I'll do this one. Comments to follow. Zawed (talk) 21:55, 14 December 2013 (UTC)

Having looked at it now, not much to nitpick here.

History:

• "On 10 May it re-formed as No. 482 (Maintenance) Squadron...": presumably this is 10 May 1946
  • Dealt with via para re-jig (below).
• Only one of three ranks mentioned are wikilinked.
  • Sorry, SQNLDR should definitely have been linked; re. the last one, when the rank is for a notable with a linked article I prefer not to link the rank, partly because the person is the key thing and also because I think separate adjacent links are considered best avoided.
• Just a suggestion (not an issue for GA) but I think the paragraphs could be broken down a little more to help with narrative flow. Eg, the sentence beginning 10 May could mark the start of a new paragraph which includes the first few sentences of the following paragraph. These feel like they "belong" together. The "In October 1950" could mark the start of another paragraph dealing with the period during which the squadron serviced Canberras.
  • Heh, I did toy with the idea of starting a new para at the point 4RSU was re-formed as 482SQN, so no prob with this.

References:

• Stephens (note 9) is not listed in the references.
  • Oops, tks!

Other stuff:

• No dab links.
• No duplicate links.
• Checklinks suggest the link to the Masters thesis requires registration but I was able to download it so probably not an issue.
  • Yes, I used the EL checker myself when I watched this page after nominating and found exactly the same thing -- bit of a furphy...
• Image tags look appropriate, including the non-free one.

I'll check back in a few days. Cheers. Zawed (talk) 22:22, 14 December 2013 (UTC)
