This is not a full review, but the article is currently a stub and fails the WP:DYKCOMPLETE criteria. One of the reasons it is at WP:MERGEPROP is because the topic of the article is already covered more thoroughly at Phalanx CIWS#Centurion C-RAM. I think we would need to see the article significantly expanded in order to feature it at DYK. If content is merged from the Phalanx CIWS to the Centurion C-RAM article, I would argue that this isn't even a "new article". And we would need to see a 5x expansion from the prose size of the original section on this topic in the Phalanx CIWS article to feature it at DYK.4meter4 (talk) 16:11, 25 April 2024 (UTC)

- No problem, at the point it was nominated it was rated C-class, no opinion on the rating change. As for the newness, it was a new article (moved from sandbox) when I nominated it, and it seemed to me that would be acceptable as 'new' under DYK policy, I don't see anything about splits in the DYK criteria.

- Expanding now that it has survived, I think that a split of an article (especially given that the content is completely different) should be considered new, as mot other notable articles are mentioned at other places. I am not sure, but plan on trying to expand it to GA levels in the future (summer break) so if it is not that would be ok with me.Geardona (talk to me?) 23:43, 8 May 2024 (UTC)

Is "Centurion C-RAM" actually the name of the weapon? edit
Raytheon called it Centurion Land-Based Phalanx Weapon System in their press release. GraemeLeggett (talk) 11:29, 4 April 2024 (UTC)
- Yes and no, Centurion appears to be the common name, used in a couple of the other articles, but its actual name is the “Centurion Land-Based Phalanx Weapon system. Also called Centurion LBWs or Centurion C-RAM. Geardona (talk to me?) 12:51, 4 April 2024 (UTC)
Stub class edit
The body of the article is below 1500 characters, making this a clear stub. Plus there are enough gaps in content to make this questionably not even start class.4meter4 (talk) 23:34, 29 April 2024 (UTC)
