(Redirected from Wikipedia:Peer review/Polish cochineal)
I created this article a few days ago. I requested feedback, but didn't receive any and I hope it means that this article is simply good. It has been rated as B-class by WikiProject Arthropods which is quite a success, consindering I'm not a biologist. I would appreciate any comments and suggestions. Not being a native English speaker, I will be particularly grateful for pointing out (or correcting) any linguistic or stylistic mistakes. Thanks, Kpalion 19:45, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

- Hi Kpalion. I think the article is quite good, and would recommend a copy-edit. You can check in with Wikipedia:WikiProject League of Copyeditors, or I'd be willing to do it (or both). Could you find more sources, and/or expand the number of inline citations? With work in these areas, it would be a fine Featured article candidate. I may also be able to find some journal articles on the topic, but I'm not sure how obscure these bugs are. You can email me if you want to pursue such sources. –Outriggr § 01:44, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks for prompt feedback, Outriggr. Most of the information in this article comes from two articles listed in the "Sources" section, so I decided to use inline citation only for fact taken from other sources. Please let me know if you have a better suggestion. The topic does seem pretty obscure, even Polish sources are scarce. I will be trying to get my hands on Jakubski's monograph, but I'm not sure if and when I will find it (besides, it was written before WW2). I will appreciate any additional sources, especially in English, you can find. What should I do to request the League's help in copy-editing? Kpalion 14:15, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
- You can submit a request at Wikipedia:WikiProject League of Copyeditors/proofreading under the section "Requests for copy-editing assistance". I found some mentions of the P.C. in articles that I could email you. However, they are probably of limited use. If you wish, send me an email first so I can reply with attachments. This article is better than B class so I suggest you at least try for a "Good Article" stamp of approval. –Outriggr § 01:39, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks again for the materials you sent me, I used some of them to improve the article. The article has been copy-edited and is now listed as a good article. — Kpalion(talk) 11:11, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
