- 06:4406:44, 16 May 2024 diff hist +2,972 Mind uploading →Philosophical issues: Rephrase much of this section to be more concise and less editorial; add a more general summary of the philosophical landscape and history; add some additional sources and links for the history paragraph.

- 12:4012:40, 28 April 2024 diff hist +137 Mathematical beauty →In method: Rephrase a bit, remove the weasel word tags, add a citation. In discussing academic literature, generalizations are fine if they are supported by reliable sources and examples. Contradictory sources can be provided separately. In summary, we should not use such precise language in the introduction as to make it difficult to understand the basic concept. Instead, details should come later. And examples are already provided here. Also, added source for use of the word "elegant". Tag: Visual edit

- 08:4708:47, 25 April 2024 diff hist −1 m Modernization theory →Modernization and democracy: remove a stray quotation mark. Tag: Visual edit
- 08:3008:30, 25 April 2024 diff hist +8 Succession of the Roman Empire Add unity to the lede. Much of the body refers repeatedly to unions and unification (Slavic, Holy Roman Empire, etc.), and the empire's breadth and stability are important parts of the Roman Empire proper. Tag: Visual edit
- 07:4807:48, 25 April 2024 diff hist −2 Christianization →Places and practices: The article does not claim Christianity got the concept of a 7-day week from the Romans. The 7-day sabbatical week was first practiced by Jews (the first Christians), see Week. Rephrase this sentence, which is also an exaggeration of the article. Christianity as a whole does not prescribe names of weekdays, while the Latin church used Latin names because Latin was the language its leaders spoke. Conversely, some English weekdays derive from Germanic gods. current Tag: Visual edit
- 04:3304:33, 25 April 2024 diff hist +1,289 Bustle →Origin: Add more citations, more details about precursors to the bustle, rephrase the section, and add some links for further reading. Tag: Visual edit

- 01:5001:50, 21 April 2024 diff hist −315 Light pollution →Remediation: Paragraph is about what light pollution is, not how to remedy it. Not sure it's really relevant to the article, but I moved it to definition and added an inline tag to indicate that it lacks references. Tag: Visual edit
- 01:3201:32, 21 April 2024 diff hist −11 Transhumanism →Specter of coercive eugenicism: The phrase "specter of" makes it sound ephemeral and fantastical. That's either biasing the reader toward perceiving this as an irrational concern, or seen as representing the article's value judgment. Anyway, it's inconsistent with the other headings, which don't prefix their subjects in this way with phrases like "fear of," "conerns about," or "possibility of." Tag: Visual edit

18 April 2024
- 23:5523:55, 18 April 2024 diff hist −72 Big Crunch Lede - Avoid words like "new" or "recent" which are ambiguous and confusing in an online encyclopedia. ("New" as of when? Compared to what?) Additionally, it's misleading to say there are multiple new theories being actively debated by scholars. This is in reference to a single preprint that has only been cited 3 times according to Google Scholar. Tag: Visual edit

- 08:2408:24, 18 April 2024 diff hist +12 m Rogue black hole A rogue black hole can't be in a galaxy, as they are intergalactic by definition. The article says they're on the edge of the MW so let's go with that. current Tag: Visual edit

- 07:1907:19, 15 April 2024 diff hist +67 Scarification →Dangers: Include keloids as a complication, as it was mentioned in source 22. Remove claims that cited 22 but which were not made in 22. current Tag: Visual edit
- 07:1707:17, 15 April 2024 diff hist +4 m Keloid These citations are already in the body, so including them in the lede is unnecessary. But, lest someone reverts my edit, I've included them redundantly in the lede as well. Tag: Visual edit
