GA review (see here for criteria) (see here for this contributor's history of GA reviews)
  1. It is reasonably well written:
    Dup links, dab links, copyvio and external links tools all show no problems.
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable:
    Source spotchecks Refs 1, 3 and 10 all back up material in the article.
  3. It is broad in its coverage:
    Not yet
    • Day Bombing Squadron -- Any number on how many were assigned to the unit or how many pilots?
    • "Retroactively redesignated as No. 2 (Training) Squadron on 1 April, the squadron was reformed a year later[3] as an advanced training unit, but due to a lack of aircraft, funding, and personnel it only existed on paper.[9]" -- Was it to be organized at a certain location or base?
    • Army co-operation squadron -- Might be useful to add a line to begin this section about the military buildup that prompted this unit's formation.
    • "During 1937, the squadron was the most active RCAF unit" -- is there some number that can quantify this statement? Flights or other activity? "most active" needs some clarity.
    • Same section, is there any number of how many people or pilots in the unit? Or maybe any number of how many it trained? Or how many were trained service-wide in the time? Can be a footnote.
  4. It follows the neutral point of view policy:
    Pass No problems there.
  5. It is stable:
    Pass No problems there.
  6. It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate:
    Pass Three images tagged PD as appropriate.
  7. Other:
    On hold Pending a few fixes. —Ed!(talk) 16:43, 12 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
