- Too many missing citations, please fix this before renominating. FunkMonk (talk) 06:58, 11 November 2013 (UTC)
- While I agree that this article was NOT ready for GA (and specifically recommended against nomination, but that is a discussion for another time - I applaud the enthusiasm of the students who wanted to nominate it), I am curious which particular points needed to be sourced.

- Every paragraph that doesn't end with a citation, I count at least ten. None would be the minimum requirement for GA. FunkMonk (talk) 17:18, 12 November 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks. I'll see what I can do about that. Alas, some of those unsourced paragraphs (suborders, life stages) are considered very basic "everywhere knowledge" that goes uncited in most textbooks on the subject. I would be happy to just reference one of the taxonomic textbooks, but that feels lazy. It would probably be better to cite the original Carl Linnaeus documents on the subject - but I'm not sure what the specifics are. Advice? Aderksen (talk) 00:03, 14 November 2013 (UTC)
