More Edits and Suggestions

This page is looking good! I changed the physiology section to description and moved it to the top of the article, distributed the photos from the gallery to other parts of the article, added a photo of a host plant, and made some other style/grammar edits. Like Jennifer said, I would clear up the migration section; it would maybe work better with the title of "flight" if the butterfly doesn't actually migrate? I think the food resources category could also be combined with the parental care category, since both are talking about the same things just in slightly different contexts. Good luck!

Suggestions/Edits

Hi, you're page seems pretty good :) So, I mainly made changes to a lot of the wording of the article. Many sentences were constantly beginning with the same subjective word (i.e. “the Geranium bronze..” or “the butterfly”). Also, I had some suggestions here! i. Migration section: 1. can you make it clearer as to whether or not the butterflies actually migrate? Are they migrating from South Africa or is it considered “migrating” if they were actually carried by humans? 2. Slightly confused as to where they are flying form South Africa… are they trying to leave the cold weather? ii. Predator section: 1. Are there Geranium plants in South Africa at all? Is that a possibility as to why they are not pests in native home? Also, maybe adding specific predators, if you have the information? iii. Also, I added another paragraph to the end of the "predator of plants" section, discussing possible economic problems that arose due to these butterfly predations. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jenniferra (talk • contribs) 03:33, 5 October 2017 (UTC)

Just thought they'd be some ideas that might help make the page better! Jenniferra (talk) 00:37, 5 October 2017 (UTC)

Edits

Hi, I thought your page was great, but it lacked a lot of links to other pages when words that aren't common were used. I added these links, and I fixed some grammatical issues and some sentences that I thought were confusing. Great job!Lily1004 (talk) 22:13, 4 October 2017 (UTC)

Great job on the page! I also added some external links and fixed some grammatical errors. I thought your page had a lot of diverse and detailed information! CR.Tracy (talk) 23:19, 30 November 2017 (UTC)

Hi! I am working on this Wikipedia page for my Behavioral Ecology class at Washington University in St. Louis. I edited the introduction in order to update and organize it. I also deleted some of the outdated information and replaced it with more current information. I moved the description of the wingspan and butterfly attributes to a physiology section. In addition, I created 12 new sections, including Geographic range, Food resources, Life history, Egg, Caterpillar, Pupa, Migration, Predators, Oviposition, Plant selection for egg laying, Pest of plants, Use of pesticides, and Physiology. I added my references to the reference section as well. Thanks! Mlopez2121 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 03:09, 3 October 2017 (UTC)
