I am nominating this for featured article because the article has quite a history, even being a featured article on the main page. This is the third time the article was nominated as a canadidate and was demoted in 2007, but it's three years later and the article obviously has been much more improved since then so lets give the former symbol of luck a third visit.

Comment - There are some "citation needed" templates in the text and many short paragraphs. The Wiki ghost (talk) 17:58, 13 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Strong Oppose - There are many citation needed templates, paragraphs missing references entirely, too many images, lists etc etc. This is far from FA and I doubt the nominator has read the FA criteria. Consider getting it peer reviewed before taking it here. Nominating it for good article is probably also a good idea. Esuzu (talk • contribs) 18:08, 13 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Strong oppose, request withdrawal, patently unready. Drive-by nom from an uninvolved editor. Apart from the problems listed above there are unformatted sources, dead links, uncited works in the bibliography etc. Needs much work, then peer review, then perhaps here again.
