editEric-The changes that you made to the page on Cipher Disks are good. I like that you added information on when the cipher disk was developed and how it works. This is important information for the page to have. As I was looking at the page, I noticed a mistake in one of the sentences that was already on the page before you edited it. The sentence is in the paragraph about polyalphabetic ciphers, and says, “An easy way to do this is for the sender and the recipient to agree that a certain number of characters into the message…” I believe that the word “for” should be added before “a” and "into" should be "in" so that the sentence reads “An easy way to do this is for the sender and the recipient to agree that for a certain number of characters in the message…" I also looked at the changes Hazel made to the page, which are good and certainly useful to have. However, I think that it seems as though two very different people edited the page, and while this is not a bad thing, you two might want to try to add information using the same tone or writing style. ~Sam~ 123samantha (talk) 21:03, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
While the information on this topic has been expanded considerably, the 'voice' of the article changes noticably. I would suggest making the Civil War stuff a bit less conversational, though I can totally picture Hazel saying this in class... Anyway, you could also benefit from some more headers, because right now the page just looks disproportionate. The top part could be broken up into a section like "Development of Cipher Disks" after a short introductory piece. This will then also move up the table of contents, which right now looks a bit strange at the middle of the article. Happy Wiki-ing! BLaB1236 (talk) 02:24, 14 April 2009 (UTC)
Cipher diskes must have something to do with Treasure's Trove 2, the secret of the alchemist darChris0987654321 17:05, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
