[X] A very high level of overall quality

The submitted article is/does not…

[ ] Obtusely redundant
[ ] Contain copy pasta descriptions of systems or interior compartments
[ ] Unauthorized by faction managers or player-controlled corporation
[ ] Contain references to IC events that have not occurred (SM must authorize retcons)
[ ] Use second-person language (“you” or “your”) unless it is an instructional guide aimed at players.
[ ] Use bombastic language (“virtually immune,” “nearly indestructible,” “insanely powerful,” “horrible effects”)
[ ] Use an unbalanced header/text ratio (many headers but sections are one-liners)
[ ] Use major unapproved sub-articles that should be submitted separately
[ ] Lacking Detail
[ ] Images hosted on sites other than stararmy.com (Photobucket, Imageshack, etc are not allowed)

The article has…
[N/A] Speeds in compliance with the Starship Speed Standard, if applicable

Summary
Standard Product Nomenclature

**The vehicle needs a standard product code from the Standard Product Nomenclature System

Status: Pending

Notes
Other than getting it a proper product code, there are no other outstanding issues holding the article up.

A minor issue that is optional would be adding on DR and range of the weapon system(s) to the article, so players and GM's alike would not have to click the sub-articles for these details.

I intend to finish this review by: 2/15/12 or Sooner
 
Don't we make weapon articles for the very reason to leave the important bits off the main platform to avoid clutter? Anywho, nomenclature up.
 
Personally, I would not think of something simple such as,

Damage: ADR 3
Range: 15 Kilometers

as clutter. Regardless, this article is Approved and will be moved to the appropriate area by 2/15/12. Any issues should come before then.
