Assessment for B-class

[edit]

B
  1. The article is suitably referenced, with inline citations. It has reliable sources, and any important or controversial material which is likely to be challenged is cited. Any format of inline citation is acceptable: the use of <ref> tags and citation templates such as {{cite web}} is optional.

    2. A few minor items outstanding. Good enough for B-class. checkY
  2. The article reasonably covers the topic, and does not contain obvious omissions or inaccuracies. It contains a large proportion of the material necessary for an A-Class article, although some sections may need expansion, and some less important topics may be missing.

    3. Looks OK. No obvious omissions. checkY
  3. The article has a defined structure. Content should be organized into groups of related material, including a lead section and all the sections that can reasonably be included in an article of its kind.

    4. Structure seems appropriate. checkY
  4. The article is reasonably well-written. The prose contains no major grammatical errors and flows sensibly, but it does not need to be "brilliant". The Manual of Style does not need to be followed rigorously.

    5. Looks OK to me. checkY
  5. The article contains supporting materials where appropriate. Illustrations are encouraged, though not required. Diagrams and an infobox etc. should be included where they are relevant and useful to the content.

    6. Looks OK to me, reasonable number of appropriate images. checkY
  6. The article presents its content in an appropriately understandable way. It is written with as broad an audience in mind as possible. Although Wikipedia is more than just a general encyclopedia, the article should not assume unnecessary technical background and technical terms should be explained or avoided where possible.

    7. Looks OK to me. checkY

Looks good for B-class. • • • Peter (Southwood) (talk): 12:00, 1 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

First diving helmets

[edit]

Hi all, wondering if it would be beneficial to amend the section about Edmond Halley's diving bell to include mention that the first true diving helmets were also invented by him, and would have been attached to the air supply inside the diving bell. This is often credited to the Deane brothers, who did create the first well-known and commercially-available design. Halley's were very much simple buckets attached to a hose. I'll work on finding good sources, but diagrams should be accessible if you google "Edmond Halley diving helmets". — Preceding unsigned comment added by Divingenthusiast2005 (talk • contribs) 14:56, 20 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
