We are pretty much near the end of this review, just take care of the following minor points:

  • Add something, a line or two, from the legacy section to the lead
    • Sure
  • Date format: 2018-06-05 in "References" v. July 28, 2005 in footnotes section. There are a few other instances as well
    • Should be good now
  • How are you ordering "References"? Suggesting to keep it alphabetical.
    • Alphabetized
