Hi KJ, Jodan here. I don't think I need to explain the polishing process to you. Let me know if I should, since you're a miner, not a gem polisher.
I don't really know if it will be me or GTBacchus that will polish your entry Why? but I wanted to give the message now.
It's a pretty simple polishing. I don't expect there's anything to change in the body of the entry. We could center it and/or insert s in between stanzas. In the Post version, it was centered, and that's the general format for poetry.
The only thing that confuses people (More than a few) is the subheader at the end that many think are switched around dates. Perhaps we should add a Footnote to explain them?
Something that looks awkward is the UG Blob <./>B3767758</.> that is supposed to go the the right. I could center this at the top or I could take it out completely. What do you reckon?
Thanks a lot
Jodan

Jodan,
I'm pretty much fine with what you've suggested there.
(Sorry PC decided to overheat, so had to wait till I got a new one)

I'm working on it now, but I could use some clarification. What should the footnote read as? I'm uncomfortable adding it myself.

how about
Ciaron was pronounced dead before he was delivered?

I just centered it, added the graphic and the footnote. It was a relatively easy job, which is why I allocated it to myself
