Comments

 * This diagram, and diagrams like it, should have the source info within the template box, not outside.
 * Done.


 * It would seem the article needs some kind of historical section that covers history of research, and the context of how some of the various concepts were proposed. I'm sure the subject was pondered even in antiquity. And you've been good at covering similar context in previous articles.
 * Added a summary section. Chiswick Chap (talk) 11:59, 16 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Looks good, perhaps it should be placed at the beginning of the article. Also, a space is lacking before "In Early Modern". FunkMonk (talk) 05:45, 17 March 2018 (UTC)


 * There are some duplicate links, even within one pantograph. Perhaps try this script:
 * Done. Love the pantograph.
 * Haha, damn, great spell checker I have installed... FunkMonk (talk) 10:28, 17 March 2018 (UTC)


 * "A definitive or primary host is the one in which a parasite, reaches maturity and" The comma looks out of place.
 * Fixed.


 * Is this UK or US English? For example I see both "recognised" and "harbors", should be checked throughout.
 * Brit.


 * "Locusts are highly polyphagous, feeding on all parts of a wide variety of plants." Are locusts really considered parasites or guests, though?
 * Removed, it isn't needed in any case.


 * I'm not sure what your system of giving common or scientific names in parenthesis is. Seems very inconsistent.
 * Used English throughout, where a common name exists; have suppressed Latin parentheticals as not needed here.


 * "Remoras can swim freely" You could give the alternate common name (suckerfish) after, I didn't know it was a fish until I clicked the link.
 * Done. I'd actually never hear the alternate name until this moment.


 * Looks fine to me now, so will pass. FunkMonk (talk) 10:47, 18 March 2018 (UTC)
