Some notes on where articles came from. A list of articles that got nontrivial improvements as a direct result of my discovering a bad or missing article, and that I would never have thought to work on otherwise.


 * Found Acidilobus aceticus tagged as needing an expert. First version isn't even an article - it's a request for an article - and misidentifies this archaeon as a yeast.
 * Acidilobus aceticus, Acidilobus saccharovorans, Thermoacidophile, Galdieria sulphuraria, floridean starch
 * Found profenofos in the speedy queue. Unsourced, poor English.
 * Profenofos, chlorfenvinfos
 * Murine polyomavirus was a redirect mistakenly brought to AfD. I moved it to RfD, then someone commented that the best solution would be to just write the article.
 * Murine polyomavirus, hamster polyomavirus, polyomaviridae, major capsid protein VP1, KI polyomavirus, WU polyomavirus
 * Strangeways Research Laboratory was my own redlink from a scientist bio, IIRC.
 * Strangeways Research Laboratory, Thomas Strangeways, Honor Fell, Frederick Gordon Spear, John T. Dingle
 * Someone came to my talk page to mention that a paper about ocelloids was getting some press, but our articles were crap.
 * Ocelloid, Warnowiaceae, Polykrikaceae, Gymnodiniales, nematocyst (dinoflagellate), piston (subcellular structure), Erythropsidinium
 * Found bad student editing at EnvZ/OmpR two-component system
 * EnvZ/OmpR two-component system, Response regulator, two-component regulatory system, histidine phosphotransfer domain
 * Found bad student editing at Kappa bungarotoxin
 * Kappa bungarotoxin (plus title cleanup of the others in the family)
 * Pulled YqeY protein domain from the "needs an expert" list, somehow got to ZinT from there
 * ZnuABC, regulon, ferric uptake regulator family, zinc uptake regulator, master regulator, ZinT protein domain, YqeY protein domain
 * Found while clearing out inappropriate citations to the Journal of Young Investigators
 * Cryptophycin, Dysidea arenaria
 * Found poribacteria in the speedy queue as a blatant copyvio, rewrote after deletion
 * Poribacteria, Gemmata obscuriglobus
