  • Article move date from AfC OK, size OK, hook citation OK, image copyright OK, referencing largely OK, a well-written and interesting article. Only a couple of concerns: the link in ref #3 appears to be broken, and there should be some refs in the last paragraph of the "History" section per criterion D2.

  • I've asked the author to add a couple of inline citations to the History paragraph. As for source 3, it opens okay for me. It opens a PDF style page, so maybe it depends on the reader's PDF settings? PDF's are not an uncommon online source these days. Sionk (talk) 12:07, 15 July 2012 (UTC)
  • References have been added. PDF also opens for me. Thincat (talk) 20:52, 15 July 2012 (UTC)
  • Hmmm, for some reason my browser still doesn't get it since it lacks the "pdf" extension. However I can download the file and read it, so OK. Check on the referencing, and good to go! Well one! Constantine 21:40, 15 July 2012 (UTC)
  • I have added a .pdf extension. That doesn't break anything for me and may help others,[1] Thincat (talk) 07:01, 16 July 2012 (UTC)
