As noted on the article's talk page, this older FA promotion isn't at the modern FA sourcing standards, with uncited text and possible original research. Hog Farm _Talk 17:15, 26 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I've just fixed some issues. The most recent sources used are from 2005. We should look at more recent sources, such as:

• Move to FARC - some work on the day this went to FAR, but nothing since. I'm not convinced all of the sources listed above are high-quality RS though. Hog Farm _Talk 18:43, 5 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Move to FARC citations are still needed in various locations, and work seems to have stalled. While Hog Farm expressed doubt above, I think some of these can be explored for inclusion in the article, and more research is definitely needed. Z1720 (talk) 17:13, 8 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Move to FARC per HF and Z. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 18:30, 12 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Issues raised in the review section include sourcing and OR. Nikkimaria (talk) 05:24, 14 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Delist, issues remain. @A455bcd9: SandyGeorgia (Talk) 11:58, 24 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Delist?: I don't know the FARC process well enough to give a firm opinion but for sure the issues remain. So if that's enough to delist, then delist it is. a455bcd9 (Antoine) (talk) 15:18, 24 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Delist - unresolved sourcing and OR problems. Hog Farm _Talk 19:20, 25 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Delist concerns remain. Z1720 (talk) 15:38, 27 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Closing note: This removal candidate has been delisted, but there may be a delay in bot processing of the close. Please leave the {{featured article review}} template in place on the talk page until the bot goes through. Nikkimaria (talk) 05:46, 28 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
