Review commentary
edit- Notifications to Ziphon, Davidruben, Knowledge Seeker and WP MED
According to Wikipedia:Featured articles/Cleanup listing, Asthma is among our most problematic FAs. Promoted in 2005, it is largely uncited, has been tagged as needing citations for more than a year, has an undeveloped History section, has numerous short, stubby sections, and has an underdeveloped WP:LEAD.

- Yep this article has some big problems. Hopefully we can get enough people interested to get this article back into shape. It was peer reviewed in July. Wikipedia:Peer_review/Asthma/archive2#BirgitteSB. Most of the recommendations are still applicable. Ziphon (ALLears) 04:22, 7 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- This is not currently meeting my definitions for FA. For instance, long inline quotes from researchers are completely out of place (section about long-acting beta-2 agonists). The history section is woefully inadequate (nothing to say apart from some random quote from a minor paper) and ignores about 2000 years of asthma research.
