Update on article progress[edit]

I have now added a section summarizing the facts, legal issues and arguments, and holdings in this case. I also added a section about the significance of the case (in particular, the influence the case had on the development of Indian gaming law, and the impact the case's outcome had on the Seminole Tribe).

I still need to edit and updating the very top summary section of the article, and I plan on adding in more links where it would be helpful. I will also do a final proofread of the entire article.
