This review was failed as per guidance via Wikipedia:Good article criteria and Wikipedia:Reviewing good articles, the article wasn't broad in its coverage, and was concentrating more on the founder (to which there is also an article for) rather than the main article on the organisation.

Please read the entire text in the pink box - the box itself is a template which according to the guidelines is to be used. In the box it states "This article provides insufficient context for those unfamiliar with the subject matter. Please see tips on how to better format your article". That information in itself is sufficient to state why it has been failed. While I was reviewing the article, and after I had read it all, I knew more about Henry Gerber, than the society itself - there is not much context explaining the organization. As the article is about an organization, then it should be concentrating mainly on that, and the founder second. How much more information do you require me to supply, the above says it all.

From an initial couple of read-throughs, the article appears to be well-referenced and probably at or about GA-level. So I will not be quick-failing this candidate.
I will now carry out further detailed checking of the article against WP:WIAGA. This will be undertaken section by section, but leaving the WP:Lead until last, to try and ascertain whether it is GA-material. Pyrotec ( talk) 19:18, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
At this point I'm just going to concentrate on "problems", the good points, etc, will be picked up at the end of the review.
.... to be continued. Pyrotec ( talk) 20:13, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria
A well-referenced article on a short-lived society.
Congratulations on the quality of the article. I'm awarding GA-status. Pyrotec ( talk) 18:32, 26 September 2009 (UTC)
