Possible edits

[edit]

Hello gentlemen, was just about to do these edits but noticed article was in review so will just park them here.

  • "by large number of bays" - insert 'a'
  • "forces in New Guinea and Solomon Islands" - insert 'the' before Solomon for consistency
  • "which lead to a successful" - led
  • "that this would be was unnecessary" - remove 'would be' or 'was'
  • "and provide support for" - and 'to' provide
  • "and to severe the" - sever
  • should operation dexterity be in the infobox?

Thanks for this article, JennyOz (talk) 03:43, 16 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Thanks, Jenny. I've made these changes, except the last one as I wasn't quite sure where to put it. Also, as far as I'm aware, only the first part of the campaign came under Dexterity, so potentially it might be confusing to add it to the infobox in that regard. Thoughts?

Nope, no thoughts:) I just saw others in there (in the collapsed campaign areas) and wondered. I have no idea how such things work. Thanks and best wishes, JennyOz (talk) 08:56, 16 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
