Confusing? Unclear? Hard to understand?

This article has been tagged as being "confusing or unclear to readers" and "too technical for most readers to understand" since March of 2008 (I added the "insufficient context for those unfamiliar with the subject" tag myself while preparing to fix the article).

I rewrote the lead paragraph twice, and each time deleted the new intro without saving it, because it wasn't an improvement on the original. The more I look at it the more I think that it is fine as it is and the tags should simply be removed. Can anyone identify any specific problems that I can address, or is he consensus that it is acceptable in its current form? Guy Macon 02:02, 21 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It is not an encyclopedia article. It might bear stubbing up, so that someone searching for what it is can find the ATSC and the spec itself. I did some minor surgery, shifted the link to the 2010 version of the document, added an SA for ATSC, but this still has a lot of nearly meaningless unsourced essay-like content.Shajure (talk) 06:55, 22 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

A possible source [1] and another [2]. The 2nd seems to conflict with the information I removed from the lead, for example. NEither of these is enough to support a WP article, as far as I can see.Shajure (talk) 07:02, 22 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I am going to be bold and remove the technical tag, leaving in the confusing tag. IMO the problems are that the article is lacking sources and written poorly, not that it is too technical to understand. Guy Macon 21:59, 26 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
