(→‎Infographic: VisualEditor mauled this page, but I think the diff is still vaguely readable. In short, the big changes are in the #Infographic section, where I'm messing with the infographic links. A lot of wikitext whitespace was taken out by VisualEditor, and I added a #Footnotes section while I was reviewing the diffs, since VisualEditor put the "references" tag in without me asking for it.)
