I'm not a wikipedia editor but this paper seems worth citing.

Looking at the wiki page I'm actually tempted to edit the 'Mechanism' section myself. Apart from neglecting the literature it makes a claim that probably warrants citation, dances on the edge of non-neutral tone and has poor grammar.

But looking at the talk page I just don't want to get involved. There is too much opinion flowing there and so sounds like 'throwing myself into the deep end' in terms of wikipedia contributions. I would want to know exactly which conventions to follow so that nobody had any credible excuse to reverse the edit.
