Will take this one. Regards, Krishna Chaitanya Velaga (talk • mail ) 10:54, 19 December 2017 (UTC)[ reply ]
Lead and infobox;
Please introduce "Rudolf Peierls and Otto Robert Frisch"; nationality and profession.
Y Noted that they were refugee physicists. Nationality is tricky; Peierls was German, but a naturalised British citizen; Frisch was Austrian, but not yet nationalised. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 20:31, 24 December 2017 (UTC)[ reply ]
the potential military feasibility a nuclear bomb; I cant't get the flow I think you've missed something before "a nuclear bomb"
Y Added missing "of". Hawkeye7 (discuss) 20:31, 24 December 2017 (UTC)[ reply ]
"Use of Uranium for a Bomb" and "Use of Uranium as a source of power"; "B" in bomb is to be de-capitalized, or put on initial capitals for "source of power"
While I agree that the capitalisation makes no sense, that's the way it appears in the actual titles. [1 ] [2 ] Hawkeye7 (discuss) 20:31, 24 December 2017 (UTC)[ reply ]
Why was it called MAUD Committee? What is the abbreviation of MAUD?
Y Added to the lead. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 20:31, 24 December 2017 (UTC)[ reply ]
Can infobox be added?
Which one do you have in mind? Hawkeye7 (discuss) 20:31, 24 December 2017 (UTC)[ reply ]
Section 1;
Link Rome
Y Linked. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 20:31, 24 December 2017 (UTC)[ reply ]
John A.Wheeler -> John A. Wheeler
Y Done. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 20:31, 24 December 2017 (UTC)[ reply ]
if he were was able
Y Corrected. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 20:31, 24 December 2017 (UTC)[ reply ]
Use conversion template for "5 kilogram" "one kilogram"
Normally a precious metal would be converted into troy ounces, but the Imperial/US customary unit for fissile materials is kilograms. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 20:31, 24 December 2017 (UTC)[ reply ]
Frisch and Peierls produced the Frisch–Peierls memorandum in March 1940; please brief of the contents in a line or two
"They reported that a five kilogram bomb would be the equivalent to several thousand tons of dynamite, and even a one kilogram bomb would be impressive. Because of the potential radioactive fallout, they thought that the British might find it morally unacceptable." Hawkeye7 (discuss) 20:31, 24 December 2017 (UTC)[ reply ]
More to come. Regards, Krishna Chaitanya Velaga (talk • mail ) 08:36, 24 December 2017 (UTC)[ reply ]
Section 2;
A Committee was created; Why is "C" capitalized?
Y No good reason. De-capitalised. Hawkeye7 (discuss)
It held its first meeting on 10 April 1940 -> The first meeting was held on 10 April 1940
Why use the passive ? People usually want me to remove it, not put it in. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 04:10, 31 December 2017 (UTC)[ reply ]
in the ground floor main committee room; Do you think that this detail is necessary?
Yes; it is remarked on in many accounts. Someone doing a tour can view the actual place. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 04:10, 31 December 2017 (UTC)[ reply ]
y with an i -> "y" with an "i"; to make it clear
Y Done. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 04:10, 31 December 2017 (UTC)[ reply ]
British born scientist; I think it is to be "scientists"
Y Corrected. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 04:10, 31 December 2017 (UTC)[ reply ]
Its meeting were; "meetings" or "meeting was"?
Y Corrected. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 04:10, 31 December 2017 (UTC)[ reply ]
Regards, Krishna Chaitanya Velaga (talk • mail ) 03:39, 31 December 2017 (UTC)[ reply ]
Section 3; Very-well written
Section 4;
conversion for 1,800 tons
This is part of a quote, so I don't want to do that. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 20:10, 1 January 2018 (UTC)[ reply ]
conversion for 1 kg
Again, there is no conversion for fissile materials. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 20:10, 1 January 2018 (UTC)[ reply ]
Regards, Krishna Chaitanya Velaga (talk • mail ) 04:07, 31 December 2017 (UTC)[ reply ]
Section 5;

Done = Hawkeye7 (discuss) 20:10, 1 January 2018 (UTC)[ reply ]

Done = Hawkeye7 (discuss) 20:10, 1 January 2018 (UTC)[ reply ]

Done = Hawkeye7 (discuss) 20:10, 1 January 2018 (UTC)[ reply ]
25 million dollars -? US$25 million
Again, it is part of a quote, so I don't want to change it. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 20:10, 1 January 2018 (UTC)[ reply ]
The official exchange rate was $4.03 = £1, so about £6 million. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 20:17, 1 January 2018 (UTC)[ reply ]
Britain did not have the money or the manpower -> Britain neither had the money nor the manpower; please ignore if the bit was said by Allison
Part of a quote. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 20:10, 1 January 2018 (UTC)[ reply ]
Link "James B. Conant"; James Bryant Conant
Done = Hawkeye7 (discuss) 20:10, 1 January 2018 (UTC)[ reply ]

Done = Hawkeye7 (discuss) 20:10, 1 January 2018 (UTC)[ reply ]
Lavrenty Beria's report to Stalin of March 1942; Mention "Stalin" in full, and link, as it is the first mention
Done = Hawkeye7 (discuss) 20:10, 1 January 2018 (UTC)[ reply ]
with the deliberately misleading name of Tube Alloys; to mislead who, the enemies, or for security purposes?
Y For security purposes, Added. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 20:10, 1 January 2018 (UTC)[ reply ]
"Imperial Chemical Industries"; already defined in the last para of section 2
Y Unlinked. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 20:10, 1 January 2018 (UTC)[ reply ]
58.1% confidence , violation likely. But I understand that it is mainly due to the quotation, so no issues.
