Will look at this one. —Ed!(talk) 16:13, 12 January 2019 (UTC)
- It is reasonably well written:
- Dup links, dab links, copyvio and external links tools all show no problems.
- It is factually accurate and verifiable:
- Source spotchecks Refs 1, 3 and 10 all back up material in the article.
- It is broad in its coverage:
- Not yet
- Day Bombing Squadron -- Any number on how many were assigned to the unit or how many pilots?
- Total figures for the entire CAF are stated in the source, but nothing more detailed. Kges1901 (talk) 09:40, 18 January 2019 (UTC)
- "Retroactively redesignated as No. 2 (Training) Squadron on 1 April, the squadron was reformed a year later[3] as an advanced training unit, but due to a lack of aircraft, funding, and personnel it only existed on paper.[9]" -- Was it to be organized at a certain location or base?
- That is not stated in the source, because it would seem that its organization was at a very rudimentary stage. Only two traiing bases were organized as units at this time. Kges1901 (talk) 11:26, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
- Army co-operation squadron -- Might be useful to add a line to begin this section about the military buildup that prompted this unit's formation.
- Done. Kges1901 (talk) 10:41, 18 January 2019 (UTC)
- "During 1937, the squadron was the most active RCAF unit" -- is there some number that can quantify this statement? Flights or other activity? "most active" needs some clarity.
- There is nothing to quantify this in the source, presumably the source states this because of how much they did. Kges1901 (talk) 20:28, 21 January 2019 (UTC)
- Same section, is there any number of how many people or pilots in the unit? Or maybe any number of how many it trained? Or how many were trained service-wide in the time? Can be a footnote.
- Added a strength from the ORB in October 1939. Kges1901 (talk) 02:10, 31 January 2019 (UTC)
- Not yet
- It follows the neutral point of view policy:

- On hold Pending a few fixes. —Ed!(talk) 16:43, 12 January 2019 (UTC)
