Overall: @Bruxton: Good article. Honestly, the first hook is not interesting to me but alt1 is good enough for me to approve in good faith. Onegreatjoke (talk) 20:17, 20 February 2023 (UTC)
The figure should be 1,111. The source gives a table of casualties, which for the 1st Armoured Division says 90 officers and 1,021 other ranks were killed. I assume the article author misread the former number as 900. I have corrected this in the article. Sojourner in the earth (talk) 06:04, 21 February 2023 (UTC)
@Sojourner in the earth: I changed the hook, pinging @Onegreatjoke: to take a look about approving. I have no access to the source so I AGF. Bruxton (talk) 22:29, 21 February 2023 (UTC)
