# Talk:Marmon–Herrington CTLS

I can't find a better image for the CTLS-3. Could someone find another free one?--Tomandjerry211 (alt) (talk) 20:08, 28 June 2016 (UTC)

This is a US topic, so US spellings should be used - should also give the US measurements first. Done
Not done - I still see multiple cases like "12.7 mm (0.50 in)" Done
What makes dutcheastindies.web.com a reliable source? Same with marmon-herrington.webs.com. The latter is blocked by my work filter, which doesn't seem to be a good sign.
Cites 5 and 7 are unecessary. Cite 8's sources in the bibliography could be reliable. Cite 9 relies on a self-published book, so I guess it's unreliable.--Tomandjerry311 (need to talk?) 14:48, 4 August 2016 (UTC)
All of those cites removed.--Tomandjerry311 (need to talk?) 13:58, 11 August 2016 (UTC)
I believe "turretless" is correct, not "turret-less" Done
Link chassis to hull, amphibious warfare, J. Walter Christie, link Samoa on the first use Done
Remove the duplicate links to the M2 and vehicle armor in the variants section
There are no dup links there.--Tomandjerry311 (need to talk?) 15:37, 5 August 2016 (UTC)
You got the one for vehicle armor, but the M2 is already linked in the Design and development section - the article is not long enough to warrant more than one in the body. Parsecboy (talk) 18:40, 15 August 2016 (UTC) Done
Where does the figure of ~700 tanks produced come from?
The caption for the last photo states it's a CTLS-3, which does not appear to be among the variants listed. Is it a CLT-3? Or a CLTS-4 of some variety? Done
According to Estes' book, the CTLS provided the basis for the CTM, which should be mentioned somewhere. Done
Also according to Estes, the 1st and 2nd Separate Tank Companies were formed in June 1942 to man the M-H tanks, and these were later sent to Samoa - Zaloga mentions that 20 of these were the CTL-6 variant Done
Zaloga mentions a CTL-3M variant, and that the earlier CTL-3s were rebuilt to this standard in 1941 Done
Zaloga also states that the CTL series was the first tank to be built to USMC requirements - this is a notable bit of info Done
The article omits the reasons the CTL series was rejected - according to Zaloga, the tanks "proved to be a disappointment because its light weight and small size had led to too many compromises, including a fragile power train and weak armor." Done
What you've got here is a little too close to Zaloga's wording (particularly "led to too many compromises") - please reword to avoid issues with close paraphrasing. Done
Este's other book, Marines Under Armor gives more detail on the procurement history - the Google Books scan doesn't have page numbers, so you'd need to get a hard copy, but they appear to be pretty plentiful. Parsecboy (talk) 19:13, 3 August 2016 (UTC)
Ordering one, may take one or two weeks to arrive.--Tomandjerry311 (need to talk?) 15:09, 7 August 2016 (UTC)
@Parsecboy: Thanks for all of the comments you made. I have finished all that I could.--Tomandjerry311 (need to talk?) 18:34, 13 August 2016 (UTC)
@Parsecboy: All of your secondary comments have been finished.--Tomandjerry311 (need to talk?) 18:50, 25 August 2016 (UTC)
