  In order to uphold the quality of Wikipedia:Good articles, all articles listed as Good articles are being reviewed against the GA criteria as part of the GA project quality task force. While all the hard work that has gone into this article is appreciated, unfortunately, as of June 29, 2009, this article fails to satisfy the criteria, as detailed below. For that reason, the article has been delisted from WP:GA. However, if improvements are made bringing the article up to standards, the article may be nominated at WP:GAN. If you feel this decision has been made in error, you may seek remediation at WP:GAR.

Quick fail criteria assessment

  1. The article completely lacks reliable sources – see Wikipedia:Verifiability.
    •  
    Although there are some references, large parts of the article are not confirmed by [[WP:RS}}
  2. The topic is treated in an obviously non-neutral way – see Wikipedia:Neutral point of view.
    •  
  3. There are cleanup banners that are obviously still valid, including cleanup, wikify, NPOV, unreferenced or large numbers of fact, clarifyme, or similar tags.
  4. The article is or has bee#::n the subject of ongoing or recent, unresolved edit wars.
    •  
  5. The article specifically concerns a rapidly unfolding current event with a definite endpoint.
    •  

FAIL I am going to immediately de-list this article as it will need a lot of work to bring it up to GA status. Specifically in the History, Themes and conflicts, and Actual history sections. The last is a list (of mostly trivia) which is not recommended by WP:MOS. Please bring back to WP:GAN when these concerns have been addressed. Please familiarise yourselves with the good article criteria and endeavour to meet them. Thanks. Jezhotwells (talk) 23:48, 28 June 2009 (UTC)Reply
