Pass/Fail:


A good article, really comprehensive and detailed. However there is a major issue with citations. Checklinks shows there are a lot that are either not working (11, 13, 22, 26, 30, 35, 43) or outright dead (3, 5, 12, all of 16, 40, 41, 42, 51). But if you can get those cleaned up the article should be good to go. Kaiser matias (talk) 22:58, 3 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, thanks for taking the time to review the article. The dead links in fact are okay, but for some reason Checklinks show them as being dead. Statto have a nasty habit of going offline, so I've archived those references. Thanks, Mattythewhite (talk) 01:08, 4 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Seems you are correct that they say dead but a quick look at a couple random ones shows they indeed work, so I'm going to ignore what Checklinks says, and give it a pass. Kaiser matias (talk) 02:24, 4 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
