Thanks for your answer.
I edited the links according to your suggestion. I also had a look at
the design changes you made. Looks pretty good and comprehensible to me.
But I don't see a way of splitting this article into sections. I
understand and agree that in general this is a good thing but in this
case I don't see big enough differences in the particular parts of the
text that would allow to split it into sections. I'd be pleased to be
proven wrong.
