- Comment from WP:GA Reviewer: After reviewing this article and subsequently promoting it to WP:GA, I can say in retrospect the above declared WP:COI was certainly very nice to know, but did not turn out to be a problem whatsoever. I am, however, glad it was brought to this stage of review, for third-party members of the Wikipedia community to evaluate. The only minor indicator type issue I saw was one pull-quote-box, which I removed from the article. Good job overall, and thanks for being so open and responsive to community feedback, — Cirt (talk) 01:39, 5 October 2015 (UTC)

Out of date
[edit]@Another Believer: - I stumbled across this GA, and it looks like it hasn't been updated in about 10 years, with nothing reflecting the last several years of events, and the statistics being to older sources. Any chance you'd be able to revisit and update this one so that it's still compliant with the GA criteria? Hog Farm Talk 00:26, 26 February 2023 (UTC)

- Thanks! I don't know how much I'll be able to do myself - I've got a major professional examination next week, and am already committed to working on another good article review and a featured article review. Hog Farm Talk 02:03, 26 February 2023 (UTC)
