I accepted it for now but some issues that should be addressed are:

Date formats need to be fixed per WP:DATEFORMAT. We do not use all numerical forms for dates, and regardless they should be consistent throughout the article.
Many of the references are from blogs, and some are from sources that are too closely associated with the subject. These should be replaced with better ones, that per the origional author's comments, there apparently are. For the line that has eight references, can we fix this? This usually draws up a red flag for WP:MASKING. If the information is suitable for inclusion in an encyclopedia, there should be other references that can provide the same verification in one or two, rather than one for each week.
There are some NPOV issues. Using phrases such as "never wavered" and "already had released" and "had the honor" are not suitable for inclusion.
I fixed a couple formatting issues, I may have missed some, however whatever is left is mostly minor anyhow. I took care of the major issues between my last time on this submission and this time.

That is everything I see at this point. The article still needs work, but it is coming along. -Aaron Booth (talk) 16:59, 4 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
