This looks an interesting article and, on a cursory glance, it looks as it is is close to meeting the Good Article criteria. I will start a review shortly. simongraham (talk) 13:42, 11 July 2024 (UTC)


 * Thank you Simon, as a note I will be travelling this weekend but should have plenty of time to respond to any fixes on Monday at the latest. Fritzmann (message me) 14:53, 12 July 2024 (UTC)

Thank you for the note, Fritzmann. I hope you have safe travels. I will start with some general comments.

Comments

 * Overall, the standard of the article is high.
 * It is of short, but adequate length, with 956 words of readable prose.
 * The lead is reasonable given the length of the article at 120 words.
 * Authorship is 98,2% from the nominator.
 * It is currently assessed as a B class article.

Assessment
The six good article criteria:
 * 1) It is reasonable well written.
 * the prose is clear, concise, and understandable to an appropriately broad audience; spelling and grammar are correct;
 * Suggest some of the terms are quite advanced and may not be understandable to a general reader. For example, "specific epithet" could be replaced by "name of the species" and maybe explain what vittae are in the first instance.
 * Changed
 * The phrase "The leaf is a wide oval shape to almost circular" could be reworded to become more clear. How about "The leaf is a wide oval that is nearly a circle".
 * Changed to "...ranges in shape from a wide oval to almost circular..."
 * Should there be a comma before the "and" in "It is entirely hairless and it grows in tufts of stems that ascend from a central taproot" as they are independent clauses?
 * Added
 * it complies with the Manual of Style guidelines for lead, layout and word choice.
 * It seems to comply with the MoS.
 * 1) It is factually accurate and verifiable.
 * it contains a reference section, presented in accordance with the layout style guideline;
 * A reference section is included, with sources listed.
 * Please include page numbers for the Robson souces. For example, I believe the 1993 article is pages 67 to 70.
 * Added
 * all inline citations are from reliable sources;
 * Spot checks confirm Robson 1993 and Ocak et al. 2009 confirm that they cover the topic.
 * Crockett & Robson 2011 finishes on page 13 so I believe fn 12 is incorrect.
 * Yep typo, corrected to page 13.
 * it contains no original research;
 * All statements are referenced.
 * it contains no copyright violations nor plagiarism;
 * Earwig gives a 8.3% chance of copyright violation, which means it is very unlikely.
 * 1) It is broad in its coverage
 * it addresses the main aspects of the topic.
 * Key facts are covered.
 * it stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style).
 * The article is compliant.
 * 1) It has a neutral point of view.
 * it represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to different points of view.
 * The article covers an academic discussion on its taxonomy in a balanced manner.
 * 1) It is stable.
 * it does not change significantly from day to day because of any ongoing edit war or content dispute.
 * There is no evidence of edit wars.
 * 1) It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
 * images are tagged with their copyright statuses, and valid fair use rationales are provided for non-free content;
 * The images are marked with an appropriate CC tag.
 * images are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions.
 * The sole image is a map. Is there one of the plant?
 * I was able to find a holotype collection that is freely licensed. Unfortunately there aren't any of the plant in the wild.
 * Thank you. The image is CC tagged.

An interesting article. Please take a look at my comments above and ping me when you would like me to take another look. simongraham (talk) 12:54, 13 July 2024 (UTC)
 * I believe I've made the required changes, thanks especially for catching the ref page error. Let me know if there is anything else you catch! Fritzmann (message me) 13:35, 14 July 2024 (UTC)
 * That looks excellent. I believe that this article meets the criteria to be a Good Article.
