The article has not been reassessed since 2006 and there've been a lotta changes since then. Two big problems: the intro doesn't summarize the article, and some editors keep reinserting repetitive, non-neutral text. Felsic (talk) 15:16, 30 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. To say the least, it needs to be updated. But it also needs to be refactored for simpler language in some parts and more exact language in other parts. As I read through the article more and more, I would say it'd be better to revoke GA status for now, in part due to out-of-date information and also in part due to non-neutral language (regardless of whether or not it's agreeable, the phrasing needs to sound more "simple fact"-ish.) This appears to be present throughout the article. Jacedc (talk) 16:41, 20 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
