[edit] Paul Morphy

Article is no longer a featured article

In short, no external links, no definitive references. It pains me to nominate this as someone has put a ton of work into it, but this page has a ton of problems with it for an FA (for which, coincidentally, I cannot find the original nomination page). To start, it has minimal references, none of which go back to multiple statements, claims, grandiose language, and quotes scattered throughout the article. This might not be a problem if, from the gate, the article wasn't making claims which call out for definitive sourcing. I can list them all if necessary. --Jeffrey O.

  • Remove. it is disturbing that no record of the original FAC can be found. The lack of references combined with this makes me seriously question the article.--Alabamaboy 16:05, 26 August 2005 (UTC)
  • Remove. Similar problems as Karpov article. Monicasdude 16:11, 26 August 2005 (UTC)
