Bibliography

As you gather the sources for your Wikipedia contribution, think about the following:

Is the source from a reliable publication?
- Reliable publications include established newspapers, academic journals and books, textbooks, and other published sources with reputations for accuracy and fact-checking.
- Unreliable sources include blog posts and other self-published works, press releases, and social media posts.
Is the source verifiable?
- In order for a source to be considered verifiable, other editors should be able to consult the source.
Is the source independent of the subject?
- Is the source connected in any way to the subject? This is especially important when writing biographies or about organizations.
- For example, if you were writing a biography, sources like the person's webpage or personal blog would not be considered independent.
Is the source primary or secondary?
- Primary sources include first-hand accounts, autobiographies, and other original content.
- Wikipedia allows limited use of primary sources, but typically only for straightforward, descriptive statements of facts, and only if they are published and verifiable without requiring specialized knowledge.
- Secondary sources should be the main basis for a biography on Wikipedia.
If you're working on a topic related to medicine or psychology, ensure that your sources follow these special guidelines.
If you're creating a new article, consider the following:
- Ensure that your topic meets Wikipedia's notability guidelines.
- In order for a topic to meet the notability requirement, you must be able to identify 2-3 sources that are reliable, verifiable, and independent of the subject you're writing about.
- Finding sufficient sources to establish notability can be especially hard when writing about people or organizations.
- Sources that are not independent of the subject might be useful additions, but don't count towards the notability requirement.
- Wikipedia has developed special guidelines for writing about living persons. Please follow these carefully.
- Wikipedia has a series of guidelines for writing about different categories of people, such as academics and artists. If you're trying to create a new entry about a living person, please look at these carefully.

If you're not sure whether a source is reliable, ask a librarian! If you have questions about Wikipedia's sourcing rules, you can use the Get Help button below to contact your Wikipedia Expert.

Bibliography

Edit this section to compile the bibliography for your Wikipedia assignment. Add the name and/or notes about what each source covers, then use the "Cite" button to generate the citation for that source.

Terashima, Yoshie; Neda, Hitoshi; Hiroi, Masaru. 2017. Luminescent intensity of cultured mycelia of eight basidiomycetous fungi from Japan. Japanese Society of Mushroom Science and Biotechnology.^[1]
- This journal is peer reviewed and published through an established scientific society that is based in Japan. It focuses on mechanisms and light intensity of bioluminescent mushrooms - including Mycena manipularis - which is useful information to include when discussing the bioluminescence emitted from it. Since the fungus is a significant contributor in the experiment, this could be used to establish some notability.
Sivinski, John. 1981. Arthropods Attracted to Luminous Fungi. University of Florida - Department of Entomology and Nematology.^[2]
- This scientific journal is peer reviewed, which presumably would make it a reliable source. However, Mycena manipularis is discussed only briefly, so this would not be a good journal for establishing the article's notability.
Desjardin, Dennis E; Oliveira, Anderson G; Stevani, Cassius V. 2008. Fungi Bioluminescence Revisited. Photochemical & Photobiological Sciences. ^[3]
- This article comes from a peer reviewed journal and primarily discusses the Mycenoid lineage, which Mycena manipularis and its related fungi are part of. It would not be a good source for establishing notability because the fungus is not discussed directly, rather the traits associated with its "family" are directly discussed.
Vydryakova, Galina A; Morozova, Olga V; Redhead, Scott A; Bisset, John. 2014. Observations on morphologic and genetic diversity in populations of Filoboletus manipularis (Fungi: Mycenaceae) in southern Viet Nam. Mycology.^[4]
- This paper comes from NIH which is affiliated with the US government and is designed to give the public access to scientific articles. This paper could be used to establish notability for Mycena manipularis because it focuses entirely on populations found in Viet Nam - although the name Mycena Manipularis is not used, the name Filoboletus manipularis is an alternative name for it.
Volk, Tom. 2009. Filoboletus manipularis, a poroid mushroom from the tropics. Tom Volk's Fungus of the Month.^[5]
- Although this isn't a peer reviewed article, it was published through the University of Wisconsin by a well established and respected professor (Tom Volk) of mycology. This page is part of a series Volk created to educate the public about fungi and what they looked like - it was created prior to the creation of Google Images. The article specifically focuses solely on Filoboletus manipularis (another name for mycena manipularis) which could add notability to the article.
Oba, Yuichi and Hosaka, Kentaro. 2023. The Luminous Fungi of Japan. New Perspectives on Fungal Bioluminescence - Special Issue.^[6]
- This research paper is part of a peer reviewed journal and discusses several types of bioluminescent fungi, however it has a small section dedicated to Mycena manipularis. So, it may not be good for increasing notability, however it does have valuable information about Mycena manipularis populations in Japan.

Examples:

Luke, Learie. 2007. Identity and secession in the Caribbean: Tobago versus Trinidad, 1889–1980 Kingston, Jamaica: University of the West Indies Press.
- This is a book published by a university press, so it should be a reliable source. It also covers the topic in some depth, so it's helpful in establishing notability.
Galeano, Gloria; Bernal, Rodrigo (2013-11-08). "Sabinaria , a new genus of palms (Cryosophileae, Coryphoideae, Arecaceae) from the Colombia-Panama border". Phytotaxa.
- This is a peer-reviewed scientific journal, so it should be a reliable source. It covers the topic in some depth, so it's helpful in establishing notability.
Baker, William J.; Dransfield, John (2016). "Beyond Genera Palmarum: progress and prospects in palm systematics". Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society.
- This is a peer-reviewed scientific journal, so it should be a reliable source for a specific fact. Since it only dedicates a few sentences to the topic, it can't be used to establish notability.

Outline of proposed changes

Add more about bioluminescence (mechanisms, light intensity, color, placement on fungus, etc.)
Add more about preferred environments - general and specific areas of growth.
Add more about mycenoid family and MM's relation to it.
Add more photos that display luminescence and show cultural significance, possibly include drawings that display morphology?
Include description of morphological traits and height.

Now that you have compiled a bibliography, it's time to plan out how you'll improve your assigned article.

In this section, write up a concise outline of how the sources you've identified will add relevant information to your chosen article. Be sure to discuss what content gap your additions tackle and how these additions will improve the article's quality.

Consider other changes you'll make to the article, including possible deletions of irrelevant, outdated, or incorrect information, restructuring of the article to improve its readability or any other change you plan on making. This is your chance to really think about how your proposed additions will improve your chosen article and to vet your sources even further.

Note: This is not a draft. This is an outline/plan where you can think about how the sources you've identified will fill in a content gap.
