Looks like a Featured Article. So must be one. I nominate this article for FA status. I think the WP:LEAD looks okay, otherwise you will spoil the suspense. --Jones2 16:05, 20 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Object. As much as I'd like to see this article reach featured status, I don't believe it is there yet. None of the references are properly formatted; most, if not all, are simply links thrown at the end of sentences. With this exception, I believe the article meets criteria 1, 2, and 4. Criteria 3 calls for images, of which this article has only one. I believe images are very important to a featured article. With these issues in mind, I believe we have a good article on its way to featured status. If these items are taken care of, I would be willing to support FA in the future.

  • Object – Before looking at anything else, there are no inline citations so this article is bound to fail FAC. WP:LEAD is too short (and shouldn't be suspending, but the opposite, the lead should summarize the entire article – this is an encyclopedia, not a fictional novel). Suggest peer review first.

  • Object - The lead should definetely be expanded, as I had no clear sense of who the person is by reading the paragraph. The first priority right now is probably to adjust all the citations to the proper format as noted above. AQu01rius (User • Talk) 03:37, 21 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
