The objection I have with the current layout is the enormous swath of white space in the middle. I don't understand why the Fischer projection absolutely must line up with structure; the page is short enough that without the white space, everything lines up with structure.

I went ahead and removed the Fischer projection becuase we don't really need two images providing the same information. Also, the headers are gone, because the article is so short that it really doesn't justify having three subdivisions. Isopropyl 07:37, 1 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It's customary to discuss changes on an article's talk page, rather than reverting them outright. Isopropyl 07:37, 5 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

whats with the picture? its quite poor both in resolution and technical accuracy. Xcomradex 01:41, 17 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

i mean the first picture, the fischer projection is nice, and imo should replace the other picture. Xcomradex 01:44, 17 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like something has gone wrong with the formatting the heading lines go all the way through the infobox. Also I think the inline references are supposed to be links, so I think I'm going to mark it for clean up, so someone who knows more than me can sort it out.
