- Thanks for the review and for fixing the nom - I keep forgetting that step! Just to clarify: with the mention of LA, it is spelled out already in that sentence. Do you want me to add (LA) to that first instance of the same sentence?
- You're welcome for the GAN tag, just assuming good faith with it, and Nascar1996 got the LA bit. -- ThinkBlue (Hit BLUE) 18:02, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
- Not sure which ref you mean that needs an access date - there's no no. 50.
- That's weird, here it says number 50. I just looked in the article and it's Ref. 22.
- Ah ok. That's a book and the link is just a courtesy link so doesn't need an accessdate.--BelovedFreak 18:45, 12 July 2010 (UTC)

- The dead link is a courtesy link to an offline source, but I've commented it out for now. I was kind of hoping it would come back online. --BelovedFreak 17:51, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
- Check.
- Thank you to both Nascar and Belovedfreak for getting the stuff I left at the talk page, because I have gone off and placed the article as GA. Congrats. ;) If you feel that this review is in error, feel free to take it to a GA review. -- ThinkBlue (Hit BLUE) 18:02, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
