Looking at your sandbox draft, your sources seem to be very reliable and discuss relevant information about the topic. I saw a few places in the article where citations are needed, but it looks like you all are on the way to getting some new sources into the article!

I also think the article seems neutral and free of biases.

In the opening paragraphs, maybe a bit more information about specifics of ideal salt and light concentrations for the species to thrive would be helpful. I think that the physical description of the archaea is very well developed.

Potentially adding in info about the carbon and energy needs of the species could be a good way to strengthen the article. Also, oxygen requirements of the species.

A caption for the photograph with the scientific classification could be helpful to better understand what the photograph is showing.

Overall, I think your article is headed in the right direction and I'm excited to see where you guys take it!
