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.)


 * Is everything in the article relevant to the article topic? Is there anything that distracted you?
 * The new portion you added that combines species diversity with productivity is really great. I think it's a natural extension of the topic and an extremely important relationship.
 * Is the article neutral? Are there any claims, or frames, that appear heavily biased toward a particular position?
 * The claims were neutral.
 * Are there viewpoints that are overrepresented, or underrepresented?
 * I think you have some room to go a bit more into how human activity impacts NPP and not just that it does. The section felt like a big statement with very little support.
 * Check the citations. Do the links work? Does the source support the claims in the article?
 * Not all citations have been "cleaned up". Some still have missing sections. If you need help getting that figure out, let me know. It took me some tinkering to get my citations all figure out. Some of your articles are a bit dated. I wonder if you might be able to find something a bit more current?
 * Is each fact supported by an appropriate, reliable reference? Where does the information come from? Are these neutral sources? If biased, is that bias noted?
 * The publishers of your articles all look credible.
 * Is any information out of date? Is anything missing that should be added?
 * A couple of sources are a bit older. I would suggest trying to find something more current.
 * Has the content added improved the overall quality of the article?
 * I believe that what you've added really helps make your topic more big picture. Productivity is a major part of an environment's ability to maintain species and it is an interesting idea that increased biodiversity may be able to support increased productivity. I would've loved even more detail.
 * What are the strengths of the content added?
 * The writing style of your additions is extremely reader friendly and I believe that anyone accessing your page would be able to follow along and understand what you've added. I enjoy that what you've added helps bridge this concept with others.
 * How can the content added be improved?
 * I believe that you can add even more without much effort here. Especially in the area where you bring up that increased biodiversity may lead to a more highly productive species. Maybe just explain what may make one species more productive than another so that readers without an ecology background can keep up. I also would love to see a touch more when it comes to anthropogenic impacts on productivity.
