Doesn't seem to be finished. We have the background, and then... pow. Nothing. What about the history of the project? Crisco 1492 (talk) 08:36, 5 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Comments/discussion:

Hook interest is lacking, and I am worried that this article does not appear to be finished. Crisco 1492 (talk) 08:36, 5 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Crisco. I agree with your review, since the goal posts for DYKs have changed since I wrote the article. I think it is barely notable, and I can't find sources to expand it, so I've withdrawn it by deleting it from the nominations page. --Epipelagic (talk) 10:43, 5 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
