. Nice article. Length, date and hook reference are all in order. No copy vio. Good to go.--Nvvchar. 23:20, 31 May 2013 (UTC)

Article rightly says that there were two crossings, one holding tight against the Rock and another which would be much more pleasant. Otherwise looks solid. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 14:32, 1 June 2013 (UTC)
- I think that's easily resolved. The first of the two crossings you mention seems to have hardly ever been used and then only in wartime (I found only one example mentioned). The second crossing via the causeway was the only routinely used one. I've amended the hook to reflect that. Prioryman (talk) 15:00, 1 June 2013 (UTC)
- Needs to be stated explicitly in the article. I don't doubt it, but... — Crisco 1492 (talk) 15:07, 1 June 2013 (UTC)
- Looks good now. New enough, long enough, well-referenced, no close paraphrasing found. Neutral as neutral can be. Good to go! — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:51, 1 June 2013 (UTC)
- COI? Promotional? Either reviewer can address this issue, but it must be addressed by one of them. Thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 05:54, 2 June 2013 (UTC)
- I thought "Neutral as neutral can be." would be explicit enough, but apparently not. No COI evident, no promotional material. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 08:20, 2 June 2013 (UTC)
