IGFBP3
Hi! Thanks for your high quality contributions to the IGFBP3 article. Concering the lead sentence in Gene Wiki articles, as discussed here and here, we have tried to make clear that these articles are not only about the human gene/protein, but also orthologs that exist in other species. The wording that was reached through consensus is perhaps a little awkward, but it is both accurate and concise: The "that" in the above sentence is non-limiting implying that the protein (and gene) exists in other species besides human.
 *  is a protein that in humans is encoded by the  gene.

Per first sentence content, the lead sentence should be a short declarative statement that makes clear what the subject is about (the scope of the article is about the IGFBP3 gene/protein) and why it is important (there is a human ortholog). It is also important that the lead sentence be kept dead simple so that it can be understood by anyone.

Also it is good practice to included an edit summary, especially when you are reverting another editors edit. Thanks. Boghog (talk) 12:47, 5 December 2014 (UTC)
