Thanks @P199:... I have reworded parts that are not quotes or names of institutions/journals etc. Thanks for ALT1. Whispyhistory (talk) 12:14, 4 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

for ALT1a. Although it went down to only 29.6%, it appears that this is due to a lot of long institution/journal names and a few common expressions. I can live with that. Thanks for this good new article. -- P 1 9 9 ✉ 15:34, 4 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
