Yeah. But making intros very clear on prominent articles shouldn't be too laborious. Care, attention, talk page note, etc. Start using it as more of a tick-box point at article reviews, perhaps. Wikipedia articles tend to accumulate cruft with time - special case subclauses, trivial POVs demanding a sentence and so on. Decruft occasionally and things will be fine. - d. _______________________________________________ WikiEN-l mailing list WikiEN-l@lists.wikimedia.org To unsubscribe from this mailing list, visit: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikien-l
