Requests for assessment
[edit]Editors can self-assess articles against the five B-class criteria(FAQ) up to and including C-Class. If you have made significant improvements to an article against one or more of B-class criteria and would like an outside opinion on a new rating for it, please feel free to list it below, specifying which criteria you have worked on. If you feel unable to assess against one or more of the B-class criteria, please say so when posting. Requests for formal A-Class review should be made at the review department. Please consider entering articles you have improved in the military history article writing contest.
Experienced assessors are encouraged to take a look at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Military history/Coordinators#AutoCheck report for August and check a few of ≈ B-Class assessments. Feel free to downgrade them if you consider they don't meet one or more the criteria. Please also delete any that you have checked. See also Wikipedia:WikiProject Spaceflight/Assessment, whose articles often overlap with military history topics.
ADD NEW REQUESTS AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS SECTION AND BEFORE THE LINE FOR THE BACKLOG CHECK REQUEST
- Please assess: Fort Riley. The article was previously reviewed and found to meet all criteria, with the exception of insufficient citations. I have since added citations (although there are still a few CN tags) and expanded parts of the article. Thanks! Wikipedialuva (talk) 00:26, 13 September 2024 (UTC)
- @Wikipedialuva: I removed the lengthy note because you have been online and working on article. Please resubmit when CN tags cleared. Thanks. Donner60 (talk) 03:05, 18 September 2024 (UTC)
- Otto Kretschmer — German naval officer, I did some copy editing, looks to me like more than start-class. I would like a second opinion. Thanks MisterBee1966 (talk) 09:42, 20 September 2024 (UTC)
- The Start class was inconsistent with the individual item assessments, so I've assessed as C. There is one dubious-discuss tag on the article, although there is no discussion on the Talk page. I'm not familiar enough with the subject to see what is dubious (his receipt of an Iron Cross? Doenitz' attendance at the ceremony?). That is the only thing blocking a B rating.

- The issue is that the image caption has him receiving his Knight's Cross from Grossadmiral Raeder but the text says that he received it from Dönitz. (There is no discussion on the talk page - the issue is in a comment in the article source - hate that). @MisterBee1966: should be able to resolve this.
