Oppose
 * 1) From the, uh...Trap of Ackbar, I guess.
 * 2) *Not fully sourced.
 * 3) *I'm not exactly well educated on the subject, but I would think it could be expanded at least a bit more, if not significantly.
 * 4) *Some wonky sentences. Example: the first three in the main body.
 * 5) *Tense changes in some places.
 * 6) *Complete lack of detail.
 * 7) *Sectioning not the bestest.
 * 8) *Notable users is not the bestest either, and should go anyway.
 * 9) *Surely some better images could be produced.
 * 10) *More info on the various types of detonators.
 * 11) *Em dashes aren't meant to be surrounded by spaces.
 * 12) *No references from what is probably the prime source of information.
 * 13) *No references from what is probably the nest bestest source of information.
 * 14) *Could use some info on who (not individuals, but armies et cetra) used them.
 * 15) *Basically, it hasn't really a hope at GA, and none of the issues from the last nomination have been sorted. However I look forward to seeing how you deal with the objections.
 * 16) *And yes, I know bestest isn't a word.

 * 18) From the Forest of Goodwood
 * 19) *Infobox needs to be sourced.
 * 20) *Whole article needs to be sourced.
 * 21) *Please remove the "Notable Users" section - unneeded and smacks of "Trivia".
 * 22) *Introduction needs to be longer and broader in scope.
 * 23) *Technical Information" needs to be rewritten to conform to higher-quality prose.
 * 24) *Prose issues the whole article over.
 * 25) *Tense issues; all articles need to be written in the past tense per MOS.

NOTE: THE FOLLOWING MESSAGE IS NOT B-S
 * Honestly, I can't contribute nearly as much at this time. Is there any way I could pull the nom, and work on it? I've got school, baseball, etc. and it's about to drive me postal. I am trying hard to get on as often as I can, but right now, I've got a list of crap to do bigger than the Death Star. I hope to be able to get back to my usual amount of editing (so what if it's not very much) very soon. I apologize for failing on my part, and hope to be forgiven.

 * I don't think you need to be apologizing. Cut back your hours and take a pay cut. :) Work on this when you can and renominate it a few months when it's ready. Take care. -Fnlayson 23:06, 15 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Just remove this, keep the suggestions in mind, and work on it later. And don't feel bad about it.  Chack Jadson  (Talk) 00:12, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Can this be removed, or are you still trying to get in GA'd?  Chack Jadson  (Talk) 22:21, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
