Local Coordination Committees of Syria

 * ... that according to The New York Times, the "overwhelmingly young" Local Coordination Committees of Syria (pictured) are starting to "emerge as a pivotal force" in Syria?
 * Reviewed: Communist Labour Party (Syria)
 * Comment: This is an expansion of prose by a factor of about five, not a new article. User:Hala1176 was the original creator of the article, but s/he copy/pasted (very likely in good faith) text from the LCCSyria's "about us" page on their website - presently used as a minor source, ref 3 in - so i didn't list him/her as a major author. I removed the pasted text, but i considered it valid for the definition of prose length and expansion. User:Life in General's contributions were prior to my expansion.

 * Symbol confirmed.svg The article looks good, it is well referenced, with a number of English-language sources, such as The Washington Post, Amnesty International or The Guardian. Anybody who looks for information about the LCC will find it here. If possible, the information about its membership should be updated, as it comes from June 2011. Otherwise, I do not see any problems with the article. Tymek (talk) 15:14, 19 February 2012 (UTC)
