  • Lead and infobox;
    • My first comment on lead is cut it down. It gives too much detail. Remove the points that are not worthy of summary. Per WP:LEADLENGTH, an article of this size (less than 15000 characters), lead must be no longer that 2 paras.

@Krishna Chaitanya Velaga: Done. Iazyges Consermonor Opus meum 05:41, 15 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Iazyges: Everything looks fine. But please cut the down the lead a bit. It is not about the paras, but about the size in general. No reader will be interested to read too much in the lead. Regards, Krishna Chaitanya Velaga (talk • mail) 06:21, 15 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Krishna Chaitanya Velaga: I've cut it down significantly. -- Iazyges Consermonor Opus meum 07:19, 15 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Iazyges: Hey, looks great. Everything is quite OK. But see there is some referencing error. It is being displayed at the end of the page. Regards, Krishna Chaitanya Velaga (talk • mail) 07:49, 15 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Krishna Chaitanya Velaga: Fixed; I had forgot to tell the footnote where to go. -- Iazyges Consermonor Opus meum 07:53, 15 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
