There definitely is a lot of information on this page. I can see you took it from basically nothing to a very informative article. The only thing I would like see changed is there are a lot of facts stated and I love the paragraph format that you used at the start of the page but as the article progressed it turned into more of a fact stating page. Now nothing is wrong with stating the facts but it does make it a little less interesting to read.
That brings me to the formatting of the page. There is so much here that I can see how it was difficult to put it all in context. Perhaps some tables would be of help? Like I said, bring it back to the paragraph format and I believe this would greatly improve the readability of the page. Other than that all the information seems solid. Everything looks nicely cited. Perhaps you could push down just a little bit the Contents box so it shows flush to the left side of the article. As it is now, it is towards the middle of the page which makes it look a bit odd. Could you do something about the multiple “edit” parts? There are so many it’s almost distracting.
I love the pictures you used here. They are beautiful and well placed. I would have loved to see a few more just for the esthetics. I’d say about 3 more pictures would be perfect. The article is long and the pictures really catch the eye and relate to the information being presented. Overall, you did a great job. The content is very informative. Fix the formatting issues and this will be a very worthy page. SsjGGV ( talk)
SsjGGV I've made the changes that you suggested to the hart of the article. I didn't add the extra pictures but I did move them around in the article for a better distribution of the photos. Smorris80 ( talk) 03:23, 25 April 2012 (UTC)

Hi! I'll be reviewing this article for GA status and should have my full review up shortly. Dana boomer ( talk) 20:33, 24 April 2012 (UTC)
Unfortunately, I am failing this article's nomination for GA status, as it is nowhere near ready.
I would suggest that the nominator(s) look at current GAs such as Hawaii House Bill 444, Defective Premises Act 1972 or others listed at Wikipedia:Good articles/Social sciences and society#Law to better understand the compactness of the bill description and the discussion, in third-party sources, of reactions to and scholarly works on the Act. I realize that a good bit of effort has gone into this article over the past few weeks, and it is currently more informative than it was as a few-sentence stub. However, it still needs significant work to be of GA quality. I feel that the work needed is significant enough to be best completed outside of the pressures of GA, but invite the nominator(s) to bring the article back when they feel they have addressed the above issues and the article complies with the good article criteria. I will be watching this page, so please feel free to ask any questions you may have here. Dana boomer ( talk) 21:02, 24 April 2012 (UTC)
Hi Dana,
Thanks for the review and pointers, I'll see if I can't get to them soon. This week I'm a bit flooded with exams and finals are around the corner, but I have until the 30th of April to make some changes before the professor grades the article for the final grade in the class.
