Done!

• Edit https://conwaylife.com/w/index.php?titl ... did=141739 should be reverted. It damages an internal link, and it removes the rulestring which is useful for readers who are not familiar with aliases. A reader should not have to follow the link to know the rulestring.
• Edit https://conwaylife.com/w/index.php?diff ... did=142301 should be reverted. A block array larger than 1x1 is not Blockic (see viewtopic.php?p=172692#p172692 for context).
• Edit https://conwaylife.com/w/index.php?titl ... did=142300 should be reverted. A bi-block is not a Blockic constellation (see viewtopic.php?p=172692#p172692 for context).

• The edit https://conwaylife.com/w/index.php?diff ... did=142604 removes an ambox linking to a discussion thread. The ambox is relevant, and it should be readded back, since the discussion is open.
• The edit https://conwaylife.com/w/index.php?diff ... did=142933 should be reverted. The bolded text in the lead should not contain links in general, and in this case the same link is already present later in text.
• The edit https://conwaylife.com/w/index.php?diff ... did=140938 should be reverted. A factory is either a non-glider gun or a stationary device that produces a stationary object (still life/oscillator). "non-spaceship guns" do not exist, and methuselahs are not relevant.
• The edit https://conwaylife.com/w/index.php?diff ... did=142310 removes a link to tagalong. The link tagalong should be restored back.

This can handle all but 4 phases of Karel's p15. Yet this can handle all that Model D can handle, despite being miles smaller!
A higher-period oscillator to provide the spark is better in this case, as there are more phases which work. (The 4 sparking phases remain consistent). But it will also make the repeat time higher. Very neat observation!
