General: Article is new enough and long enough
New enough: Long enough:

Policy compliance:

Adequate sourcing: - /
Neutral:
Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing:

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Cited: - Offline/paywalled citation accepted in good faith Interesting:

QPQ: Done.

Overall: The article was new enough at the time of nomination and seems long enough. It looks good but there are a few lines missing citations and I'm not sure about the tone/prose. It could probably use a little editing to be more neutral, right now it's very editorialized. BuySomeApples (talk) 23:20, 13 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

- Thanks for the feedback! I'm not sure I'd be able to improve the article, being neither an expert on the subject nor having access to the sources, but I will see what I can do. Have a great day! HenryTemplo (talk) 06:30, 14 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@BuySomeApples: Unless I am mistaken, your concerns about the citing have to do with their placement, not the actual sources. I saw a couple of "dangling" paras and had a look. One statement was clearly cited by the previous cite, I have move it. One statement was uncited and seemed to add nothing, so I removed the statement (@HenryTemplo:, check the history, re-add it if important but it will have to be separated cited and citing a negative is never simple). The remaining example is a section introduction, and thus doesn't need a cite if the topic is covered in the "body" (same logic as the lede) which in this case seems to be the case.

Thanks, Maury Markowitz, for sorting out the sourcing. Have a great day! HenryTemplo (talk) 14:02, 20 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Citations needed

Hi @User167553210 and HenryTemplo: there are a couple of sentences in here that appear to be lacking a citation:

"which makes it particularly challenging to model in vitro" (from the lead - I can't see this exact point made in the body, but correct me if I'm wrong)
"Apart from fluidic flow, other culture parameters are incorporated into intestine-on-a-chip devices, including architectural cues, mechanical stimulation, oxygen gradients and co-cultures with other cell populations and the microbiota, to more accurately display the physiological behaviour of the actual organ"

Please could you add cites for these in the next couple of days, before this goes live at DYK? Cheers — Amakuru (talk) 09:35, 27 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You really learn something new every day.

My dumb ass thought this referred to a 3D printed intestine. MightyArms (talk) 15:26, 30 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
