i think the whole section of 'impact of attacks' should be removed while a nice side note for some general hash knowledge it really doesn't provide any critical or significant knowledge one can mention in another section how some hashes use colored chalk or other products besides white flour due to security concerns in certain areas of the world united states after anthrax scares in that would take a single sentence and make the readability much better i also removed the section regarding 'how to get started' since the syntax and grammar were poor and difficult to read please take the time to critically go over what you write entire sections really are not needed when one or two sentences can convey the same information regarding the 'popularity of the hash and the internet' something like that seems quite subjective and thus eligible for removal i learned about hashing through a friend but would likely not be nearly as involved if not through internet lists and sites however it doesn't men the internet itself made it more popular any more than magazines subscriptions for people that are probably already likely hashers makes a difference in itself mblitch
