Some proposed changes

It is requested that an edit be made to the semi-protected article at R. (edit · history · last · links · protection log)

This template must be followed by a complete and specific description of the request, that is, specify what text should be removed and a verbatim copy of the text that should replace it. "Please change X" is not acceptable and will be rejected; the request must be of the form "please change X to Y".

The edit may be made by any autoconfirmed user. Remember to change the |answered=no parameter to "yes" when the request has been accepted, rejected or on hold awaiting user input. This is so that inactive or completed requests don't needlessly fill up the edit requests category. You may also wish to use the {{ESp}} template in the response. To request that a page be protected or unprotected, make a protection request.

Suggest replacing the first paragraph with this amended text: The Pacific Institute for Studies in Development, Environment, and Security is a non-profit research institute created in 1987 to combine science-based research and analysis with active outreach to inform local, national, and international efforts to develop sustainable water policies.
