draught
  • Rohwer is included in the References but not used
  • there are no dabs, there are no issues with ext links (there are none)
  • "File:Scuttled Le Hardi class NH 110745.tiff": has a PD-US-Navy tag, although it would have been taken at a time when it is unlikely a US sailor would have been able to do so. I think this is ok, if we are saying it was taken by someone working for the organisation as an intelligence agent (I base this on the source page that says " received from the Office of Naval Intelligence"). Is that your take, as well?
