 * Symbol question.svg This review is incredibly confusing, with ticks being given out wholesale, and no reviewer signature. Reviewer: please only give one summary icon at the bottom of the review indicating its overall DYK status, and be sure to review all criteria; for example, you have not mentioned having done a check for close paraphrasing/copyvio, nor is there any mention of overall article sourcing. Is there any reason to suspect that the hook sourcing might not be reliable? Finally, since there are two hooks, you need to review them both, and be sure to mention which are approved. (Among other criteria, hooks also need to be interesting.) Thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 19:10, 7 September 2016 (UTC)

 * It's been sometime since I reviewed a DYK nom. I'm sorry my review was not more detailed and that I forgot to add a sig.
 * Copyvio checked. No problems found.
 * The first hook is now supported by the article. [Updated 9/29]
 * The second hook is a little short and lacks some zing. I suggest the following:
 * ...that the extinct sawfly Ypresiosirex orthosemos was described from a single fossil found in the McAbee Fossil Beds near Cache Creek, British Columbia?


 * The source for the second hook is a scientific article that is not accessible without a subscription, but which has been cited by numerous other articles, lending credibility to its veracity.

 * The first hook is supported by the article, specifically the etymology section of the type description.-- Kev min  § 03:51, 26 September 2016 (UTC)
 * , did you see my note regarding the first hook, and is the article passed or needing more work?-- Kev  min  § 15:15, 29 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Kevnin, while the article mentions the wing corrugation, it does not clearly state that the "corrugation" on the wings are the source of it's name. If you can clear that issue up, please do. Meanwhile, I've completed my review. Others have weighed in and I hope I've resolved those issues. I don't see anything else holding up the nom. — btphelps (talk to me) (what I've done) 18:47, 29 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Please take a look at the species etymology section, which notes "Etymology. The specific epithet orthosemos means “with vertical stripes” in Greek, referring to the distinctive transverse corrugation in the forewing basal cells."-- Kev min  § 19:49, 29 September 2016 (UTC)
 * , we must be looking at two different versions. The current version is written, "The specific epithet orthosemos is derived from Greek meaning "with vertical stipes", alluding to the texture of the wing membrane at its base". It doesn't use the word "corrugated" which is what the layperson (me) is looking to validate. — btphelps (talk to me) (what I've done) 21:22, 29 September 2016 (UTC)
 * I am looking at the article and the type description. I reworded the etymology to avoid WP:coypyvio, using "distinct texture" rather then "corrugation". However if you are going to be stringent on the wording, I have inserted "corrugated" into the sentence.  Does that satisfy?-- Kev  min  § 01:23, 30 September 2016 (UTC)

We are still waiting on if you give the nomination a pass.-- Kev min  § 17:16, 10 October 2016 (UTC)
