User talk:Nhennum/Chirodropidae

In the sentences, you stated that there are specific characters to distinguish them apart and you begin to focus on them being branch and more specifically having their own tentacles; however, I think you should add more because you said "characters" or change it to "specific character" because I feel as if it all got roped into one character. Also, the composition changing based on body size; I feel like this needs more detail like how the composition changes. For example, the article at this website, https://www.deepdyve.com/lp/springer-journals/nematocyst-composition-of-the-cubomedusan-chiropsalmus-quadrigatus-ElgUjlln03, states that the nematocysts change, but they also change based on the stage in life they are.

I think you have a pretty good start on your article. I would suggest adding hyperlinks to other Wikipedia articles about Cnidaria, Cubozoa, Carybdeidae, and nematocyst if you can. You could also talk about the overall distribution of these jellyfish. Another option is talking about their habitat. I also suggest looking at the ecological impacts of Chirodropidae if there are find any articles about it. You could also mention how many species are in the Chirodropidae family. Also, go into more detail about the body plan and the overall morphology. SimsBiologist45 ([User talk:SimsBiologist45|talk]]) 18:48, 19 October 2021 (UTC) MS

Dr. White's critique of your first draft
'''Chirodropidae is a family of box jellyfish in the phylum Cnidaria and the class Cubozoa[1]. [This is already in the article]''' Within the family of Chirodropidae, there are specific characters that allow someone to distinguish between Chirodropidae and the family Carybdeidae. These characteristics include branched pedalia. Specifically, here each branch houses its own individual tentacle [2]. In addition, nematocyst composition can vary among these individuals within this family based on body size.[3]

'''Overall you did a great job. You added a lot of good information to the article, but don’t rewrite it – add it to it. The additions at the beginning are redundant. Nice addition of an image and GREAT job with in text citations. You should also add links to other Wikipedia pages. It would be good to clarify the characteristics that you are adding. Your peer reviews have a few good suggestions as well.''' Whiteamphipod (talk) 16:20, 22 October 2021 (UTC)
