A comprehensive and balanced biography that covers all the most relevant parts of Burnet's career. --Peta 01:40, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Support well-written and thorough article on an interesting figure in the history of biology. No more nitpicks that I can find. Opabinia regalis 01:30, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment. Looks very good. I would suggest a different formating for the two indented quotes in "Immunology" though (maybe Template:Cquote). Sloan21 00:41, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

 * Support; a couple minor things though:
 * "Burnet wrote widely on the topic of human biology after his retirement; some of his ideas were ahead of their time, and others were disputed by the scientific community." Doesn't "being ahead of their time" mean that they aren't accepted? Thus, this sentence is equivalent to "Burnet wrote widely on the topic of human biology after his retirement; some of his ideas were not accepted, and others were disputed by the scientific community."  Seems redundant to me, and suggests that none of his ideas were accepted (though perhaps this is intended&mdash;if so, make it explicit).
 * I'm having difficulty with the following sentence, "In 1966 Boyer Lecture on human biology, provided a conceptual framework for sustainable development, 21 years later the definition provided by the Brundtland Commission was almost identical." Perhaps the following is meant: "In the 1966 Boyer Lecture on human biology, he provided a conceptual framework for sustainable development; 21 years later the definition provided by the Brundtland Commission was almost identical."
 * Excellent work! --Spangineeres (háblame)  14:35, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

 * Support (but I declare a contribution in copy-editing part of it a while ago). I'll run over it again this weekend. Good work. Tony 03:10, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
