 * Symbol voting keep.svg Very nice article. New and long enough. QPQ completed. No copyvios (via Dermaptera's, sorry, Earwig's copy vio tool). Good inline citations. I have tweaked the article slightly to enhance the hook's link between lacewings and Neuroptera - something that not everyone may at first appreciate. So article is Good to go, but I offer an alternative with a slightly stronger hook for consideration.
