This article needs some expansion before it is ready for GA status. The report of the event is quite short and doesn't give much information. In addition, the article gives no indication why this event took place (there is a bit, which is placed in the "Reactions" section for no apparent reason...can it be expanded and made into a "Background" section?). The article then leaves off at June 2007 with the government's intention to hunt down those responsible. Did anything ever come of this? Much of the information given in the lead section (which should be a summary of the article) is not given later in the article.
Some minor issues:
I will place this nomination on hold to allow for these concerns to be addressed and/or discussed. Any questions or comments can be left here, as I have placed this page on my watchlist. Best wishes, GaryColemanFan ( talk) 18:47, 21 October 2008 (UTC)
Now the harder part. The Backgr. idea is good. -- TheFEARgod ( Ч) 14:34, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
It has been over a week, and the major concerns have not been addressed. I am going to fail this nomination, but I encourage you to use these suggestions for future improvements to the article and bring it back to WP:GAN when they have been addressed. Best wishes, GaryColemanFan ( talk) 14:50, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
