- 14:3814:38, 30 August 2022 diff hist +491 Aphorism Updated the opening paragraph to include the alternate definition given by Andrew Hui. Likewise, I changed the example aphorism in the History section. That was a better example of a proverb or a maxim or an axiom than it was of an aphorism. In its place, I offer a statement which better approximates an aphorism without coming to close to another category of short sayings. Tag: Visual edit

- 19:0519:05, 12 July 2021 diff hist 0 m Heraclitus →The River: Phrasing and grammar. Changed one word and a comma. Tag: Visual edit
- 19:0519:05, 12 July 2021 diff hist +381 m Heraclitus →The River: Minor edits to the opening lines of the River Section. Upon recommendation, I have edited to make it such that, in the opening section, the three fragments which have typically been attributed to Heraclitus are included. In combination with the concluding sentence which clarifies that their attribution is disputed, and the following paragraph's discussion of dialect etc. I think the article better reflects the state of the conversation about the River fragments.

- 14:4814:48, 12 July 2021 diff hist +1,188 m Heraclitus →The River: In the section on the river, I have expanded the first paragraph to mention that scholars debate which of the fragments about the river can be attributed to Heraclitus. At the end of the section, I added a few sentences to mention M.M. McCabe, who suggests that the fragments on rivers can all be attributed, and read as an argument. The function of these edits is to give an insight into the debate regarding whether Heraclitus was argumentative or aphoristic. Tag: Visual edit
