PEER REVIEW

Man, I hope this is the right place to be doing this.

The gymnosperm page you're editing seems to be pretty solid, but there are some improvements that could be made as well. For instance, the concluding sentence of the lead is kind of confusing - it starts by listing some of the largest groups of gymnosperms, but concludes by referencing a single species. It's hard to tell what exactly is meant by this - is that lone species the only one in a group of now-extinct Ginkgo species, is it just physically large, or what? Anyhow, I think you catch my drift.

The rest of the article is pretty solid. There are some minor grammatical errors (for instance, punctuation like periods and commas go after parentheses, not inside them), but nothing excessive. It's got a lot of references, and as I've learned from the training modules, that's always good. I checked some of the sources out, and they all seemed fairly reliable, such as the "Catalogue of Life - Conifer database". Good stuff!

All in all, it seems like a pretty decent start to things. I wonder if this peer review is long enough?

Much love, Nswizzle64 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nswizzle64 (talkcontribs) 01:23, 6 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
