The Cure

 * Nominator(s): Lachlan Foley (talk) 08:11, 4 July 2013 (UTC)

I am nominating this for featured article because I believe it satisfies the featured article criteria. Lachlan Foley (talk) 08:11, 4 July 2013 (UTC)

Delegate's comment - I cannot see much hope for this candidate's promotion when there are so many sections and statements that are not supported by inline citations to reliable sources. Graham Colm (talk) 21:15, 5 July 2013 (UTC)

Oppose and suggest withdrawal - In addition to a general lack of citations (as pointed out by Graham), some of the citations used are missing information (for example, offline sources should include page numbers) or are misformatted (for example, FN55). There are also problems with adherence to WP:MOS (for example, long quotes should be blockquoted) and media policy (for example, File:TheCureLovesong.ogg is likely more than 10% of a non-free media).
