It has come a ways since it first appeared, but there are sections with notes the author has made for enhancements. PR is for entries that are basically finished, not in progress.
The author hasn't posted anything since April 15th. I was going to wait a few more days and then propose a move to the Flea Market.

Well it looks like a scout has picked this as one of their picks for the month so we'll see what the consensus is with the italics. It wasn't me who picked it tho.

If Ashley's decided it's not ready, and if the author's not around any more, should we be thinking about a move for this one? And to where?

I think it should go to FM and whoever rescues it should seriously consider a trip through the CWW.

Seconded, over to FM with it.
And the first thing that needs to happen to any rescued copy is a name change. It's got nothing to with AOL anymore.

The researcher changed the title quite a while back to "The Evolution of Language on the Internet". But that was one of my original grumbles that was addressed.

You read the entry yet you miss the one thing that's right in front of your face 
Oh the power of the 'Subject' box when typing up one's replies

Well it still seems to be hanging around here in PR. I'll drop a little reminder into the Eds

I know. By my reckoning there are about 20 moves that have proposed by the Scouts that the Italics seem to be just ignoring 
Do you think they could do with a gentle reminder?

::tip-toes in quietly::
Is anybody around?
Can I make a quick get-away with this entry back to my private domain before anybody notices?
I'm going to do the research and finish it over the next two months.
Then I'll put it back up in Peer Review.
Promise.
