Underwater diving B‑class

	Underwater diving portal This article is part of WikiProject Underwater diving, an effort to create, expand, organize, and improve Underwater diving-related articles to a feature-quality standard, and to comprehensively cover the topic with quality encyclopedic articles.Underwater divingWikipedia:WikiProject Underwater divingTemplate:WikiProject Underwater divingUnderwater diving
B	This article has been rated as B-class on Wikipedia's content assessment scale.
???	This article has not yet received a rating on the importance scale.

Class B rating

The content of this article was split from the excessively large B-class article Decompression (diving). There was no immediately obvious reason why it should not retain B-class rating as the split section was reasonably complete at the time and suitable for a stand-alone article. • • • Peter (Southwood) ^(talk): 14:37, 14 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Lede intro sect too long

Per WP:LEAD, the lede intro sect should be max four (4) paragraphs.

This one is eight (8) paragraphs.

That's a bit long.

Could cause symptoms of TL;DR.

Strongly suggest trimming it down to size of four, succinct paragraphs, of four or five sentences each.

Good luck,

Suggestions

Sorry this has waited so long for a GA review. I'm not up to it right now but I do have a couple quick suggestions:

In the bulleted time line, choose either present tense (e.g. "Thalmann extends use of E-L model"), past tense ("Dr. Andrew Smith first used the terms"), or noun construction ("Introduction of recompression tables") and stick with one throughout.
Define uncommon terms inline (e.g. "supersaturation") or at least link to articles on them.
Rephrase: "A large number of decompression experiments were performed" it should be a large number was but that sounds weird.

Sorry to just drive by like this, good luck and good work so far! delldot ∇. 03:10, 2 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
