- 16px Template:Ping The proposed hook is 278 characters long and needs to be reduced to below the DYK limit of 200 characters. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 14:05, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
- Template:Ping done. —MBlaze Lightning T 16:27, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
- 16px This article is new enough and long enough. The hook facts are cited inline and the article is neutral. The hook would be better without the jargon "strategic assets" and some of the article is a little close to the sources as you can see here and here. Having said that, many of the phrases are the names of units and there is a quote on the objectives of the 2015 event which is permissible. The worst bit is:
- Source:"During this exercise, the Navy had deployed two Carrier Task Forces simultaneously at sea, with both Viraat and Vikramaditya operating with their integral flights in an operational scenario. This assumes significance as it makes the Indian Navy, besides the US Navy, capable of deploying more than one Carrier Task Force at sea, at present."
- Article:"During TROPEX 2015, the Indian Navy deployed two Carrier Task Forces at the same time at sea, with both INS Viraat and INS Vikramaditya operating with their integral flights in an operational scenario, thus demonstrating its capability of deploying more than one Carrier Task Force at sea.

- Template:U — I've reworded the article text. Do you still have concerns? —MBlaze Lightning T
Comment — Added ALT1 and ALT2. —MBlaze Lightning T 17:02, 27 February 2017 (UTC)
- Template:U — Could you please take a look? —MBlaze Lightning T 17:11, 27 February 2017 (UTC)
- That's much better. The only concern I have now is in relation to the hook and article claims of "largest". The source for this states "the country’s biggest inter-service ‘Tropex’ exercise along the western seaboard", so either we need to include the "western seaboard" bit in the hook and article or remove the "biggest" claim from the hook, because on the face of it, there could have been larger inter-service exercises in other sea areas.

- I've removed "biggest" from the hook and article. I've also struck the ALT1 hook. —MBlaze Lightning T 05:34, 28 February 2017 (UTC)
- 16px Thank you. Approving ALT0, ALT2 and ALT3. Good to go. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 09:30, 28 February 2017 (UTC)
