- Hook: Short enough, I guess it's somewhat interesting, cited
- Article: New enough, long enough, image is from Flickr and licensed correctly. Return of Oberheim, Synthesizer designer, and early years all have unreferenced information. Randomly checking a link (Joel Chadabe, "The Electronic Century Part III: Computers and Analog Synthesizers", Electronic Musician, Apr 2001) shows it to be dead.
- Summary:
Please fix referencing and use archives so the dead links can be accessed. Crisco 1492 (talk) 02:07, 6 September 2011 (UTC)
