5x expanded by Cwmhiraeth (talk). Self-nominated at 05:48, 25 May 2016 (UTC).


 * Symbol question.svg Corchorus capsularis looks to be good to go, 5x expansion is good, new enough, and well cited. Corchorus olitorius is expanded enough and new enough.  The choice of the least common vernacular name is a bit odd.  Also the reference used for the name notes that it is unlikely to actually be the "mallow" referred to in Job.  That should be clarified in the article.-- Kev  min  § 15:19, 26 May 2016 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure that it is the least popular vernacular name. Anyway, I have added some extra information to the article about its biblical mention and some more about its use in Egypt. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 17:50, 26 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg Articles still 5x expansion new enough, meet length requirements, and well cited.  No policy issues were identified with the articles at this time, and the ambiguity has been cleared up.  Looks good to go, and apologies for the delay in review.-- Kev  min  § 18:19, 30 May 2016 (UTC)
