[edit] Good article nomination

This article seems to have stabilized quite a bit and has had a peer review. I've given the article a decent copyedit, fixing up a couple of loose ends, and adding details to the summary section, so I think the next step is to nominate for Good article status. There's still a bit more to do for Featured status, mainly there's still some sections that need photos, but I think it meets the criteria for being a good article presently.
