Organization History[edit]
What I noticed right off the bat with this article is that there were a few substantial edits with 2,000+ words removed or added. There were also some back and forth of reverting edits. I also noticed that the original article didn't have a lead at all, but went right into history. I think whoever made the article just wanted to get it out there for other people to work on. The second edit added a lot of content, but mostly sounded like somebody just typing furiously everything that they could think of instead of thinking about usability or organization. I didn't find the edits that made the organization what it is now, but it's basically an entirely different article today than when it was first created. Today's version takes some of the main headers and some of the main ideas from the original, but pretty much every word has been altered.
When I compared a couple of the edits I noticed the biggest point of contention was adding or removing lists at the end of the article. Some editors seem to want this article to be a directory for different designs, mechanics, and manufacturers. While others are trying to keep it basic.

Organization History[edit]
When I went to the oldest version of this article it was very brief and mostly had links to other pages. The person who created this page didn't seem to have any real reason to which supports my goal to merge this page with Intrapersonal communication . After the original article, subsequent edits really only focused on minor edits or adding information a tiny bit at a time.
As far as bold edits, I noticed some removing of sections such as In Non-Humans and In Popular Culture. I also noticed a lot of reverted edits, and I'm pretty sure someone at one point just pasted the entirety of the Intrapersonal communication article into this one, but it was rightly undone.
