Review commentary

 * Messages left at WP Cetaceans, WP So Cal, WP MilHist and Johantheghost. Sandy Georgia  (Talk) 23:44, 18 December 2007 (UTC)‎  Message left for Spangineer.  Sandy Georgia  (Talk) 23:48, 18 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Nominating because it is grossly undercited, there's a POV tag, and there's all sorts of criticism of factual accuracy on the talk page. I notified Johantheghost (the main contributor), and WP cetaceans, socal, and milhist. Mangostar (talk) 00:41, 7 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Please follow the nomination instructions at the top of WP:FAR and notify involved editors and relevant WikiProjects with U.S. Navy Marine Mammal Program, and post a note back to here confirming notifications. Thank you, Sandy Georgia  (Talk) 02:43, 7 December 2007 (UTC)
 * I did this when I nominated, see above. Mangostar (talk) 23:36, 18 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Delist. Throughly undercited, POV concerns; the tag at history says it all - needs dead-tree references. Buckshot06 (talk) 05:25, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Please see the WP:FAR instructions; Keep or Delist are not declaring during review. Sandy Georgia  (Talk) 04:03, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
 * OK, maybe I should have said, send straight to WP:FARC. Is that clearer? Buckshot06 (talk) 03:36, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Do take some time to read the instructions at the top of WP:FAR. Thanks, Sandy Georgia  (Talk) 06:28, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

Alright. I believe this article is undercited and needs more in-line references in order for it to stay an FA. Buckshot06 (talk) 06:05, 19 December 2007 (UTC)

FARC commentary

 * Suggested FA criteria concerns are citations and factual accuracy (1c), and POV (1d). Marskell (talk) 04:01, 2 January 2008 (UTC)


 * Remove as per my above comments - does not meet criteria 1c at the moment Buckshot06 (talk) 22:37, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Remove neutrality and citation tags need clearing. DrKiernan (talk) 14:41, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
