This looks like a very interesting, complete, and well-referenced article that I shall be very happy to rescue from its eight-and-a-half-month wait for a review. ^_^ Double sharp (talk) 03:19, 8 January 2018 (UTC)
- (I will probably have more time to do the review tomorrow, or failing that over the weekend, but for now I have done a preliminary read-through and have found it very engaging. If it is a tad technical for the average reader, that probably cannot be helped without losing information, and there is already some information that they can sink their teeth into first.)

- Double sharp, I do have a tendency to prefer technically-precise language, but I also recognise that WP has an audience with a broad range of backgrounds, and I am happy to redraft / modify sections to try to improve accessibility. Please just point out where you think it is desirable. EdChem (talk) 23:10, 12 January 2018 (UTC)
Double sharp: FYI, the expansion of this article was a collaborative effort from me and DMacks, and I think the GA credit (assuming it passes, of course) probably belongs to both of us. EdChem (talk) 23:14, 12 January 2018 (UTC)

I feel quite confident in awarding a richly deserved green plus for this extremely enjoyable read. Thank you, EdChem and DMacks! (I think the original message only went to you because you were the nominator; I'll be sure to inform DMacks as well.) Double sharp (talk) 15:03, 14 January 2018 (UTC)
