This article should NOT get GA. Its not that the stuff put here isn't correct, or well written. Its more that the subject itself is so early in development that its not a stable science at the moment. For example, I just heard about the first ISO for nanotube analyticals coming out in rough draft form. No one really knows that much about defined metrics surrounding the material, at best their metrics are simplistic (raman) or unidentified/proprietary. That's a baby as far as I am concerned.
What this leads to is a mixture of audience of professionals interested in the science, and hobbyists interested in the science. And there is nothing wrong with that, nanotubes very well may change the face of materials science in the next decade. But it means that it exists in a void where there is a lot of pop-science style information (aka sexy, but not really important, like Paris Hilton), and not a lot of the really important information, some of which is being protected at the moment by the people that have discovered it, or simply not known.
In response to some specifics that you labeled, as these can for the most part be adressed.
