I think this article should be merged with Scuba. DJ Clayworth 21:25, 15 Sep 2004 (UTC)
One of the things the article is trying show is that SCUBA is just one equipment solution to the problems of diving - there are others types such as surface supplied, saturation and technical diving as well as a range of other equipment, techniques and problems that all divers share whether they dive using SCUBA or not. Mark.
I've moved the contents of this article to diving to make the diving article more of a navigation hub to all forms for "diving". Mark.
It has reliable sources, and any important or controversial material which is likely to be challenged is cited. Any format of inline citation is acceptable: the use of <ref> tags and citation templates such as {{cite web}} is optional. Y There is uncited material, but it will probably be simply a matter of tracking down which sources apply, as there does not seem to be any controversial material.
The article reasonably covers the topic, and does not contain obvious omissions or inaccuracies.
It contains a large proportion of the material necessary for an A-Class article, although some sections may need expansion, and some less important topics may be missing. Y There is room for improvement, but no obvious major omissions. Should be adequate for B-class.
The article has a defined structure.
Content should be organized into groups of related material, including a lead section and all the sections that can reasonably be included in an article of its kind. Y Complies.
The article is reasonably well-written.
The prose contains no major grammatical errors and flows sensibly, but it does not need to be "brilliant". The Manual of Style does not need to be followed rigorously. YLooks OK to me.
The article contains supporting materials where appropriate.
Illustrations are encouraged, though not required. Diagrams, an infobox etc. should be included where they are relevant and useful to the content. Y Adequate.
