Editing choices to note:
MLA author-date system
Old style/new style date templates: both for accurate comparison with primary and secondary sources AND for article stability
Consistent use of serial comma
Rationale for a separate "biography" article
Many citations for each claim to compensate for reliance on the two biographies in English
Use of "in order to" to make relationships clear
In addition to an account of his life and work, article aims to set locate Stanislavski's theoretical ideas and practical techniques firmly within an historical narrative--a recurrent problem in commentary on his work has been a tendency to conflate ideas and work from different periods
Long article (give readable prose size as word count), but important to provide an overview of life in one place, in preference to several articles detailing work in different stages
Changed all commas near quotation marks to the "UK" logical punctuation, as it appears to be mandated by MoS, although I don't like it one bit. I have checked all quotations to ensure that the original punctuation is reproduced where appropriate (full-stops inside when in the source, outside when not).
