52:, "Articles can be nominated by anyone, though it is highly preferable that they have contributed significantly and are familiar with the subject." If this was the only time the nominator had done this, I would probably not mind, however the nominator has a history of nominating articles where they are not the primary or significant contributor. For me to work collaboratively as a reviewer, I need to be secure in the knowledge that the nominator knows the ins and outs of the content under review, as well as its sources, and is confident in either their expertise on the subject or appears knowledgeable about the topic. I myself have, in the past, nominated one or two articles where I was not the primary contributor, however, I considered myself quite knowledgeable in the subject area. Because I am not comfortable as a reviewer in this situation (and because I didn't think I had to actually look at the editor's history to review an article), I am closing this review and I ask that the nominator renominate it so as to attract a different reviewer.

Nominations for articles that are unstable because of unconstructive editing should be placed on hold. 114: 947:
links in the third paragraph lead summary of the awards, and that's excessive because extensive studies have shown that multiple links disrupt the reader.
