[edit] copyedit tag
As it stands the quality of this article is low. The references section is huge but no elements of text are linked to them. And the contributor of references has added virtually nothing to the text itself which seems contradictory if they had som much material to hand. description of the actual bombing is absent. Day or night attack? Medium or heavy bombers which units what targets? GraemeLeggett 12:54, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
- I agree and no changes made to fix it in the last month :-( --Philip Baird Shearer 13:11, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
- It seems that it was not bombed by the RAF (google: "Your search - Zara site:www.raf.mod.uk - did not match any documents"), or if it was then they were not straticic raids. The USAAF Twelfth Air Force that is mentioned in the article was a tactical airforce. The USAAF startigic airforce in that theater was the Fifteenth Air Force --Philip Baird Shearer 13:18, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

- I translated the bulk of this article from the Croatian Wikipedia. It was not referenced there. An Italian user then added all these references to support the "Italianness" of the city of Zadar. I would remove them, but I'd rather not draw myself into any more conflicts over Croatian vs. Italian sources. Also, the original translation did not have reference to which particular part of the air force participated, only mentioning them as American B-52s. Someone added these specifics later. --Thewanderer 21:36, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

- Had to have a quick check - fortunately it was the B-25 Mitchell (a light/medium bomber or tactical bomber) mentioned. GraemeLeggett 08:42, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] bibliography
way over size at the moment, needs a trim. I think 50% gone by the end of the day should be about right. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by GraemeLeggett (talk • contribs) 11:27, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
