The list of issues:

1) The article does cite its sources properly. It has only four inline citations that does not support all factual statements. Some fields in the template at the right are not filled.

2) The image [1] has a dispute regarding a copyright, i.e. its fair use rational is questionable. However I think the same arguments can be applied to other two images. Ruslik 08:51, 20 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
