Translation of the METAR

May I have a translation of the METAR please. Want to get the Wikipedia article correct.

Super VC-10,

Why do you have to have a Wikipedia article quite so soon before any details have been released? That web site is nothing but a collection of poorly written, poorly research and inaccurate articles anyway. Why don't we let those who have an important job to at this very challenging time get on with their jobs? You can have your ghoulish article in the days and weeks to come if you must. Shame on you.

Incidentally, if you can't read a basic METAR or TAF then I hardly think you are qualified to be writing on the subject.
