Success evaluation
"This process was initially a success, as there were more promotions in the period between 2004 and 2007 (1388) than the period between 2008 and 2011[2] (443)." It is unclear why you are using this statistic to determine success. ErikHaugen (talk &#124; contribs) 23:33, 9 November 2011 (UTC)

 * I think it's better, since it does not make the claim as explicitly that more promotions is better. Some might find the "but" jarring anyway, though, since I think some people probably feel it is more effective now than it was in 04/05. I think there are too many apostrophes in the title, also :) ErikHaugen (talk &#124; contribs) 00:48, 10 November 2011 (UTC)

In case you missed it...

I like this essay. It's a step in the right direction.  Master&amp;  Expert ( Talk ) 12:21, 10 November 2011 (UTC)
