    I'n not sure what the category might be, but consider this:

    "I make good on the preceding paragraph below."

    I don't see it. It seems to be a claim that whatever promise/claim made
    in the preceding paragraph is being honoured/supported further on in the
    post.
    Now if that "on' had been an "in" ...

    It is an incomplete and dishonest quote. From the author,
    "I expect that several fans of this triumvirate will make this

    because I make good on the preceding paragraph below. "

    But you knew that.
