Wired magazine article

I don't think that disturbing and rambling Wired Magazine article should be in the links list, but I'm not going to remove it quite yet. I would like some feedback first. 68.149.35.104 22:47, 28 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Reconstruction of the “blindness” page

I’ve making extensive edits to the “blindness” page, since it had started to look more like a hodge-podge of incoherent thoughts than an encyclopedia article. This is a work in progress, however, and so copy additions and edits are encouraged.

One of the most drastic changes I’ve made involves moving the web accessibility discussion to another page. This concept is broader than blindness and, besides that, the technological talk doesn’t really have much to do with the physiological condition. Kael 00:43, 21 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Eww, who wrote that?

Who wrote the 'social attitudes towards Blindness' section? Remarkably slim, and looks like it was stolen from a book. (Awfully stilted book...) --Penta 01:11, 20 Oct 2004 (UTC)

I wrote it when I overhauled the entire article a few months ago. The idea here on Wikipedia is to make copy changes if you have additional information. 68.149.34.143

these articles were linked, please add them when the article is written.

What do those numbers mean?

I rather like updating the blindness-related pages, as it is one field in which I’m interested. If you’d like to see anything added to them, please say something - User:Kael

You need to explain the 20/200 notation, or provide a reference to a page which explains it. Gdr 10:26, 2004 Jul 28 (UTC)
Sorry it took me so long. Broke my leg skydiving. There's a new link at the bottom of the page. User:Kael
Is there nothing about speaking-semaphores and those who play some music? There's one next to my house and it continues uttering "Verde para los peatones de la calle Francisco Gourié. Crucen con precaución." all the night =D --euyyn 08:35, 16 Sep 2004 (UTC)

The first time I visited this article, I could find the internal link to Braille within the "Reading and magnification" section.

Now I found it removed by Martin-C with the comment removed redundant braille link. But why are internal links redundant?

In my mind, in Wikipedia internal links are like a skeleton, and the articles around them are like the flesh. Are bones redundant?

Please help me to understand this.
