If there are no objections, I'll take this review. I'll note at the outset I've had no role in editing or creating this article. I welcome other editors at any stage to contribute to this review. I will spend a day familiarising myself with the article and then provide an assessment. While you wait, why not spare a thought for the other nominees, and conduct a review or two yourself? This provides excellent insight into the reviewing process, is enjoyable and interesting. A list can be found here Kind regards, LT910001 (talk) 02:56, 16 April 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for waiting. In conducting this review, I will:
 * Provide an assessment using WP:GARC
 * If this article does not meet the criteria, explain what areas need improvement.
 * Provide possible solutions that may (or may not) be used to fix these.

Commentary
Sorry for taking so long. This article is a little hard to understand, and I'd value if you could expand the 'context' part of the first section of the article. I'd also be grateful if you could standardise the way citations are displayed, expand the URL citations, and mark any that are Polish as Polish. Once these are done I'll leave some more comments and more fully evaluate the review, but I don't anticipate anything that would prevent promotion.

Review
This is a well-written and well-researched article that will almost definitely be promoted to GA. Some minor comments:
 * I have yet to verify the sources, which I will do and update tomorrow.
 * Verified what I can (do not have access to the books). The first source does not have a page number
 * In the absence of a link to Walter M. Cummins, I'd be grateful if you could prefix his name by his profession (eg "Author Walter M. cummins...")
 * As a GA this article should have a consistent style of citations. They are currently in a variety of styles, eg some books have day/month/year and other have year dates, dates recorded in different formats, some dates are duplicated, publishers are abbreviated and not, etc. One way to make them consistent would just be to replace them all with the automatically-generated wikipedia citations using the "Cite" tool. If you don't know about this, you can input the ISBN and a book's citation will be automatically generated. I know this is a frustrating requirement but if you think of this process as adding the finishing touches to a masterpiece, that may help.

I have no other comments. Once the source have been verified and citations standardised, I'll promote the article. Kind regards, --LT910001 (talk) 05:00, 2 May 2014 (UTC)
 * I'll try to fix those soon. I cannot add a page number as I don't have physical access to the book as well and Google Books for some reason does not list a page number in snippet view (the quote can be verified here: ). --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 03:19, 4 May 2014 (UTC)
 * I think I fixed the above. Please let me know which specific refs still nead cleanup. Websites sometimes provide specific day of publications; some however don't even give a year. For books all were standardized to the common year only format. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 05:53, 4 May 2014 (UTC)

Great, thanks for your changes. This article is well-written and meets the GA criteria, so I'm promoting it and have made the necessary changes. Well done!
