I am going to quick fail this good article nomination as it is clear that the nominator has not attempted to address any of the good article criteria. Article does not conform to the basic structures outlined in the key elemnets of the manual of style
 * 1) Prose style is poor, reads like an essay or personal reflection, little context is provided for those unfamiliar with the subject. The lead fails to meet the criteria of WP:LEAD
 * 2) References appear to be to reliable page sources, but page numbers are not provided meaning that the references cannot be checked. Some statements are unsupported.
 * 3) Not really possible to judge the broadness of this article without sufficient context.
 * 4) Appears to be neutral, but the sources may be cherry picked to support one point of view.  Not sure if the coverage is broad enough.
 * 5) Article created 3 days ago, hardly qualifies as stable.
 * 6) No images or sound samples used.

Please read the criteria. It is pointless nominating an ill-prepared essay such as this for good article status. Jezhotwells (talk) 09:53, 11 May 2012 (UTC)
