Ugly?

I'm trying to tidy and clarify the Wikispooks: namespace pages. I find all the bold strewn around this page distracting and ugly, and suggests that scanning rather than careful reading is in order. Is this just me? I've added a section about emphasis in the "Style Guide", suggesting that bold should be used sparingly. Robin (talk) 17:19, 25 November 2013 (GMT)

Clarify Idea

How about shifting the full "All power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely" quote to the top? This might prove a more thought provoking starter than "The Wikispooks site rationale rests on a view of the world which might best (if simplistically) be described as "Quasi-Libertarian Establishment-Sceptic" - which seems rather unclear to me.

I'm OK with this and the bold-facing observations above. Also the 'unclear' observation - it's unclear to me too and I wrote it!!!. You're not going to offend me with any of this Robin. Your style and content-revision suggestions have invariably led to improvements in both areas, so just feel free to get stuck in. If I take particular exception to something, I'll re-edit/revert and supply a reason. I have to say I do like the Sheeple part of this page with its graphic though - very telling IMHO. --Peter P (talk) 19:00, 25 November 2013 (GMT)
Nice overhaul Robin. I too have much respect for the Quakers. I have never done anything concrete about it although I've come close on occasion. I've added a link to the Wikipedia page and tweeked the challenge a little --Peter P (talk) 12:16, 29 May 2014 (IST)
