Checking against GA criteria

GA review (see here for criteria)

1. It is reasonably well written.

   a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):

   according various publications. various is a weasel word here, also missing preposition. Done

   Statement reworded and "various" removed. Patriarca12 (talk) 17:58, 12 March 2011 (UTC)

2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.

   a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):

   There are a large number of cites to http://www.al.com/blogs/ Blogs are not a [[WP:RS|reliable source. Done

   Two dead links refs #166 & #199 Done

   Otherwise references check, assume good faith for off-line sources.

   All of the http://www.al.com/blogs/ have been removed as each one that was used was a secondary source citation. The two dead links have alos been fixed. Patriarca12 (talk) 17:58, 12 March 2011 (UTC)

   a (major aspects): b (focused):

   Thorough coverage of the subject

   Fair representation without bias:

5. It is stable.

   No edit wars, etc.:

6. It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.

   a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
