Formatting changes
[edit]I have explained my formatting changes in edit summaries, but repeating them here:
- A Biography section is unnecessary - the whole article is a biography.
- The standard place for an image of the subject is right at the top of the article.
- Standard formatting for the TOC is left and unlimited.

No standard format . . .
[edit]For the information of all, there is no "standard format" for WP articles. If one can avoid big hunks of white space in laying out a page, one should do so: An aversion to wasted space is "standard" layout for any kind of medium, electronic or printed — you can look it up in any good book on design. This editor, your good friend, feels slighted by reversions to his layout based on nothing more than somebody else's personal taste. One editor's opinion in WP has exactly the same weight as any other editor's opinion. Thank you for your contributions to WP in all other matters. Sincerely, your pal, GeorgeLouis (talk) 22:14, 11 January 2012 (UTC)
- Er, so what is WP:MOSBIO all about then - suggest you read it. – ukexpat (talk) 22:15, 11 January 2012 (UTC)
Ah, a really quick response! I see we, you and I, have nothing better to do with our time today. Anyway, I looked your suggestion over and could find no information about layout or tables of contents. I did so very rapidly, so I might have missed it, so direct me to the proper paragraph if you can. Well, I will be offline for a while, as Real Life calls. Anyway, thank you for at least looking at the article. It was fun to research and fun to write. Sincerely, GeorgeLouis (talk) 22:23, 11 January 2012 (UTC)
