This article, especially the Vortex2 section, reads like a press release rather than an encyclopedia article. There are likewise some instances of weasel words and other words to avoid throughout. Madcoverboy (talk) 13:55, 13 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I absolutely agree with Madcoverboy. Sure, it's a very worthwhile venture, but Vortex2 not [currently] encyclopedic, nor is the current article front page material. 173.30.15.228 (talk) 16:32, 13 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your comments as well as your improvements to the article, such collaborations when things are noticed surely do help. At the moment there are a lot of press releases out about VORTEX2, and not too many scientific journal type articles, as it is a current event, and ongoing, I imagine it will change. The automatic peer reviewer didn't pick up the weasel words, so will have to look that up unless you want to do it yourself as that would improve the article a lot. Thank you.
