User:Rjensen revised the Usage Panel section in a way that added some useful information about the motivations behind the creation of the Usage Panel, but which didn't accurately describe the current panel. I moved some of that information to the "History" section, deleting the "elderly" gibe but retaining the reference to the panelists' linguistic conservatism. I also deleted the totally inaccurate claim that there are 1000 members on the panel, and while I was at it I corrected the "perscriptivism" typo in the citation. Hope that's OK. 206.208.105.129 ( talk) 13:28, 6 July 2011 (UTC)

Sentence "The first edition's predecessor titled The American Heritage Dictionary, Second College Edition was ..." must surely mean "The first edition's successor ..." and doesn't need the word "titled." I will pause some days and check back for talk on this point. Kcor53 ( talk) 13:27, 8 October 2015 (UTC)kcor53
I caught that too; since no one else has commented in the interim I will make that change. Wdowling ( talk) 19:46, 2 January 2016 (UTC)
Looking good. My "few days" turned into many months! Kcor53 ( talk) 14:17, 4 January 2016 (UTC)
Since syllabication is one of the most prominent features of this dictionary, I'd add information about it and a link to the rules followed for syllabication -- Backinstadiums ( talk) 20:47, 5 July 2020 (UTC)
