Comments:

NPD
The material is assumed to be weak ferromagnet, but the symmetry of the reported magnetic structure is incompatible with weak ferromagnetism.
Only 3 magnetic diffraction peaks were used for the fit.
Apparently not all possible spin arrangements of higher symmetry were explored.
The relative signs of the x and y spin components remained undetermined and an arbitrary choice was done.

Comments (symmetry):

1k magnetic structure
two irreps active.
