MFTWrecks and I (we are in a course at Carnegie Mellon University together that has an assignment to improve a WP article) are planning to expand this article by adding more information about the competition and also the strategies used by successful teams, including the MIT team, the GTRI team, and the iSchools team. One source we are planning to use is at http://cacm.acm.org/magazines/2011/4/106587-reflecting-on-the-darpa-red-balloon-challenge/fulltext . A sandbox for our updated version of this article can be found at User:Miestersean/DARPA Network Challenge Sandbox. Any feedback would be much appreciated. Sean ( talk) 17:26, 18 February 2012 (UTC)
Should we remove the "known competing teams" section? This seems less informative than the list at http://redballoon.wikispaces.com/Groups Jodi.a.schneider ( talk) 13:26, 5 December 2009 (UTC)
"References"
Use of the Tang et al paper is good. I'm surprised you didn't use the following as reference. [Pickard, G., Pan, W., Rahwan, I., Cebrian, M., Crane, R., Madan, A., & Pentland, A. (2011). Time-Critical Social Mobilization. Science, 334(6055), 509-512. ] Having gone through peer review, they are more authoritative than some of news reports or MIT websites you did cite.

"The 2009 DARPA Network Challenge "
This abstract can be beefed up. It doens't provide a concise overview of the article that follows. It should describe what the actually challenge was, not just the goals, and perhaps something about the winner or the results. See the description of a WP lead about what is needed: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style_%28lead_section%29.

" submissions were legitimate or fake"
Need to say something about the problems the winners needed to solve -- not just to find the balloons, but also to weed out false reports posted by competitors or vandals. Then the discussion about ways to deal with assess legitimacy makes more sense.

I will review. I will make notes as I go. Please indicate what has been fixed below the comments. I prefer comments and maybe the {{ done}} template, rather than striking text out, as that makes the review more difficult to read at a later date. Bob1960evens ( talk) 10:18, 18 May 2012 (UTC)
