Response by author
Dear Dr. Leung,

Thank you for coordinating the process and thanks very much to the reviewers for their comments. Before detailing how I have revised the manuscript to address the reviewers, I would like to raise a question that you may be able to help me with. Because in the field of engineering and computer vision, the phrase "object tracking" refers to tracking by computers, I think the Wikipedia page should start with something like "For visual tracking of objects by computers, see Video tracking." I would appreciate your advice on whether you think that is appropriate and if so, exactly how I should format such a phrase.

The edits I made in response to the reviewer's comments have substantially lengthened the manuscript. This made it important to add additional structure, so I've found some ways to make the article a bit more hierarchical rather being restricted to top-level headings. To do this, I demoted the heading "Use in ability testing and training" to make it a sub-heading of "Human variation and development". By bulking up the Theories and Models content, I was also able to divide that section into "Serial or parallel?" and "Slots or resources?" subsections.

I have also made a lot of small edits to improve the writing of most of the sections.

Thanks again to the reviewers. Their comments have sparked many improvements to this candidate Wikipedia article.

 * Hi Alex. Thank you for the comments and revisions in a timely manner. We will leave the "for visual tracking of objects by computers..." link out of your manuscript as your submission is intended to be a standalone article that can be dual-published in Wikipedia as well. If the article gets accepted, we will generate a PDF based on your manuscript version. When we import your manuscript into Wikipedia, that link will be added back to the top of the Wikipedia page. We will now provide your revised manuscript to the reviewers for second readthrough.  OhanaUnited  Talk page  18:16, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
