I really don't like to quickly fail any nomination but unfortunately this is a similar case. The article is fairly big but with only 26 refs; nothing wrong with the number but large amount of facts are not sourced. Many paras are completely unsourced. In fact, many sections are entirely unsourced. The refs used need to be formatted properly. The article is tagged with one issue but it needs many tags such as refimprove, OR etc. I'm sorry to say but this article is far away from GA and thus, this has to be a quick fail. The issues cannot be addressed in 3 or 4 months so, have to fail. Good work is done on the article but not enough as each and every fact in the article should have sources which are well formatted. I'm not digging in any further and just failing it mainly due to lack of refs which are needed for verification of the material. Thank you. TheSpecialUser ^TSU 14:55, 23 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
