Since the article makes no claims about the organization's importance, why isn't the organization itself a sufficient source of information about it?

This article has turned into quite a rambling mess since I've last looked at it. There is WAY too much detail here and far too little references. I liked it better when it was closer to a stub, it was at least more concise then. Do we really need whole sections on each member of the board, and a listing of all their newsletters? Sheesh --
