I feel the article has a large amount of good information, but could use some cleaning up. Some aditions may need to be added also. Also needs the table template. This definitley is not a start page, nor an A Class. This is why I feel a B-Class suite's this page. User:Shy1520 August 4, 2006

  • Note: This user is referring to an older version of the article, which was a copyvio on the user's part. That information was removed 2 days after the above message. The page as it stands now is defnitely not B-class yet. The fact that it's somewhat short, and not divided into sections, are not my real concern; rather, the article cites references in-line, in a standard academic style, with the author's last name and date of publication. But no references section exists, and readers have no way of knowing what reference a citation is supposed to be referring to. That's a serious problem, enough to make me confident in classifying this as a stub rather than a start artice. --Miskwito 02:46, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Major copyright violations

Sadly, most of that excellent content was cut & pasted from other articles on the web:

Since all of the user's substantial edits that I've looked at so far are also copy vio, and lacking anything to indicate original authorship or licensability, We've got to do a total reversion. Ouch, it was a good-looking article... I'll note the user page and I'll try to get the user to read WP:C --studerby 18:50, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
