Initial comments

• I've now read through the article fairly quickly. My first thoughts are: on the positive side it is a comprehensive and apparently well referenced article. On the "down side", it does not read all that well: the grammar needs improving in order to improve the readability (horrible word). I would make similar comments about the section and subsection titles - they appear to be accurate translations, but they are not very good English titles. I also suspect that the article is suffering from some WP:Overlinking, but I've not looked in detail.

• I will now start to review the article section by section, but leaving the WP:Lead until last. At this point I will be concentrating on "problems", which I suspect will be mostly grammar. This could take a week or so for a long article such as this. I may fix some simple problems myself, in which case they may not be mentioned in this review. Pyrotec (talk) 20:14, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

Most of the problems that I found were due to broken web links, formating of citations and "confusion" between citations and Notes. I've fixed most of them, so I won't bother to list them on this review template. Pyrotec (talk) 19:04, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
