I had a hard time to understand why should I read the article after the first part, I think an intro would be good,what are distributed systems,who makes them, who uses this patterns with real examples.
I think I understood the patterns but not why they exists, where can I use them etc.

Hi! thanks for the feedback.
I changed a bit the introduction based on your input.
The article is not supposed to be an introduction to distributed systems, instead it aims to document a specific aspect of such systems, which are consistency models.
