Lead Feedback:
My peer worked on the Growth Patterns section of the Wikipedia Page. The group did add some ecological updates to the lead section regarding the Hawaiian gold coral. The Lead section does provide a general overview of what will be discussed on the Wikipedia page for this deep sea coral: Habitat, Ecological Role, Growing Patterns, etc. The lead section is not too long or short and briefly contains a sentence or two pertaining to the characteristics and significance of Hawaiian gold corals in the deep sea. I would recommend that the group check to see if they have spelled the scientific name for the octocoral-associated zoanthid correctly as the current link states that this page does not exist.

Content Feedback:
The content that has been added is relevant to the topic. The group has added some information to each section on the Wikipedia Page. With respect to the work of my peer that I am editing, she stated in the Google Spreadsheet that she was focused on the Growing Patterns section and making some copyedits as well. I appreciated her addition of the fact that Hawaiian gold corals have characteristically slow growth rates. I do believe that a couple more sentences could be added to this section. I feel that most readers would be curious about the reason for the variation in maturation process from centuries to millennia between these deep sea organisms.

Tone and Balance Feedback:
The content added seems to have a neutral tone. This group member has added a numerical fact to the Growth Patterns section. This Wikipedia Page seems to be objective in the communication of information pertaining to the Hawaiian gold coral. This Wikipedia Page describes some characteristics of the deep sea corals themselves as well as features of their habitats.

Sources and References Feedback:
The new content in my peer's section contains in-text citations. Reference 7 comes from a fairly recent (2019) source. Reference 4 is neither very old or recent. The first statement pertaining to the growth rate of the Hawaiian gold corals reflects what Reference 4 says. Reference 4 and Reference 7 reflect the available literature on the topic. The links to these two references both work.

Organization Feedback:
The content added is easy to read. The content added is also well-organized and located in the correct section on the Wikipedia page. The sentence structure is very clear and concise.
