Rewrite 2013-10-28

[edit]

Dear co-authors, no offence was meant by my rewrite to those who put valiant efforts into the article before. I have attempted to take it away from "legalese", ie., juridical language, as I had the impression, neither my previous colleagues here nor myself are really in a position to pull it off as a kind of proper juridical text. I hope, that I am not perceived as being disrespectful or unkind.

The kind of colleagues, who wants to have tons of inline references and enjoys classifying any article under 100KB as "stub" - just go away, and do some serious work! Regards and saludos, Oalexander-En (talk) 03:49, 28 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

As noted top right, this material was lifted from the Spanish article. OK so I do have a legal diploma, and experience as a technical author, but I think you are probably right to simplify for the general reader - thanks - but in-line citations do help more sophisticated readers dig deeper into the subject, rather than simply add 'authority' (which I presume is the job of the reference section). Do you know the saying" The wise only insult their friends"? So, amigo - saludos y regards Timpo (talk) 14:50, 28 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
