John Vidale-Wikipedia Article
Posted by Mike Williams in Arroyo Grande on July 18, 2007 at 15:35:46:

I somehow missed your earlier post alerting us to the improvements you made to the Wikipedia article. Just wanted to say the article is improved by your efforts, and to also say thanks. Wikipedia has become so popular a site for amateur researchers that the importance of that entry should not be underestimated.

With that in mind, and with some hesitance (since I don't really know how much or which parts of the total article you're responsible for), I gotta say that the entry still looks cobbled together. It does not read smoothly, such as many other articles in Wikipedia do. There are incomplete sentences and ones that don't parse. And there is still misinformation there. It should be entirely re-written. But that may not be practical due to the "vandalism" you've previously mentioned. I don't really know how the site works re editing, but I suspect writers with good bona fides, such as yourself, are given some preference and priority.

Perhaps some intern somewhere within could be assigned the task of rewriting it, and then it could be checked for accuracy and go out under the name of a professional such as yourself.
