STRONG Oppose Lead is way to short, article isn't visually appealing, and the prose is anything but fabulous. For example, the section beginning with "There are 31 known isotopes of krypton.[9]" has 10 sentences and uses the "to be" verb 14 times. Finally, what does this article have to do with Superman ;-)

Oppose. The size of the lead reflects the coverage of the whole article, which is very minimal. Check out
Hydrogen to get an idea of what we're looking for. I don't intend to be mean, but the best way to determine if this article is "FA-class" yet is to bring it over to
peer review. This keeps the backlog here down to a minimum (incidentally it boosts the backlog over there...but I think this one is more important ;-D). JHMM1321:14, 5 April 2007 (UTC)reply
Oppose Not near the standards as-of-yet, although Balloonman
ALLCAPS response was a little on the uncivil side. No need to be blunt and offensive, editors often put a lot of work into an article and aren't aware of the shortcomings. Just list them and try to be civil.
