General info
[edit]Reviewing Taylorella equigenitalis, the causative agent of contagious equine metritis (CEM) in horses.
Content
[edit]Content added is relevant to the topic and addresses a variety of important subtopics. In addition, the content appears to be derived from a variety of up-to-date sources. There does not appear to be bias towards one particular source as each subtopic utilizes information from a variety of sources. Perhaps some more information could be included in the ‘Clinical and Economic Value’ section as this particular bacteria seems to have significant implications on the equine industry. In addition, perhaps elaborating on the incidence of streptomycin resistance. Overall, well written content.
Tone and Balance
[edit]Content added is neutral in tone and there are no claims that appear heavily biased toward a particular position. The authors did not attempt to persuade the reader in regards to the role of T.equigenitalis in disease. Instead, the authors remained unbiased and addressed that there is a current knowledge gap in regards to the pathogenesis and virulence factors of T.equigenitalis.
Sources and References
[edit]The new content is backed up by reliable primary and secondary sources that reflect the available literature. Majority of sources appear up-to-date, and there is the inclusion articles as recent as 2019. There is currently inconsistency between authors in citing format, however all links included in the article are functional.
Organization
[edit]Content is well-written, concise, and broken down into digestible sections. The article appears to follow the patterns of other similar articles published in Wikipedia - i.e. contains appropriate section headings, layout, etc. At this point in time, there are grammatical errors in the sandbox draft.
Overall impressions
[edit]Well-written article that provides new information to the existing article. Strengths of the article include breadth of information provided as well as the sources utilized. There are a couple of sections where I believe more information could be added, and the article may benefit from adding images and editing the in-text situations so that there is consistency between sections.
