Thanks for pointing me to the comment in the html source and
Parser.php. Is there any chance of increasing maximum page size just
a little to make the article render completely?
P.S. not sure why it'd be WP:OR the data is from a peer-reviewed
article (see the reference).

This page is still not rendering correctly on Wikipedia. I ran some
experiments and have ruled out a syntax error in the article source.
It is either a bug in mediawiki or a resource limit on article
rendering.
It isn't article size because on Special:Longpages it is in position
158.
The page source isn't massive -- but with all those templates, the
parsed version of the page would be huge (700k or so). I'm guessing
you're right, that you're hitting some kind of limit.
Check the "view source" for that Wikipedia page, and you'll see this
comment near the end...
<!--
Pre-expand include size: 292580 bytes
Post-expand include size: 119256 bytes
Template argument size: 20186 bytes
Maximum: 2048000 bytes
-->
Parser.php adds this if the template expansion goes over a certain size.
So it may be a limit in the parser.
I have to say, I think your basic problem is that the page is just too
darned big and complex. From a Wikipedia point of view, it looks a lot
like original research, which doesn't belong in Wikipedia, but in some
other site which [[Prolog]] can refer to. (See
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:OR
From a technical point of view, yes, MediaWiki should be able to handle
this... check out Parser.php, see if there's a limit that can be
tweaked. (I couldn't see one on a quick scan.)
