Textual criticism
I reverted your changes to Textual criticism that nearly tripled the article's size. The first issue with the edit was that a lot of the text was copied verbatum from a website, which is clearly forbidden. There is a note on every edit window that states "Content that violates any copyright will be deleted." Next, the list was long and seemed like an indiscriminate list of information, which isn't encyclopedic (see WP:NOT). The level of detail given was too much for a top tier article on textual criticism (though it may be more appropriate for an article focusing on NT textual criticism... in fact, that might be a good project for you to work on, if you are up to it, creating New Testament textual criticism).Finally, the prose was very poor, and filled with jargon and shorthand that wouldn't make sense to a lay reader. We have to keep in mind that the text should be aimed towards more universal audience, and that we should try to write full on paragraphs, with an encyclopedic tone. If you have any questions about this, or about how wikipedia in general, feel free to ask. Thanks and good luck.-Andrew c [talk] 01:55, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
