GA from 2007. Significant unsourced material including entire unsourced sections throughout the article. I had placed comments before hand back in February stating that this would need to be fixed or i'd nominate it to be delisted and the issues still remain.

I agree: there are just too many unreferenced paragraphs. Phlsph7 (talk) 07:29, 21 July 2023 (UTC)Reply

Yeesh. Yes. It's in a pretty bad state. Getting this back to GA will be a real project. Iskandar323 (talk) 09:00, 21 July 2023 (UTC)Reply

Delist - lots of effort needed to get this to GA standard. BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 16:15, 22 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
