Quickfail - Per discussion on talk page, and per the invitation of article contributors, I am quickfailing this article for the following reasons:

• A basic copyedit has not been performed.
• Significant portions of the article appear to have been copied directly from sources, as they use the language of the sources ("we learn" etc).
• Portions of the article appear to be an inter-wiki copyvio, as they contain unlinked footnotes. (eg, text reading [2] or [49] that is not produced by way of a ref tag but rather is plain text.)
• Most importantly, the article fails the NPOV criteria, due to not presenting notable contradictory viewpoints and through frequent use of emotive and biased language.

In my view for the above reasons the article may not even be B-class, and certainly requires substantial work to reach GA extending beyond the regular improvements expected over the course of a review. I encourage editors to continue working on the article and re-nominate at a later time. - DustFormsWords (talk) 22:53, 28 February 2011 (UTC)
