I am going to Review this article for possible GA status. Shearonink (talk) 15:43, 2 February 2017 (UTC)
GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria
- Is it well written?
- A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct:
- B. It complies with the manual of style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation:
- The lead section has too many references - the lead is supposed to be a summary or an overview of the main text so it shouldn't have to have its statements referenced (since the sources are supposed to appear within the other sections of the article. Please adjust. Shearonink (talk) 18:01, 4 February 2017 (UTC)
- A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct:
- Is it verifiable with no original research?
- A. It contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline:

All in-line citations are from reliable sources, including those for direct quotations, statistics, published opinion, counter-intuitive or controversial statements that are challenged or likely to be challenged, and contentious material relating to living persons—science-based articles should follow the scientific citation guidelines:
- Reference #34 is faulty - too many redirects. Shearonink (talk) 23:59, 2 February 2017 (UTC)
- References #25-#36 are basically bare URLs as references and, as such, will be more prone to linkrot. They need additional information, such as website, publisher, date accessed, etc. Shearonink (talk) 18:01, 4 February 2017 (UTC)
- Half of the first paragraph in the "Terms" section appears to be unreferenced. Shearonink (talk) 18:01, 4 February 2017 (UTC)
