I'll get to this shortly--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 12:54, 2 October 2025 (UTC)

@Sturmvogel 66: Hey, this review page was opened 3 weeks ago, but I'm still waiting on a review. I understand you're reviewing a lot of articles right now, and that this one is quite long, I'd just like an update if you can give one. --Grnrchst (talk) 15:20, 23 October 2025 (UTC)

In the caption to the photo in the infobox, entrenched is the wrong term. Perhaps "defending" or something similar?
Earwig reports 9.9% copyvio unlikely
Decapitalize Restored
opposition from either side both sides
After prime minister Manuel Portela Valladares Capitalize prime minister
I should have been clearer. Generally capitalize jobs/titles/ranks only if the precede a name. Examples are at MOS:JOB and follow that guidance--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 19:34, 26 October 2025 (UTC)
Got it, de-capitalised other cases. Thanks for pointing me to the relevant MOS guidelines. --Grnrchst (talk) 20:13, 26 October 2025 (UTC)
Down to military preparations, more later--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 19:31, 25 October 2025 (UTC)
Addressed all. --Grnrchst (talk) 09:08, 26 October 2025 (UTC)
Comma after the title Captain General of Catalonia Francisco
Done. --Grnrchst (talk) 09:28, 27 October 2025 (UTC)
Link mortars, which are not cannons
Done. --Grnrchst (talk) 09:28, 27 October 2025 (UTC)
Link military terms and ranks on first use, like artillery, battery, regiment, brigade, colonel, etc.
Done. --Grnrchst (talk) 09:28, 27 October 2025 (UTC)
Convert metric measurements like 105 mm to English units on the first use
What do you mean by "English units"? --Grnrchst (talk) 09:18, 27 October 2025 (UTC)
Feet, inches, etc.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 09:20, 27 October 2025 (UTC)
Done. --Grnrchst (talk) 09:28, 27 October 2025 (UTC)
Still need to convert 105 mm My mistake.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 10:23, 27 October 2025 (UTC)
I already did! --Grnrchst (talk) 10:13, 27 October 2025 (UTC)
I'm seeing a lot of red links in the military preparation section that don't have Spanish- or Catalan-language links. Are they really notable?
Removed. --Grnrchst (talk) 09:28, 27 October 2025 (UTC)
Can you be any more specific about the types of aircraft?
I've already specified wherever possible. The only case it wasn't clear was what planes Sandino used to drop pamphlets over the barracks; the cited source doesn't specify what they were. --Grnrchst (talk) 09:33, 27 October 2025 (UTC)
Fair enough--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 09:39, 27 October 2025 (UTC)
large paper balls Shouldn't this be rolls of paper?
Corrected. --Grnrchst (talk) 09:28, 27 October 2025 (UTC)
machine gun-mounted car This doesn't make sense
Changed to say technical. --Grnrchst (talk) 09:30, 27 October 2025 (UTC)
Spot checks to follow--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 19:34, 26 October 2025 (UTC)
Spot checked cites 1-3, 18–20, 37, 62, 78, 104, 118, 138, 161, 179
FYI, you needn't cite every single sentence. Consecutive cites to the same source with different page numbers can all be consolidated into a single cite, provided that they're all in the same paragraph. An example would be cites 1-8.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 10:10, 27 October 2025 (UTC)

Overall:  Upgraded to GA on the 27th and QPQ is met. I can find no major issues with the article. All of the hooks are fine except for the last one which is not particularly interesting. Good job on this article @Grnrchst: Jon698 (talk) 14:59, 30 October 2025 (UTC)
