The drafted changes show significant improvement to this article. The addition of providing a background on Malta would be extremely helpful. Many people do not know where Malta is or what it is near. Adding detailed information of the culture and what daily life looked like would help the reader better understand the severity of this plague epidemic. The geography of Malta would also be beneficial. This would help people understand where Malta is located in correlation to big countries.

I also really liked the idea of providing social structure and dominant religion that the user is going to add. Once again, this helps recognize the culture of Malta, and could possibly lead to more information as to why Malta experienced a plague outbreak. It also provides a sense of knowing what these people went through. People truly lived through this, they are not just an article to learn about.

Adding maps and charts would also be beneficial. Visual aids are always helpful and can help the reader follow along easier. I also agree to remove the transmission and symptoms sections. They provided very little information, and most people who are looking as article such as this already know what the plague was and what it looked like.

Adding Cassar and Pisani sources would also make sense. There is no harm in adding more sources, especially if the sources provide a great amount of information and are relevant to the article at hand.

All in all, I think you are on a great track. The information in your sandbox shows thorough thought on how to make this article better. One thing I would suggest is to possibly add more information in the origin section. just as to completely clarify how this all started and what it lead to.
