Three year old FA. Article has had unsourced statements for eighteen months, and I have issues about the quality of sources; I just removed one sourced to a conspiracy theory website. Sceptre (talk) 00:28, 1 March 2010 (UTC)

 * Delist no effort being put forth to address anything. Sources have many dead links, at least one missing page number. — Ed   (talk  •  majestic titan)  02:33, 16 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Delist per above, no one's even trying. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Many otters • One bat • One hammer) 20:33, 18 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Delist, mainly due to sourcing. Not only are there a few unsourced areas and a bunch of deadlinks, but I have concerns about the article meeting the requirement for high quality sources. Several book sources are provided in the Further reading section, but much of the article is instead sourced to contemporary popular press articles. Other concerns include See also and External links sections that need major trims, a lack of alt text, and a merge tag that needs to be dealt with. Dana boomer (talk) 01:23, 19 March 2010 (UTC)
