Reviewer: Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 05:16, 24 August 2010 (UTC) GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria

1. Is it reasonably well written?

   A. Prose quality:

   Spell out and link all acronyms the first time you use them and put the abbreviation next to the term. Convert all metric measurements to English units in the infobox and the main body.

   B. MoS compliance:

   Non-governmental references need publisher information. Press releases are OK.

2. Is it factually accurate and verifiable?

   A. References to sources:

   B. Citation of reliable sources where necessary:

   C. No original research:

3. Is it broad in its coverage?

   A. Major aspects:

   B. Focused:

4. Is it neutral?

   Fair representation without bias:

5. Is it stable?

   No edit wars, etc:

6. Does it contain images to illustrate the topic?

   A. Images are copyright tagged, and non-free images have fair use rationales:

   B. Images are provided where possible and appropriate, with suitable captions:

7. Overall:

   Pass or Fail:

Hello and thanks for the review. I've already provided conversions for all metric measurements and spelled out abbreviations however, i'm not so sure about what you mean by providing publisher information for non-governmental references. According to WP:CITEHOW

Citations for World Wide Web articles typically include:

• name of the author(s)
• title of the article within quotation marks
• name of the website (linked to a Wikipedia article about the site if it exists, or to Website's "about" page)
• date of publication
• page number(s) (if applicable)
• the date you retrieved it (required if the publication date is unknow

All of this info is already provided so what else is needed? --Victor12 (talk) 15:15, 26 August 2010 (UTC)

• • There are no links to the home pages of Interavia, Ixarm, Defense Industry Daily or Ares. That's what I meant by publisher.
    • OK, I've just inserted the links. --Victor12 (talk) 21:59, 26 August 2010 (UTC)

2011 military intervention in Libya

I signal of use for 2011 military intervention in Libya. L'amateur d'aéroplanes, french wiki

I heard about this bomb after the first mali air strikes. On some websites and even in this artikle they are called a 'missle'. From my point of view, a missle as a engine, while a bomb uses the potential height + maybe wings for gliding.

Bomb or missile or neither?

I echo to a certain extant the previous comment. At the bottom of the article in the section on Libya, it calls it a "missile" and a "bomb" several times within a few lines. I think the person who posted above me missed that it DOES include a rocket motor, so it's not solely a bomb, but it is not a missile either. I'd call it a "boosted glide bomb", which also happens to be a precision-guided-munition. Perhaps a clear statement of this would be in order to dispel any confusion? It seems simple enough when one reads the description, but apparently not simple enough for some people. .45Colt 13:39, 30 March 2014 (UTC)

• AASM → Armement Air-Sol Modulaire
• AASM (disambiguation) → AASM

– Per third party search results, I'm not seeing concrete results that the acronym "AASM" primarily refers to the subject currently sitting at the ambiguous title AASM. Most rally's I see are a mix of Australian Active Service Medal and American Academy of Sleep Medicine when looking up the term "AASM". For that reason, the disambiguation page should be moved to the base title (and the subject currently at the base title can be moved to the proposed title per WP:NATURALDIS.) Steel1943 (talk) 23:25, 4 August 2019 (UTC)

• Pageview stats Colin M (talk) 01:26, 5 August 2019 (UTC)
• Not sure what to make of this situation. The pageview stats are such that the weapon would seem to qualify as primary in terms of usage (barely), getting about 3x the monthly views of Australian Active Service Medal and American Academy of Sleep Medicine. That, combined with AASM apparently being the ideal title for this article (and only a redirect candidate for the other two), make me want to say there's nothing broken here. But then, you're right, the search results for 'AASM', surprisingly, don't give anything about the weapon until you dig past the first couple pages. That goes for a web search, a Google Scholar search, and a Google Books search. If a move away from AASM is to be done, another name to consider would be AASM Hammer. It gets about 2x the results on Google News compared to "Armement Air-Sol Modulaire". Colin M (talk) 01:54, 5 August 2019 (UTC)
• Searching for AASM should bring people to the dab page due to lack of primary topic, not to this weapon. They are all initialisations of proper names. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 09:28, 5 August 2019 (UTC)

• Support move of dab page to base name - no indication that this weapon is the primary topic. What the weapon should be moved to, I'm not sure - AASM (weapon) might be appropriate, or its full name as suggested by the proposer. PamD 09:52, 5 August 2019 (UTC)
• Support Doesn't look like the weapon is more important than the other meanings. --McSly (talk) 13:08, 11 August 2019 (UTC)
