That's a lot of post character count for a "cleanup". Osteophage is there a reason that much text was deleted? Or rather, when you delete that much text can you put something more descriptive in the wiki edit than "cleaned up"?
#
[capjamesg]
Osteophage it looks like you removed quite a bit from the page.

When there is a quote we definitely want to preserve it, since someone in the community has deliberately chosen to call out something from a source.

Yes 100% that. When there's quote from an article it was provided to make it much easier to see why that article was being cited to make that point.
#

Osteophage if you have been removing quotes from citations please stop and go back and restore all of those.
