Perhaps a style thing, but it seems that British ranks aren't linked but German ones are?
I've delinked grand admiral as the concept seems straightforward, but kept Kapitän zur See linked as this seems a less readily understandable concept. Nick-D (talk) 05:40, 1 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Also a little inconsistency with how German ranks are presented, some in English and some German, e.g. Kapitän zur See Karl Topp commanded Tirpitz at this time.
I've stuck with the English language term for Großadmiral and the German term for Kapitän zur See as 'grand admiral' has a direct translation while Kapitän zur See does not. Nick-D (talk) 05:40, 1 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Manned torpedoes were used by the Italian Regia Marina...: suggest "Manned torpedoes were used by the Regia Marina (Italian Navy)" for consistency with presentation/translation of Kriegsmarine earlier in article
Sources look reliable (I am quite familiar with Bishop, Chesneau, Sweetman, and Chesneau) and predominantly published in the last 11 years
Image tags are all OK
Strictly a suggestion but perhaps add another image, maybe an additional one of a Chariot, to the Voyage to Trondheimsfjorden/Trondheimsfjorden sections
I've added another image. There are surprisingly few useful and clearly PD images related to the topic of this article on Commons. Nick-D (talk) 05:40, 1 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I did a few little tweaks as I went through and spotted what I thought were errors, check you are OK with these.
That's it for me. Cheers, Zawed (talk) 02:51, 19 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Zawed: I'm sorry about my slow response to your excellent review. I've been crazy-busy at work, and haven't had much time for Wikipedia editing. Nick-D (talk) 08:51, 27 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Zawed: Sorry again for the delays, but I think that I've now responded to all your comments above. Thank you again. Nick-D (talk) 05:40, 1 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Nick, this looks all good, so passing as a GA now as I believe this meets the necessary criteria. Cheers, Zawed (talk) 09:36, 4 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Overall: The copy vio check identified quotes and some multiple-word combinations, like prisoner of war. There were also some like "the crew would then attempt" or versions of this. No issues found. The only question is whether to use an image. –CaroleHenson (talk) 23:45, 16 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Nick-D and Onegreatjoke:, This is a very well-written and interesting article. Loved it. The hook is good. I am just wondering, what do you think of having an image of the Tirpitz or a Chariot manned torpedo for the DYK?–CaroleHenson (talk) 23:45, 16 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Probably not the best option for a group of DYK hooks given that there aren't any photos of the Chariots involved in this option (and the generic photos aren't great) or Tirpitz at the location this took place. Nick-D (talk) 09:20, 17 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
