Initial review

[edit]

Since this article is over 100,000 bytes, this GA review will necessarily take longer than usual. I will submit review comments as I have a chance to read it. There may be more than one set of comments (Review 1, Review 2, etc.) Djmaschek (talk) 04:08, 16 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

It is only 64 kB (10,587 words) "readable prose size" I have added this review to my watch list. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 04:41, 16 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Review 1

[edit]

Please make that following edits or argue your case for not making the change. Thanks. Djmaschek (talk) 21:39, 16 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Introduction, paragraph 3: "In 1941 ... flooded". It makes it seems as though the mine was deliberately flooded in 1941. I think it would be more accurate to write "By 1941 ... flooded" since the Congo mine was closed in 1937 and flooded over time. The Canadian mine closed in 1940 and flooded since then.
    checkY Changed to "became flooded". Hawkeye7 (discuss) 22:52, 16 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • The US Army takes over, paragraph 1, sentence 2: "On 15 September". Add year (1942, I think).
    checkY Yes. Added "1942". Hawkeye7 (discuss) 22:52, 16 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Eldorado mine, last paragraph, sentence 1: "Shortly after to" > "Shortly after".
    checkY Deleted stray word. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 22:52, 16 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Finished through Uranium procurement, Canada. Had to stop.

Review 2

[edit]

@Hawkeye7: Please make the following edits or argue your case for not making the change. Thanks.

  • Europe, paragraph 1, last sentence: "Groves had it shipped..." Please replace "it" with something more specific like "62 tonnes" or "the recovered refined uranium".
    checkY Changed as suggested. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 22:19, 19 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Review finished.
