Armalite AR-50

Well done for removing the previous copyvio stuff, but the article still needs major work:

• What the hell does "veturbulencecoil" mean?
• The article is still heavily promotional, you really, really need to tone that down, and enough people have warned you about that.
• One of your references is in an odd format and thus displays inoorrectly.
• 3rd-party, reliable sources are required: at present, the only sources present are either directly from Armalite, or are press-release style things.
• I'm not sure the videos in the See Also belong there. Certainly not with the current wording. At the very most, they should be in External Links, but probably shouldn't be there at all.
• There are too many pictures for the article at present: either put them into a gallery format, or prune them. They also need captions. In addition, one needs to go in the infobox.

I suggest you take pointers from other weapons articles and use them to improve the article. Lukeno94 (talk) 11:36, 8 February 2013 (UTC)
