- There are two problems with the article. Main one is that the hook makes claim (UNESCO site) that are not even mentioned in the article. The lesser problem is poor formatting of the external links; they just have the name - no info on the publisher, or date. I recommend that the creator reformats them with a nice gadget like WP:REFLINKS. Please ping me when this is ready for a re-review. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk to me 02:47, 2 October 2011 (UTC)
- Alright, I'll get on fixing that. I'll be rather busy during the beginning of this week, so it won't happen now or in the next two days, but I should be able to improve the article by the weekend. ~~ Lothar von Richthofen (talk) 21:09, 3 October 2011 (UTC)
- I have added a background section; I hope this is adequate to address your concerns. I was graciously helped by User:Harrias with the references. The article should be in better shape now. ~~ Lothar von Richthofen (talk) 15:37, 8 October 2011 (UTC)
- All checks out now. I've added one cite request, but this is should not hold the DYK from being displayed. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk to me 15:40, 9 October 2011 (UTC)
- From my reading of the rules, if there is a citation needed template then it is not ready. Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:15, 9 October 2011 (UTC)
- Ach, some people are never satisfied. Fine, I'll hunt down a source for your benefit. ~~ Lothar von Richthofen (talk) 03:29, 11 October 2011 (UTC)
- There ya go. ~~ Lothar von Richthofen (talk) 03:38, 11 October 2011 (UTC)
