I see on the sandbox page the third paragraph has been re-worded by the user, and it is more clear in what the two methods to slow extinct are. This Wikipedia page has a lot of information already on it, so I'm not sure what direction the group is wanting to go in for editing purposes. There is one section: food security and nature degradation that could be researched more. Many trees are planted for aesthetic purposed in developed areas rather than functional purposes.

One area the group may want to look into is urban conservation/restoration. This area of conservation and restoration ecology seems to be not as well know, and it could either be in the applications section on this page.

One area of urban conservation focuses on residential land owners turn their grass yards into habitat by using native plants that support the local ecosystem. A few weeks UAB had Dr. Doug Tallamy speak at the Hill Center, and he has published a couple of books about the habitat loss in the U.S. and what private land owners can do to help rebuild some of the ecosystems. He has two books that I know of, the most recent being Nature's Best Hope and the other is Bringing Nature Home. If enough sources and information can be found I think the article could really benefit from urban section because when most think about conservation and habitat restoration, myself included until a couple of years ago, it's in more of an isolated setting. Considering more rural areas are becoming developed and we are decreasing the habitats of many organisms, I think it would be beneficial to include the information. I'm not sure if this would be considered a content gap?
