Huge chunks of text in the previous version of the article were clunky and dated, I attempted to cut down on the wordiness of the article and the clunkiness of the sentence structure. It seems to have been copied wholesale from an old encyclopaedia article. Content checking on this article would be greatly appreciated. Also, further revisions to the word choice and grammar should be done.

Yes, is has been copied wholesale, since the material was fully referenced (follow the notes' links) and Smith's DGRBM is still famous for its solidity. And yes, i have verified it. As for the rewording, my English isn't particulary great, so I left the the old English text.

I edited the article to make the language a little less "1867-ish".
