RISC[edit]

Article is no longer a featured article.

Was promoted in 2003, well before we really had any featured article standards. It's long and somewhat detailed, but I don't think it's awfully well written. It also has no references - at all - and no picture. In addition, there's a few factual concerns raised on the talk page, which don't appear to have been dealt with. It hasn't really had much attention in months - and needs it. It might be nice to send this to peer review - it's not so bad that it couldn't be a FA again with a bit of effort.

    • Remove, refer to Peer Review. Neutralitytalk 03:51, Jan 2, 2005 (UTC)
    • Keep. It's not exactly typical Wikipedia style, but the anon praise on the talk page is right: it's quite lucid and addresses many relevent points. I'd recommend adding more sectioning, condensing it, and adding more illustrative images and examples, but I think it's quite worthy as it stands. Deco 07:35, 3 Jan 2005 (UTC)
    • Remove and do as suggested. A thorough going-over, with references this time, could probably restore the article's featurability. --Michael Snow 00:25, 7 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Remove - no references, not worthy of FA status. --Neoconned 15:44, 8 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Remove. Not terribly well written, no references. Not so far from a FA that it couldn't gain it again with some work. So I don't think it should be a big deal to remove it and wait till it meets those important criteria before it gets back in. - Taxman 04:24, Jan 9, 2005 (UTC)
