Basis of typification and acknowledgement of user contribution[edit]

In the final section of the stub, 'Mineral Fibers', the basis of categorization is not obvious, nor is the source from which the categorization has been reproduced named. Perhaps someone could check up on that and mention the basis of categorization as well as the source. This section further names the contributer and the company which he belongs to. I am sure that is against the rules. So, I deleted the name. Priyatu 10:34, 25 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Tone, spelling, and grammar[edit]

I have just copyedited the page, but more work could still be used. I'm going to keep this tagged as a page that needs copyediting.

I revised the lead section to add references and describe "natural fibers" instead of "fibers." MTLE4470 grp8 kml (talk) 15:30, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I also revised the plant fibers section to include references. I removed the sentences after the plant fibers table because I could not find references for those. MTLE4470 grp8 kml (talk) 22:05, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Tensile strength[edit]

Seeking info about tensile strength of specific fibers. Had to delete remark about bast fibers having greater tensile strength, as leaf fibers from some plants are stronger than bast fibers from other plants; It may well be that the source of the strongest natural fiber are the bast fibers of a specific plant, but that is a different remark.
