Review commentary

 * Notified WikiProject Michael Jackson, WikiProject R&B and Soul Music, WikiProject Biography, WikiProject Indiana, original nominator User:FuriousFreddy retired

Well, this article was promoted to feature article status back in August 2005. I suppose wikipedia had different standards at the time for FA's. But looking at it now. It's clear to me that it is no longer a FA. While it is well-written. There are hardly any references. In fact, there are only 10 inline citations for 42kb of prose. cowbellcity45  talk  01:51, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

Would the nominator please make sure that relevant parties are notified as per FAR nomination instructions? Thanks. --RelHistBuff 05:52, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

 * The WikiProjects are listed on the talk page, and the notification instructions are at the top of WP:FAR. Sandy Georgia  (Talk) 15:24, 5 October 2007 (UTC)


 * The notifications still haven't been done, and I'm sure that will create a problem for Freddy. Sandy Georgia (Talk) 14:46, 6 October 2007 (UTC)
