1. Well-written:
  1a. the prose is clear, concise, and understandable to an appropriately broad audience; spelling and grammar are correct.
  • please replace the Background section with the Background section from the Battle of Kusonje article, except if there are differences in content
  • I will c/e the rest as part of this review
    • Lead Y
    • Background (see above) Y
    • Prelude Y
    • Order of battle Y
    • Timeline Y
    • Aftermath Y
  1b. it complies with the Manual of Style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation.
2. Verifiable with no original research:
  2a. it contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline.
  2b. reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose).
  2c. it contains no original research.
3. Broad in its coverage:
  3a. it addresses the main aspects of the topic.
  • were the weapons being transported from Hungary purchased by the Croatian government, what sort of weapons?
    • The sources don't say. An educated guess would be that the weapons were likely purchased by or for the government, at least the planes were operated by government owned companies. Considering their relatively low payload capacity, I'd guess small arms, but both of those are no more than guesses.--Tomobe03 (talk) 02:04, 7 December 2014 (UTC)Reply
  • did the YAF attacks damage or destroy any Croatian aircraft? What aircraft conducted these attacks? What damage was caused to the airfield facilities?
    • According to Trifunović, YAF sortied two planes from Bihać AFB - which had at its disposal only MiG-21s. That would make an odd selection of craft, but not one unheard of during the war. Trifunović says nothing on the type of the craft explicitly though. One An-2 was destroyed, a "small crater" was made on the runway and the rest of the bombs landed in a nearby cornfield. The damage can be reliably sourced, but I'm not too keen on "inferred identification" of the jets. The article could say the planes sortied from Željava Air Base and let the readers infer that on their own. Any suggestion?--Tomobe03 (talk) 02:04, 7 December 2014 (UTC)Reply
  3b. it stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style).
  4. Neutral: it represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each.
  5. Stable: it does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute.
6. Illustrated, if possible, by media such as images, video, or audio:
  6a. media are tagged with their copyright statuses, and valid non-free use rationales are provided for non-free content.
  6b. media are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions.
  7. Overall assessment. Placing on hold for seven days for remaining points to be addressed. Peacemaker67 (crack... thump) 06:53, 7 December 2014 (UTC) Passing. Well done, suggest you take this to ACR. Peacemaker67 (crack... thump) 23:06, 7 December 2014 (UTC)Reply
