Compared to the before version and the after version, it looks much better. I haven't actually read it but on scanning it it sure is a heck of a lot better. Thanks for sorting this article out.-- Literature geek |  T@1k?  21:21, 21 March 2009 (UTC)

Thank you
Just wanted to post a thank you to all who have been watching the fluoroquinolone articles develop and for the time they have spent repairing spelling and grammar errors and the like. Much appreciated. We are working on all of the fluoroquinolone articles to bring them up to date and are following a similar format for all of them. Any suggestions would be appreciated and invite those who are helping to post such suggestions on the various quinolone talk pages for consideration. Again, thanks for your efforts here folks.Davidtfull (talk) 20:02, 11 April 2009 (UTC)

trade names
It had been stated that: ''there is a long-standing saying in Wikipedia (it may even be codified somewhere) that "redirects are cheap".  Therefore it had been suggested that: redirects for trade names are a more appropriate solution than in-article "laundry" lists, because 1) they avoid clutter in the article body, 2) they prevent issues such as an ever-growing list that may be "expanded" with inaccurate information and 3) they make it much easier for someone looking for a particular generic formulation of the drug to get to the actual article.'' Since this suggestion is both practical and logical I have removed the list of trade names and used redirects instead.  As such someone searching Wikipedia using a brand name would simply be taken directly to the levaquin article.

I would now ask that editors not expand the trade name list, but create redirects instead. Those not familiar with this process may find the following article helpful:
