GA Review

[edit]

Article (edit | visual edit | history) · Article talk (edit | history) · Watch
Hi, I am reviewing this article for GA. Just a few nitpicks:

  • "Prior to this, it had since 1968 been situated in the Pyronemaceae family ..." - this seems a bit clunky.
  • I cannot make sense out of the image in the infobox. What is going on with it? The other image looks like a cup.
  • I've switched things around so that the taxobox image is a classic cup-shape, while the other pic, which shows an older ripped or bruised specimen, has been moved further down with an explanatory caption. Sasata (talk) 03:21, 4 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • One of your sources says that diseased seeds fail to germinate,[1] but you only say this indirectly: "a possible cause for seed plants sown in local nurseries failing to germinate."
Have rewritten the sentence to more accurately reflect what the source says. Sasata (talk) 03:21, 4 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Since it is such a short article, perhaps you could be a little less terse in your descriptions, although the wikilinks to do a good job of explaining.
I added a bit more explanatory prose to introduce the section on the imperfect state, and tweaked the prose elsewhere. Also added a mycomorphbox, and a bit more info about the derivation of the genus and species names. Sasata (talk) 03:21, 4 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
