Clarification question[edit]

I probably should have posted my concern on the talk page initially, but I was confused by the quote: "clear and detailed discussion and organization of the defenders' tactics and motives includes the potential for sowing discord among defenders". Particularly, I was confused about the phrase "discussion and organization of the defenders' tactics". It seems to say organizing the defenders tactics includes sowing discord, which doesn't make sense. How does one organize discord? I thought it was a typo or misquote. —Torchiest talkedits 04:59, 2 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This is a copy/paste straight from the PDF to make sure I have it right - "The clear and detailed discussion and organization of the defenders'’ tactics and motives includes the potential for sowing discord among defenders." The "discussion [...] of the defenders'’ tactics and motives" seems pretty clear and straightforward. So changing the word to "organization" makes it less clear, and requires some interpretation. Does he mean, how the tactics are organized, or how the defenders are organized, or how well the information is presented... I am not sure, but I think the latter is probably right since it fits in better with "discussion of", but YMMV. 24.12.74.21 (talk) 08:30, 2 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Ah, that finally just clicked for me. It's a really convoluted sentence. I think I may try rewriting/paraphrasing it to make it more comprehensible. —Torchiest talkedits 21:03, 3 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
