I'll review this article PizzaKing13 ¡Hablame! 22:03, 1 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Lead edit

Development and production edit

  • Split "On 14 June 1923, Hürkuş finished the technical drawings of the plane, which was to be used for training and reconnaissance purposes,[1]" and "and showed the project to lieutenant general Muzaffer Ergüder, an inspector in the air force, three days later, on 17 June." into 2 sentences
  • Remove the comma after "three days later"
  • Add "the drawings" after "After inspecting"
  • Remove the comma after "congratulated Hürkuş"
  • "a captured plane" do we know what model plane?
  • "at least 16 hours a day on the plane" → "at least 16 hours a day working on the plane"
  • "He was briefly sent away for a few months" during what months?
  • Remove the comma after "14 months"

Operational history edit

  • Remove the comma after "Seydiköy Airfield"
  • Per MOS:FOREIGNQUOTE, the original Turkish quote for "should hop in and fly if he trusts [his] plane" and "met with lingering" should be included directly after the English translation in parenthesis. ("{{lang|tr|Turkish quote}}")
Since those sources use the Sfn template I can't add the |quote= parameter. I made a work around, please check.
  • "Hürkuş and his plane waited almost a month." what did he wait for and why did he have to wait?
  • Remove the comma after "filled with a crowd"
  • Remove the comma after "was towed to the hangar"
  • Remove the comma after "short jail sentence"
  • "overturned later" → "later overturned"
  • "stayed" → "remained"
  • "His requests to store the plane in an indoor area were also declined" declined by who?
  • "The Turkish Aeronautical Association officially requested" when?
  • "The Vecihi K-VI was later destroyed" when?
The fate of the aircraft after the flight is largly unknown and I don't have a date for this or the suggestion above. I have added a date on when Hürkuş found out that he wouldn't be able to get the plane back in any case. Any effort to return it would likely be before September 1925.
  • Remove the comma after "named the Vecihi K-XIV"

Overall edit

  • Images properly licensed
  • No war edits

  • Broad and focused

@Styyx: Edits look good. I fixed the quote thing myself since it's hard to explain. Good work, I'll pass this review. PizzaKing13 ¡Hablame! 18:20, 2 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
