- 11:5711:57, 3 June 2024 diff hist −3,876 The Delicious One Removed the long and mostly unsourced list of commercials because A) Nobody, and I mean nobody, cares about the specifics of this, it's like the huge lists of all comic book appearances in every Marvel character article B) lists like that are discouraged anyway. Put a "better source needed" on the only remaining source, because it's a business press release dump albeit a dead one.

- 06:1906:19, 31 May 2024 diff hist −6,170 Gen V →Critical response: Gaming sites barely have enough competence to review videogames (or wipe), but their marketing teams have enough competence to spam wiki cross-links to their pages here and to their clickbait, pointless articles. "Den of Geek" appears comic-oriented and on more solid ground to review a comic based series... The last sentence (was) an obvious crapflood to sneak multiple "top" list articles in. Top 50 TV shows? What an difficult task that list must have been! Tag: Reverted

Deliquescensce implies hygroscopic. We don't say "Tom is the name of a person", we say "Tom is a person". Remove psychotic levels of wiki-linking from a bit of it.

De-wikilink things like "truck" and repetitions of "detonate". Attribute false sense of security to tank operator, not the tank itself.

- 11:0911:09, 17 May 2024 diff hist +1,446 Bacteriophage →Phage therapy: Move orphan paragraph to where it might have belonged. Since the paragraph was nearly unintelligible broken English anyway, extensively rewrite the paragraph portraying the 2017 phage treatment as a miracle cure; it was incredibly dicey and still required antibiotics. Probably needs attention from a med person, I've read so much heavily obfuscated assembly language that medical journals are light reads and my take was "needs extensive further study", not "new magic bullet"

- 23:5423:54, 16 May 2024 diff hist +10 Atomic force microscopy →Probe: Make more better English and remove the 5 extraneous links to "cantilever"
- 23:4923:49, 16 May 2024 diff hist +20 Atomic force microscopy →Identification of individual surface atoms: Science isn't a "trick". If it was it would be magic. Tried to phrase the sentence with "incipient" a little better, that word doesn't seem to sit well there. Fix Dr. Evil "finger quotes". Stick the cite on paragraph two as well and ditch the reference to "the team" which doesn't make any sense since no team is mentioned elsewhere. Tense nitpicking since this was a published paper
- 02:1102:11, 16 May 2024 diff hist −529 Spectacles (product) →Software: Remove terrible puff piece press release "news" articles. HERE'S HOW TO PAIR A BLUETOOTH THING. Here's how to go away. Dubious tags on snap's odd perception of human vision, which I'm sure is approved fully by Dr. Nick Riviera.

- 18:3618:36, 6 May 2024 diff hist −404 Neoprene →Other: Remove "extreme CPU overclocking" which was uncited and honestly such a stupidly niche use that it shouldn't be mentioned inline with normal uses. Remove link to a spammy and now dead fashion blog, probably self-inserted and not worth pulling from webarchive.

- 17:1617:16, 5 May 2024 diff hist −1 Plaxico Burress →Accidental shooting: Triggers are pulled, not "pressed". Pedantic but pointed out because it would be almost impossible to reach around the trigger guard and apply enough pressure to the trigger in the same direction as gravity, while accidental pulls are a matter of poor gun safety but I've seen experienced hunters do some mind-numbingly stupid stuff with the same results

- 07:1907:19, 22 April 2024 diff hist −32 Eutectic bonding →Pre-treatment: Remove my new nominee for most incoherent sentence in all of history. Correct Hz to KHz, 60Hz isn't ultrasonic, it's bass. Change pidgin 3rd century German grammar to English.

- 07:1207:12, 22 April 2024 diff hist −535 Krypton hexafluoride →History: Get rid of non-sequitor about properties of krypton difluoride which either didn't belong here or was phrased badly enough that I missed the connection.

- 04:1904:19, 21 April 2024 diff hist −748 Cyhalothrin →Agriculture: Get rid of the dual lessons on marketing and "how capitalism / business management works" which aren't specific to this insecticide (or anything a farm needs to buy, really); aside from all of that it ignored that farms are too important to be allowed to tank from a poor insecticide choice, so subsidies end up making all of it irrelevant in this very specific market. current

- 22:3122:31, 15 April 2024 diff hist +94 The Greek Psalter Incident →Criticism of the event: Lexicon meant "dictionary" at the time and hadn't expanded into its current meaning that covers grammar / lexemes / etc to separate it from a dictionary. Also the Greek dictionary is a bit odd since none existed in English until ~5 years later, but I don't know which languages Smith supposedly knew.

Rejected papers (for whatever reason, part of the rejection here was that it didn't introduce anything new) shouldn't be cited as scientific resources.
- 04:3904:39, 10 April 2024 diff hist 0 Diffusion model →Samplers: Fix two unpublished arXiv cites to the use the cite arxiv template instead of the cite journal... which is for, you know, things in peer reviewed journals.
