  • Any time I think I'm ambitious I take one look at your work and my motivation is shattered. Article 5x expanded since first improvements and after 2 hours of counting every word by hand, I can declare it's long enough too. The article is neutral, has more sources than bones in the human body, and a 6.5% is the lowest score I've seen yet from Earwigs Copyvio detector. Prefer alt0. Good Job!
