Reviewer: QatarStarsLeague (talk · contribs) 01:19, 25 June 2013 (UTC) This is a short article, but, in short, I have seen shorter articles pass. QatarStarsLeague (talk) 01:19, 25 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Lead

Clear pass.

Composition and mission

[edit]

Fine here.

Blær Bjarkardóttir controversy

[edit]

This section passes. However, correct me if I am wrong, an entity, vested with such authority, must have provide impetus for other decisions that garnered controversy. Why have you focused on this case in particular, instead on creating a section entitled "Controversies", and make this section a subsection. That is if there have been other controversies. If not, than I will pass the article. QatarStarsLeague (talk) 03:23, 27 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, I haven't managed to find any sources describing any other controversy that went as far as Blær's (where the Mannanafnanefnd's rejection of a name was overturned by a court). I believe some other proposed names that have been accepted (e.g., Elvis) or rejected (e.g., Satan) have resulted in publicity, though. — Richwales (no relation to Jimbo)

If there were no other controversies, than I will pass the article. Congratulations! QatarStarsLeague (talk) 15:24, 27 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
