I have reviewed this article, and do not believe it meets the criteria. I also believe the edits necessary to achieve GA status are too numerous to warrant putting the nomination on hold.
Is it reasonably well written?
A. Prose quality:
There are numerous grammatical errors, and slang is used occasionally in the article.
There are references to some sources, but I am not sure if there are enough. Also, there is a reference to a Wikipedia article, which does not count as a 3rd-party source.
B. Citation of reliable sources where necessary:
There are some citations in the article, but there are also unsourced statements in the article which should be cited. I will add {{fact}} templates to indicate which statements I believe should be cited.
A. Images are copyright tagged, and non-free images have fair use rationales:
B. Images are provided where possible and appropriate, with suitable captions:
These criteria are null because there are no images in the article.
Overall:
Pass or Fail:
Due to the above mentioned problems, I am failing this article for GA status. If these issues are resolved, please feel free to nominate the article again. Robert Skyhawk (Talk) 17:24, 24 August 2008 (UTC)Reply
