Comments

[edit]

The article is in good shape. I have only minor comments:

  • "The aircraft killed 20 members of Maki's crew and 4 rescuees " - the source says that 31 of her crew were killed, along with 4 rescuees
  •  Done
  • "but spent the rest of the war in the Seto Inland Sea on escort duties" - most of the Combined Fleet was immobilised in the Inland Sea by this time of the war due to fuel shortages. The source doesn't say that she actually undertook escort duties, so this statement either needs another source or to be adjusted.
  •  Done
  • "Together with her sister ship Kaya and the destroyer Hanazuki, Maki helped to escort the battleship Yamato through the Inland Sea on 6 April." - I'd suggest noting that this was the battleship's final sortie, and that Maki only escorted it as far as the Bungo Strait
    I added the bit about Bungo Strait and that the Yamato was headed for a suicide attack; I wasn't sure how to mention that the attack was intercepted without losing focus on Maki, but the "suicide attack" should sufficiently cover that it was her last voyage.
