Evaluate the drafted changes
(Compose a detailed peer review here, considering each of the key aspects listed above if it is relevant. Consider the guiding questions, and check out the examples of what feedback looks like.)

Lead: Add a lead paragraph to summarize the articles sections and to add some more background information about Cranchia Scabra before jumping right into the Tubercles adaptations. For example, maybe add a little more to the introductory sentence besides just stating it is a glass squid? For example, can list the type of environment it belongs in, its typical geographic ocean region, etc.

Content: I think that there is still some content to add about Cranchia Scabra. For example, I think it would be helpful to learn about the environments in which they are found ( geographical location, oceanic depth, habitat). I see that you mention a little bit about the environment in the growth paragraph, but I think you can expand on this in the introduction as well. There could also be more content on their diet, feeding behaviours, reproduction, role in environment, etc.

Tone and Balance: In terms of tone and balance, your writing is neutral, which is great!

Sources & References: I noticed that the sources are pretty old ( all from 1960s/ 1970’s). Are there any more recent findings/ sources that you can refer to? Also, you repeated a reference twice. I think you only need to list each reference once. The links that I clicked on did lead me to the research papers!

Organization: I am glad that you broke up the content into different sections, which makes it easier to read/ understand. The writing itself flows well, is concise, and appears free of spelling errors. There are a few grammatical changes where I think you need a comma. For example, in the sentence "by their complex tubercles, which are projections" I added commas before the word "which". I also think you can separate this sentence into 2 sentences as such: "Statoliths are calcareous structures found in cephalopods that detect body accelerations throughout movement. There are two growth zones within Cranchia scabra statolith microstructures."

Media: Add another photo of the glass squid. The photo on the Wiki page resembles a cartoon. I think it would be helpful to see a real-world photo of the glass squid because it is so cool looking!

Overall impressions:  Your edits added a lot of good content about Cranchia Scabra compared to what is currently on the main Wiki Page! Also, it was very helpful that you broke the content into different paragraphs with titles for better organization. This helped break up dense information into different sections, which makes the information easier to follow.
