 :{{Reply to|Kamyers}} :{{Reply to|Debbiebwolfe}} Hi everyone, I went ahead and rearranged the outline for better flow. I also left the Digital Documentation section like you recommended Debbie. I think now that the layout is good, we can go in and copy edit the article for any errors or clarity. --[[User:Amanda.Austin1|Amanda.Austin1]] ([[User talk:Amanda.Austin1|talk]]) 16:12, 27 November 2023 (EST)
+I have also been thinking about the article's organization. I think a lot of the sections can be combined so it's not so overwhelming. Below is my proposal; I have not removed anything at all, merely restructured in a way that makes more sense (to me at least). I am happy to reformat this way and preserve everyone's text, but would love some feedback before making a major change. [[User:Emmakd|Emmakd]] Emma D. 17:41, 28 November 2023 (EST)
