 * Remove the external link in the intro sentence and move it to the External links section. Format the name of the org per WP:MOS, in bold.
 * Change inline refs to use the and tags, with each text in the References section moved to the appropriate place in the main bid. Add a template to the References setcion. See WP:SITE.
 * Remove the multiple occurrences of EMSL being linked to its website. That is overlinking and discouraged per WP:MOS.
 * Use bullet lists (WP:MOS describes how) instead of spacing the lines in the lists.
 * Remove the tag and allow the TOC to appear per WP:TOC

Response to Suggestions
The article formatting was cleaned up as suggested for the most part. Although the references were put into the suggested format, this causes duplicate references to be listed. I was unable to find a way to prevent this. --Shanilea (talk) 20:34, 10 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Nice job! I did a little more cleanup and removed the cleanup tag. The article looks good. Like all articles, it can always get better. Notice that the duplicate refs have been combined using named refs. Happy editing. Truthanado (talk) 00:39, 11 October 2008 (UTC)

Grand Challenges
The article says what the purpose of “Grand Challenges” is, but it gives no clue what they are. Is a “Grand Challenge” a contest, a symposium, a research project, or what? —teb728 t c 23:01, 1 September 2009 (UTC)

Is this neutral or encyclopedic?
This reads like a promotional website. I think it needs solid reworking to give useful information about the EMSF, like specific developments it's been responsible for, instead of being something Human Resources might send out to potential new hires. Perciv (talk) 17:44, 9 April 2020 (UTC)
