Hello! I will be reviewing this article. --Cerebellum (talk) 01:17, 15 August 2015 (UTC)
@Tomandjerry211: Article looks good! It's pretty short so I don't have many comments but here they are. I'll put this on hold for now until we can address the concerns below.
- Other changes were the differences between the half-track that they were based on. I'm not sure you need this, it kind of goes without saying.
Done - When you start talking about the M4 in the first paragraph, find a way to introduce it so readers have some context - something like "The M21 was the replacement for the M4 MMC, Done
- In Development, you start by talking about the M4 and don't mention the M21 until the second paragraph. You need to introduce the M4 so readers have some context, something like The M21 was the replacement for the M4 MMC, whihc was used from xxxx to xxxx (if that's accurate). Done
- In the lead, you talk about how the 81 mm mortar had insufficient power, but you don't mention that in the body. --Cerebellum (talk) 23:00, 21 August 2015 (UTC) Done
@Tomandjerry211: Always a pleasure working with you! Pass. --Cerebellum (talk) 11:46, 22 August 2015 (UTC)

M21 Mortar Motor Carriage → M21 mortar carrier – Much more common name. Dicklyon (talk) 01:39, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
- Note on data – n-grams show "mortar carrier" is by far more common than other variations. Here are books with "M21 mortar *", which are not common enough to show up in n-grams. Dicklyon (talk) 01:45, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
- Support Per WP:AT, WP:NCCAPS, MOS:CAPS, WP:MILCAPS and Nom's evidence. Proposed name is more common than present name and the proposed name is not consistently capped in sources. Also, we don't cap what comes after the M-number unless it is a proper name like M4 Sherman tank. Cinderella157 (talk) 09:04, 29 October 2024 (UTC)
