I am not sure why CardinalDan labeled my edits as "vandalism" so I undid his changes.--Dickinsonre (talk) 19:44, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

Editing Needed
Thanks for your contributions. There is some good "raw material" in this article. However, some of it reads like a software documentation manual and is not appropriate for Wikipedia's general audience. The following are excerpts from the Wikipedia documentation:
 * Wikipedia is not a manual, guidebook, or textbook (from "What Wikipedia is not")
 * Wikipedia is an encyclopedic reference, not an instruction manual, guidebook, or textbook. Wikipedia articles should not read like:
 * 1. Instruction manuals. While Wikipedia has descriptions of people, places and things, a Wikipedia article should not read like a how-to style manual of instructions, advice (legal, medical or otherwise) or suggestions, or contain how-tos...
 * 5. Scientific journals and research papers. A Wikipedia article should not be presented on the assumption that the reader is well versed in the topic's field. Introductory language in the lead and initial sections of the article should be written in plain terms and concepts that can be understood by any literate reader of Wikipedia without any knowledge in the given field before advancing to more detailed explanations of the topic. While wikilinks should be provided for advanced terms and concepts in that field, articles should be written on the assumption that the reader will not follow these links, instead attempting to infer their meaning from the text.


 * Provide an accessible overview (from "Lead section")
 * The lead section should briefly summarize the most important points covered in an article in such a way that it can stand on its own as a concise version of the article. It is even more important here than for the rest of the article that the text be accessible. Consideration should be given to creating interest in reading the whole article. (See news style and summary style.) Accordingly, editors should avoid lengthy paragraphs and over-specific descriptions, especially if they are not central to the article as a whole.


 * In general, specialized terminology should be avoided in an introduction. Where uncommon terms are essential to describing the subject, they should be placed in context, briefly defined, and linked. The subject should be placed in a context with which many readers could be expected to be familiar. For example, rather than giving the latitude and longitude of a town, it is better to state that it is the suburb of some city, or perhaps that it provides services for the farm country of xyz county. Readers should not be dropped into the middle of the subject from the first word; they should be eased into it.

Additionally, the article needs references from neutral sources (e.g., technical journals) and the external links to commercial websites are inappropriate. See External links. Moreau1 (talk) 03:02, 14 May 2009 (UTC)

This might be moved to wiki source and then the overview put here - 2601:1C0:6D02:3CB0:B887:30BD:C94A:DF0B (talk) 19:50, 15 June 2021 (UTC)


 * Okay, the article was intended for Grad students but it can be simplified and broken apart if that will help for the general audience. Dickinsonre (talk) 12:03, 25 November 2022 (UTC)
