Reviewer: Chesnaught555 (talk · contribs) Hello, my name is Chesnaught555, and I'll be reviewing this article. Best of luck. --Ches (talk) (contribs) 18:32, 13 April 2016 (UTC)

• Within the infobox, should the "c." (circa) have a dotted line under it, so that when you scroll over it, it says "circa"? I've seen the Sturmabteilung article, which does so. I'm not sure if the dotted line has any particular name, I'm just sure it's covered in MOS somewhere. --Ches (talk) (contribs) 18:37, 13 April 2016 (UTC)
  • It looks like it's done with a template; fixed. — Diannaa (talk) 20:17, 13 April 2016 (UTC)
    • Diannaa - I noticed that in the Post-war activity and aftermath section, the phrase "took his own life" is used within the first paragraph. Would "committed suicide" be better per WP:WEASEL? I see no other issues with the article; I'm aware that it is a former FA, so once this has been done, I would be more than happy to pass this GA. --Ches (talk) (contribs) 16:06, 14 April 2016 (UTC)
      • Done. Thanks so much Ches for taking on this important review. — Diannaa (talk) 19:02, 14 April 2016 (UTC)
        • You're welcome, Diannaa! I have a keen interest in German history (in particular the rise and consolidation of the Nazi Party), so I'm thoroughly enjoying this one. --Ches (talk) (contribs) 19:15, 14 April 2016 (UTC)
