Review section[edit]

I am nominating this featured article for review because there are several unsourced statement, an "update needed" orange banner for the "Research" section added in 2020, and the "History" section seems to stop in the 2000s. There is also an extensive "Further reading" section that should be evaluated for its inclusion as inline citations or removal from the article. Z1720 (talk) 14:58, 24 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Move to FARC little or no progress since the nomination. (t · c) buidhe 20:08, 6 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delist concerns remain and there is little progress towards improvement. Z1720 (talk) 21:06, 21 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
There was work ongoing with the article about a week ago. Hog Farm _Talk 13:07, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Work seems to have stalled again. Retaining my delist declaration. Z1720 (talk) 14:59, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Z1720 Hi, I’m willing to work on this. 48JCLTALK 21:34, 3 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@48JCL: I look forward to reviewing your improvements. Z1720 (talk) 21:40, 3 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Z1720 I’ve added some content to the history section, and I probably won’t but will try to cleanup the lead and make it summary style. 48JCLTALK 00:27, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Pinging in Ajpolino - no pressure to work on this, but I was hoping we could get a medical editor's opinion as to if this is in a condition warranting delisting. Hog Farm _Talk 14:07, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Traveling, but will take a look in the next few days. Ajpolino (talk) 14:41, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Gave my thoughts here. I think the article would need some moderately heavy lifting to meet the FA criteria. I see there are some editors interested in taking the lead on improvements; I'm happy to help a bit if they'd like, though I don't currently have the time/bandwidth to take the lead. My personal opinion is that an article like this is best de-listed. If improved, it can always come back through FAC, where I'm sure it would benefit from the attention.

@Hog Farm: Given this, what are your thoughts? Nikkimaria (talk) 15:20, 15 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Nikkimaria: - I think we should delist then. Hog Farm _Talk 16:30, 15 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
