Over the past month or so, User:IcebergSings and I have rewritten this article that was not in good shape, and we'd like input on improving it! We're interested in trying to get it to GA. Our goal is to represent this topic in an informative and research-based way, with clear structure and storytelling. This is important because English Wikipedia articles on tattoo history and practices are of very uneven quality, even though this is a popular topic among readers. We have more sources we may work through for adding additional historical details, but I believe it's ready for comments, including on structure and general approach. Thanks!

As a low effort but not unimportant comment, all the photos in the article are currently of men, and white men at that. Female and non-white military sailors also get tattoos. Nick-D (talk) 00:20, 2 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
