GA Review

This review is transcluded from Talk:NK1 receptor antagonist/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.

There a few problems with flow of the prose, but more annoying is the quality of the pictures. Xasodfuih (talk) 12:59, 3 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Also there's quite a bit of overlinking, e.g. vasodilatory and tachykinin are linked twice in the same paragraph in the history section. Xasodfuih (talk) 13:02, 3 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The attribution style that's normally used in science papers doesn't quite work on the wiki, e.g. "In 1971 Chang managed ..." doesn't work for a general audience (who is this Chang?). The references at the end of the sentence aren't papers by Chang. Xasodfuih (talk) 13:06, 3 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The neurokinin-1 receptor section is a bit long; this is okay for term paper, but on the wiki this section should be moved/merged to Tachykinin receptor 1, which has less detail, and just a summary should be kept here. Xasodfuih (talk) 13:14, 3 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
There are some problems with the organization of the historical material. The section intro and the 1st subsection of "Drug discovery and development" section should be moved to the history section. The "Other compounds" should be top level section that discusses all the compounds; this should probably include the binding section. I realize that the current organization is due to the focus of the original article, which was titled Discovery_and_development_of_neurokinin_1_receptor_antagonists, but this should be fixed for GA. Xasodfuih (talk) 13:27, 3 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I'm failing this GAN due to lack of any edits/improvements in the week since I wrote my review above. Please renominated after addressing the issues detailed above. Xasodfuih (talk) 23:44, 10 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
