Talk:Michael Laucke

Update on Michael Laucke GA review ~ April 9
Hi Everyone,


 * Most of the excellent suggestions by reviewer MPJ-DK have been attended to, and then some. All 'citation needed' suggestions by Sainsf are completed (very interesting I must say)
 * I moved several critique quotes and such to footnotes in order to keep better focus, improve flow, be less disruptive and tone down text that may be construed as promotional.
 * Readable prose size is now 18 kB (formerly 21 Kb); 3000 mb have been either removed or shifted into references and/or notes.
 * Many other improvements of the day, various and sundry, can be seen (and enjoyed! ) here (contributions)

Using footnotes allows the text body to flow better and to be less disruptive. It's also less promotional-looking and more in keeping with the intended goal of simply imparting information. I think these improvements benefit the article as well as the reader. Still, if one wishes, one can quickly find information, at times slightly divergent albeit interesting, right on the same page, as a footnote instead of in the body. I think the article also reads in a less disruptive manner and is more focused, since the text (often critiques) do not appear inline (within the paragraph).

I would be amiss to not send my warmest thanks for everyone's wonderfully generous contributions until now, and for the inevitable contributions to come

...à suivre (to be continued), kind regards, Natalie.Desautels (talk)
