[edit]Hello, I am an undergraduate student at Washington University in St. Louis editing this page for a class assignment. For this article, I restructured the page to organize it in a way with which things flow together better. Specifically, I deleted main sections which didn’t need their own section and moved them to be subsections under other main sections (such as ‘Defense Behavior’ and ‘Provisioning Behavior’ under 'Behavior'). I think this is easier to follow than each specific behavior having its own main section. I also renamed some sections, such as ‘Female Body Size and Provisioning’ to ‘Provisioning Behavior’ and moved this section under the main ‘Behavior’ section, because this section primarily describes female provisioning behavior, in which specific animal behavior is an emphasis of this course. I also took the liberty of proofreading and making grammatical corrections, including syntactical and spelling errors (i.e. ‘initation’ & ‘initiation’). Overall, this is a very promising start to an article, keep up the good work! Marcus.kwon (talk) 20:43, 21 October 2015 (UTC)

[edit]This article is well written and very thorough. However, I am a bit confused with the nest sections. The article states that the bees have a tendency to stay within the same nest until some catastrophe occurs that forces the bees to produce a new nest. However, this nest creates a bias towards the bees that have already dispersed and that will produce descendants that will disperse, but how will this tendency continue and what’s the point of having it be an advantage if it is preferential for descendants to stay within the same old nest for generations? I’ve also added a few hyperlinks to keywords within the article. All in all, this was a well-written article! Vsalazar258 (talk) 04:12, 23 October 2015 (UTC)

[edit]This article is well written, and includes information on the variation in sociality during differing times of the season. I might add something regarding the size of males compared to female workers or gynes. Overall a well written and interesting article including many well cited facts.
