I'm going ahead and making periodic sentence the article. I'm also using most of the text from that article, as it (especially the example) is simpler and clearer. |

"In rhetoric, a period is an unusually impressive, well-balanced, and stately sentence." Though this may often be true, it does not stand well as a defining first sentence. Can we come up with more precise definitions of "period"? --Wetman 02:05, 21 Oct 2004 (UTC)
I agree
The definition is not clear at all and the sample is to confuss to help in the definition.
We need a more precise definition of this with, perhap, more examples on such an obsure subject.
