Lunes of Hippocrates

 * Nominator(s): Johnlemartirao (talk)

I am nominating this for featured article because it is for the benefit of students. Lunes and quadratures of it is not known mainly to everyone.Johnlemartirao (talk) 12:21, 11 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Recommend withdrawal: There are elements of an FA here, but there are some fundamental problems. The article needs a reorganization, there's a section with the same title as the article, a heading with no section underneath it, inappropriate tone throughout, a list with no context, etc. Sarcasticidealist (talk) 13:19, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

I already made the necessary changes for the article.--Johnlemartirao (talk) 13:50, 11 February 2009 (UTC)
 * With the greatest of respect: you haven't even come close. Don't feel bad, though - you've really done a very good job given that the article is only two days old.  I'd suggest you track down somebody with a record of doing good work on mathematics-related articles and ask for their help in bringing this one to the next level.
