- B. It complies with the manual of style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation:
- In the lead, "November 24th 1981" needs to be fixed to "November 24, 1981" and any other dates that are formatted with "th" need to be fixed, per here. Also, this article is not International, so fix "24 November 1981" ---> "November 24, 1981". Also, dates are not supposed to be linked, per here. In the Events preceding the attack section, italicize "Paradise Lost", per here. The article has a red link, if it doesn't link to anything, unlink it, per here.
