robot decided to do it after all. So I just went ahead and did everything to do with that. Now everything is in PDF form except for the two I was unable to convert/open.

I might fail as well as you, but which two were they? I could try.

Eh, if you MUST have all in PDF, at least keep a link to the word versions to save me the trouble of converting back again... Easy to convert to PDF, hard to get back... save me from going back to my world of crime, sailing in high seas and pirating vulnerable ships...

I edited the Prokaryotes page. However, I still think it needs some more.

Fixed mousetrap. Boy that was a bad article...
Thank you, outdated by 2 or 3 years, but I was afraid that I would ruin it if I did any radical changes. It's interesting because Mousetrap Vehicle could be considered my best event.

A general thing to adhere to is that as along as you're adding information to the page, then it's a good radical edit. So if you want to, you can totally revamp the structure, as long as you're not taking out any large chunks of information.

Don't let being afraid of ruining a page prevent you from editing it. Mistakes can be fixed, and the only way to gain experience is to make edits.

Incidentally, we surpassed 500 edits for the month today, counting userspace edits. This is incredible productivity- let's go for 1K by the end of January.
