- "was an attempted German naval raid two of the Allied arctic convoys of World War II" - missing a word?
- Yep, fixed Nick-D (talk) 10:48, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
- "with their torpedoes also missing" - is it known if there was a special cause for these misses as well? Bad aim, or Tirpitz dodging, or was it just an example of the nature of torpedo attacks to sometimes just miss?
- The British aircrew stuffed up the attack by dropping their torpedos at too great a distance - added. Nick-D (talk) 10:48, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
- Should {{Campaignbox Arctic Naval Operations of WWII}} be used instead of {{Campaignbox Norwegian Campaigns (1941–1945)}}
- Yep, done Nick-D (talk) 10:48, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
- Sources are all reliable
- Image licensing looks fine
- I'm assuming that the categorization of this article into two 1944 categories is an error.
- No, it's deliberate - one of the cats is for events in Norway that occurred during the year, and the other is for fighting that took place then. They should sit in different category families. Nick-D (talk) 10:48, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
- @Nick-D: - why 1944 instead of 1942 was my question, just badly worded. Hog Farm Talk 14:14, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
- Argh, I'm an idiot - fixed. I would have taken the cats from one of the articles on the 1944 raids on Tirpitz I developed to FA class. Nick-D (talk) 07:38, 13 August 2021 (UTC)

This is in very good shape. I couldn't find much to pick on, although I don't know as much about WWII as I do other time periods. Hog Farm Talk 02:58, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks a lot for this review. Nick-D (talk) 10:48, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
