Initial comments

I've had a quick read of the article, and it looks to be at or about GA-level, but I've not yet checked any references. I'm now working my way through the article in more depth, starting at History working to the end and then going back to the WP:Lead. I hope to have this completed today.

WP:Lead -

This provides a reasonable introduction to the topic and a reasonable summary of the main points. It would not hurt to add a bit more detail to the summary, but I'm not going to put the review On Hold whilst this is done. Pyrotec (talk) 12:45, 12 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
