Yugoslav submarine Mališan edit

This article is about a dinky little midget sub that was built by the Italians for harbour defence and anti-submarine warfare tasks in WWII, but was incomplete at the time of the Italian armistice in September 1943, and ended up being handed over to the Italian Social Republic (rump fascist Italy) by the Germans after capture and completion. Captured by the Yugolavs at the end of the war, they repaired and commissioned her for use as a training boat. In 1953 she became a museum boat (a long way from the sea in Zagreb), and she was recently refurbished. There has been some controversy about returning her to her Italian colours and markings rather than retaining her Yugoslav ones. I nominated it at FAC in February but RW stuff took over and I was unable to address the review comments in a timely way, so the FAC was closed. I believe I have now addressed all the comments that were outstanding (@Nikkimaria, RoySmith, Volcanoguy, and Pickersgill-Cunliffe:, see my edits here), so let's have another go!

Generalissima's comments edit

Aww, this FAC has been sadly ignored thus far! Marking myself down to do a source and image review later. Generalissima (talk) (it/she) 16:16, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Peacemaker67: Aighty! Images first up:

File:Podmornica CB20 (P901).jpg: Creative commons, uploaded as an own work. Looks good all around.
File:CB-20 Caproni U-Boot-Italien 1943 Zagreb TeslaMus 20220617 5.jpg. Ditto.

These are both good, but I feel they might be better if their order was swapped (ie, the restored image is used in the infobox, and the pre-restoration image for context below); since the restored apperance would be closer to the vessel as it would have appeared during its service, no?

And now sources.

Sources are consistently cited using SFNs. Books have ISBNs, and their cites are consistently formatted.
Shouldn't Technical Museum be credited as Nikola Tesla Technical Museum? There's a number of technical museums out there.
Obviously, it's okay to cite the Technical Museum a lot here, since it's obviously going to be an RS.
Obrana i sigurnost appears to be a blog, but it's by a clear subject matter expert, so good to go here.
tportal.hr is the one that gives me pause. This appears to be a news aggregator or portal - but at the same time, I think this article is actually being published on the cite itself, rather than posted from elsewhere. I know it's just used to cite a date, but do you know if this source is subject to any sort of editorial review? (Side note: Machine translation translated the name of the ship as "toddler" and if that's an accurate translation that's the funniest name I have ever heard for a naval vessel.)

Since you have one or two FAs under your belt, I feel a full spot check isn't really necessary here. I could of course try my darndest if you desire one. That's all I have for now! Generalissima (talk) (it/she) 16:58, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
