The article gives too much weight towards suggesting these methods are reliable. See my comments at Talk:Fingerprint#Studies on the use of fingerprints not mentioned in the article. I also had to add issues with their validity in forensic science to the lead of that article as there was nothing in the lead suggesting any issues.
