List of edits needed

Need to address the following points (1 = good, 0.5 = fair, 0.0 = poor)

First sentence brief and definitional? 0.9

Too many parenthetical phrases for a first sentence

Concise summary and overview of entire article? 0.9

Not clear that the QIF model belongs in introduction.

Clear description of each of the key topics listed in the outline? 0.7

Says the theta model "blows up" near the bifurcation when the state variables actually remain bounded. Probably confused by the period blowing up. Some minor errors, e.g. in general a function does not have a closed form for its integral, much less for the PRC of the theta model.

Appropriate depth of detail? 0.9

Some key details missing, e.g. QIF model definition lacks description of reset.

Links to other Wikipedia articles for key words mentioned in entry? 0.9

Good, but could have more.

From 3 to 10 external links (External Links)? 0.5

Mostly links to other wikipedia articles, remaining 2 to scholarpedia --BBAmp (talk) 01:16, 13 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
