Article is no longer a featured article

This is my first FARC, I was thinking of putting this on the FAR, but decided against it, because I really don't think this article is of featured standard. Firstly, spotted around 2 months ago by User:Cafe Nervosa, the article claims in 2 different places that he married 2 different people in June 1990. Reading through it, other things just don't flow, the first I read of his children is when it talks about his weekly custody exchange with them and how that clashes with his overtime. At that point, I didn't even know he had kids, as they are introduced later. To me, the thing just doesn't read well, tiny paragraphs pepper the article, the "Life after Trial" section is 2 sentences. And I don't like the small font used for quotes either, I'm using firefox and text size is at normal, I can read it fine, but I need to put some extra effort in. Extra effort should not be required when reading a FA. - Hahnchen 02:40, 23 November 2005 (UTC)

  • Comment: apart from the problems cited by the nominator, there are also other issues, like some of the pictures (e.g. the courtroom sketches) being claimed as fair use without any stated rationale. — Haeleth Talk 19:26, 30 November 2005 (UTC)
