Nice use of examples to support your analysis. Jmmcabee (talk) 17:47, 18 April 2017 (UTC)jmmcabeeReply

Comments on Ideas Draft

edit

You have given some general ideas about what you could do on each page. Evaluate each article like you did for the botany and plant physiology articles. Then make a specific suggestion for a new or modified sentence with a reference. Jmmcabee (talk) 19:24, 26 April 2017 (UTC)jmmcabeeReply

Comments on Article Revision

You've got some good ideas to add to this article. You probably want to expand this to include what makes stinging trichomes sting, for example, maybe with some information about the morphology or cell structure of the trichomes. Read through out loud and make sure the language is as precise as possible. Get a friend to read it to make sure it makes sense to your audience.

Comments on second draft

edit

Make sure you do your citations inline and in the correct format (you can use the citation tool). Add a new section labeled 2nd draft for whatever you want peer-reviewed by tomorrow. Jmmcabee (talk) 18:11, 15 May 2017 (UTC)jmmcabeeReply

Everything you have chosen to add is relevant to the topic and improves the article. Your tone is very neutral and fact based. While this is a good start, there is a lot that could be added. I think it would be interesting to add a section on the chemical compounds contained in glandular trichomes. Terpenes, alkaloids, etc. I found a great source on this when I was researching for this article a few weeks ago called "The Role of Trichomes in Plant Defense" by Donald Levin. You mention that Urtica trichomes release toxins, you could discuss the chemical makeup of those toxins. Your work is properly cited and your source is good. If you don't want to get into glandular trichomes I would try to find another source on stinging trichomes so you have more info. Also, try to cut out some of the redundant phrases in what you have so far. Nice work. Interesting topic. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Njstein77 (talkcontribs) 01:37, 22 May 2017 (UTC)Reply

I like how you included some examples for better understanding. It would be more clear if you could move the 4th sentence closer to the first one to continue with the topic of large herbivores. Maybe there is a typing error at the end of the 3rd sentence. Including one more article, could make it a more reliable information. Overall, it was a great section to read!
