Evaluate the drafted changes
Lead:

Your lead has been updated to reflect the new material that has been added by your team. It also includes a brief description of your article. The only critique I have of your lead is the sentence "...when an organism in an embryonic or larval stage can alter its phenotype..." which could be misleading for a new reader. If someone was just hearing about developmental plasticity, they might assume that the organism in the embryonic/larval stage is consciously altering its phenotype. I should mention, this is me reaching and I really enjoy your team's lead!

Content:

Your content is very detailed and has a lot of information. Cannot really find any problem with it at all, if anything, I am honestly impressed!

Tone and balance:

I think the tone and balance in your article is neutral and informative. I genuinely feel as though I am reading material straight from a textbook. There doesn't appear to be information that is over/under represented.

Organization:

Based on what is available on both the draft and the wikipedia page, the organization if clear, concise, and follows a pattern. I understand your team was assigned a page that doesn't have much information so there isn't enough to evaluate.

Sources and References:

Although the material in your article is incredible, there is a lack of sources and citations to support it. The sources included are good sources, but there aren't enough sources/in-text citations that would make a reader feel comfortable using it yet. I understand this is just the draft and you probably already made plans to add sources.

Images and Media:

There doesn't appear to be any images/media yet. Personally, I think an image of a leaf on the same tree but given different amount of sunlight would be a good image! Just an idea though!

Overall:

Your wikipedia page is quite impressive and your progress is impressive! My strongest recommendation is just added sources/in-text citations. You guys are killing it, good job!
