Crash test dummy

Request for references on the talk page is well over a year old, yet no inline citations in the whole article and only a few references. The article appears well written and comprehensive, but this alone does not an FA make. PDXblazers 05:28, 15 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

There was a request for references and now there are lots of them. External links can qualify as references, they're just not formatted correctly in this case, but that's easy to fix. So you haven't made any detailed request on the talk page for improvement, which is required for listing here. - Taxman ^Talk 14:58, 15 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

To reinforce Taxman's point, the requirement at the top of this page to post a warning of an impending nomination is critical to the effectiveness of the FARC process. Please withdraw the nomination and follow the protocol. The warning should be polite and should point out, lucidly and plainly, what needs to be done to avoid nomination.

Keep featured - no attempts on the talk page. Still an excellent article, if a little under-referenced. --Cel es tianpower ^háblame 10:12, 17 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
The article was featured nearly two years ago. I think it might be asking a little too much to ask the original author to put in inline references, especially if Denni no longer has the original books and/or Web sites available. If he can provide them, that's great, but it might be an archaeological expedition at this point. Unless there are any really glaring errors with the lack of references, I'd suggest keeping this featured. --E lkman - ^(talk) 21:00, 17 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep (was before Comment) began adding inline citations in the form of WP:FOOTNOTEs. (note that original sources are not necessary, as WP:CITE also indicates that verification is also okay) AndyZ _t 21:35, 18 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Added seven footnotes, which I hope is sufficient, and made other fixes per WP:MOS. Now support keep. AndyZ _t 21:50, 18 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Withdraw Nomination new inline citations satisfy FAC requirement. PDXblazers 01:00, 19 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
