Addressed comments from Crisco 1492 edit

Prose comments from Crisco 1492
  • "Evil is generally explained as the direct result of the free will of humans, as well as being a punishment for the evil use of free will." - So essentially evil breeds evil?
  • Would his contemporary perhaps be Fortunatus of Spoleto or Fortunatus of Todi?
  • Link names and important terms again on their first use outside of the lede
  • "he is either not omnipotent," - Is the standard in theological articles He or he?
  • Perhaps a link on "materialism"
  • Link "moral evil" on the first occurrence
  • Seems to be a bit of underlinking. I've already linked Gentile da Fabriano, please ensure that key concepts and names of people with articles are linked.
  • Standardise the Wikisource references (one has a date, one doesn't)
  • That's it for today. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 13:09, 30 August 2012 (UTC)Reply
Thank you for your feedback.
  • The theodicy casts punishment for sin as the reason evil exists, and the misuse of free will as the reason that it continues to occur. I have reworded the sentence to that effect.
  • I don't think Fortunatus is either of the two linked: the person in question was a Manichaean; the two you linked were Roman Catholoic. I don't think we have a page on this Fortunatus.
  • Done.
  • I tend to refer to God as he, rather than He. Though it is not specifically mentioned, it seems to fit with the advice at MOS:HONORIFIC, and guidelines about how we refer to figures such as Mohammed. Articles such as God use the lowercase version.
  • Done.
  • Done.
  • Done.
  • Done.
That's all; let me know if there's anything else you see. Thank you. ItsZippy (talkcontributions) 14:32, 30 August 2012 (UTC)Reply
  • "similar to the formation of a habit." - Perhaps "similar to the formation of habits."?
  • Images look fine. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 03:30, 31 August 2012 (UTC)Reply
