Reviewing and revising this article

This article was created in January 2007 by a Citizen who has not been active since October 2007 (3 years ago). Since then, very little substantive work has been done on the article. The primary source for this article was Acid Rain as it existed in 2007, an online article which has been revised a number of times since then.

As of a few days ago, this article was almost completely a word-for-word copy of its primary source, and I started to review it and add references, wiki links, expand and/or delete parts as warranted for two reasons: (1) to make the article less of a word-for-word copy of an exiting online article and (2) to expand or revise the article as warranted. To that end, I have already made numerous small changes, added a completely new section, and added a graphic. I plan to continue my review and edits as time permits.

I have finished my edits to modify the article by formatting changes, some wording revisions/deletions/additions, addition of 3 graphics, creating a references section and creating some new references. I believe it is now a status 1 article and will change the metadata template to that effect.
Any comments by anyone? Milton Beychok 22:21, 2 November 2010 (UTC)
