- Striking ALT0, as it is too vague and subjective. How is "success" measured? Striking ALT2 and ALT3 because they are not phrased as a question, and again subjective characterization as "succesful". buidhe 00:39, 9 June 2020 (UTC)
- Remove strikes. put in question marks. You could have done that too, User:Buidhe 7&6=thirteen (☎) 12:05, 9 June 2020 (UTC)

- Consider changing in the hook the words the Sea Harrier to a short take-off and vertical landing jet fighter and then linking those words to British Aerospace Sea Harrier.--Doug Coldwell (talk) 21:18, 10 June 2020 (UTC)
- In my suggestion maybe even just link "jet fighter" to British Aerospace Sea Harrier.--Doug Coldwell (talk) 21:35, 10 June 2020 (UTC)

Full review needed. BlueMoonset (talk) 17:56, 10 July 2020 (UTC)
This article is new enough and long enough. Approving ALT1 and ALT4, with or without Doug Coldwell's suggestion. The hook facts are cited inline, the article is neutral and I detected no copyright issues. A QPQ has been done. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 19:58, 10 July 2020 (UTC)
