References

• A e-shopping website is not a reliable source.

• It is when the material is available soley on their website; the source website even has its own page here on Wikipedia explaining its credibility. The Flash ^{talk} 20:25, 12 January 2010 (UTC)

So? Wikipedia has it's own page on Wikipedia, yet Wikipedia is not a reliable source even in Wikipedia articles. warrior4321 00:03, 13 January 2010 (UTC)

Major aspects

• Why no cultural references?

• Seriously? There aren't any, so obviously no source states it. The Flash ^{talk} 20:25, 12 January 2010 (UTC)

• Yes, I was seriously asking. Please stop asking me. I'm not doing this review for comedy. warrior4321 00:03, 13 January 2010 (UTC)

Initially, I had put this article on hold but after completing the full review, it can be seen that this article is on the path to GA but still needs some work. The first thing I would get done is a copy edit of the article, as the prose needs a lot of work as can be seen above. I'm sorry to say this article does not currently meet GA standards. warrior4321 23:34, 11 January 2010 (UTC)

• I have left a message on your talk page about how completely ridiculous it is that you failed an article based on minor grammar mistakes I could have fixed easily. The Flash ^{talk} 20:25, 12 January 2010 (UTC)
