[edit]

The lead is concise. Explains the topic and is not overly detailed. The "removes a hydrogen" seems redundant but that may be helpful to a non-chemistry person. Also, I assume the infobox on the right side of the page (with the cas number, picture, ect), was not meant to be removed. If it was, I think it should stay.

Content is also very strong. This article was a good refresher on the compound for me. The content is worded and explained well enough that someone who did not know about the topic could also understand it. The new section on ligand characteristics is excellent, that is an absolutely necessary section for this article. One suggestion for future content would be adding some information about the history of its use as a ligand and the practical qualities. I don't think this is necessary for this assignment, this is just what came to mind when I thought about expanding the article.

Tone of the article raises no concern. You presented the information in a neutral tone.

The sources have good variety and are all easily accessible. The addition of some primary sources is very helpful. I'm not sure about the YouTube video and some of the other website sources. I could be wrong about this, but if you haven't already I would double check that these are acceptable.

- note: I don't doubt the information from the website sources are correct, I just am not sure if these sources are considered reliable by Wikipedia because they are not all from accredited/peer reviewed sources.

I like the organization of the article, you have presented the important information first and it got more complicated as it went on. I also like the final rewritten section about Cp and Copernicium; this is very interesting. I didn't notice any grammar mistakes. The layout of the article looks nice and appropriately separates different information into separate paragraphs.

The new image is good and aids the reader when reading the section on aromaticity. Again, hopefully you can keep the infobox from the original article. If you were to add more images, I think images of some Cp metal complex's would be beneficial to the section describing the possible hapticities of Cp as a ligand.

Overall I think you have made non-trivial improvements to this article. Great overall improvement from the original stub. My suggestions would be to double check the sources and maybe add another image in one of the lower sections to provide some more visual aid.
