Evaluate the drafted changes
The user added an Origin and diversification section to the heterotroph wikipedia page. The content added is indeed relevant to the topic, as it has to do with the hisorical context of the growing importance of heterotrophs in scientific work, centering around the origin of life theories. The user has provided a broad list of credible sources, most of which are very current (created within the last 20 years). All scientists involved in developing these theories states in the article do not have anything to do with the equity gap, but the information stated is true.

Although content is valid, many supporting sentences use words such as "heralded" or "championed" that may be skewed to show slight bias towards these scientists and their theories. The article also mainly deals with the origin of life theory and does not expand on other theories of the time period, although this may be still considered valid since this theory is most supported in modern day science.

The references exhibit a wide variety of journals and sources that contribute to the article's validity. When links are accessed they all function correctly.

The addition lacks images, and could probably do with a few to explain the theory or the contributing persons.

Overall, the article is very well-written with few to none grammatical errors. Scientific jargon is clearly stated and explained. The paragraph sections it is broken into make sense, although the introductory paragraph seems to go better with the later scientific explanation, and not the initial historical context. This information was pertinent to the discussion of heterotrophs, and I believe was a positive addition to the article.
