Interesting subject matter. If there are no objections, I'll put together a review for this one. Midnightblueowl (talk) 16:23, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Generally, great work. There are a few prose issues that I shall bring up, but on the whole I think that this should pass with some alterations.

  • I'm a little concerned that this article relies heavily upon direct quotation, which is generally cautioned against. I would recommend taking about a third of these quotations and simply paraphrasing them in your own words. Midnightblueowl (talk) 16:36, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • The use of sourcing is fairly good, although there are no academic sources cited, and the links need to be standardised (for instance, why are some web pages archived, others not; some contain a retrieval date, others not; the style of dates differs etc).

I think that this meets with the GA criteria, so will pass it as such. However, I would recommend sending it to Peer Review as I think that the prose could be straightened out a little. Midnightblueowl (talk) 16:41, 19 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
