Starting review--Kev min § 20:50, 24 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Article expansion new enough and long enough at 2,735 per the character count tool. No copyvio issues identified and the single 4.8% return with earwig is to specific names rather then phrases. All paragraphs are sourced and neutral in wording. No policy violations identified in the article. Im not totally sure about the hook, do we know what sourcing Owling is utilizing for the statement of a single nest being studied?--Kev min § 21:07, 24 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Kevmin I found an exact source, that is also listed on the website as references that Owling uses for articles. I will add it now. SL93 (talk) 21:14, 24 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Kevmin What do you think of the new reference? SL93 (talk) 21:15, 24 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

With the extra reference supporting the hook statemen, we are now good to go.--Kev min § 00:06, 25 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
