I may as well make it a triple! Happy to offer some comments. Josh Milburn (talk) 13:58, 17 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

"13 November, 1945" I don't think the comma's needed, but you should probably use American dates for an American biographhy

Kept the comma and changed to American mdy formatting. Esculenta (talk) 19:00, 18 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

"Effect of Effluents from a Zinc Factory on Lichens" I think PhD theses are meant to be italicised; they'll count as a "major work".

Done. Esculenta (talk) 19:00, 18 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

"monograph of Hypotrachyna" on, surely?

Fixed. Esculenta (talk) 19:00, 18 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

And, as with the other articles, I want to ask about the use of small caps.

Now replaced with small font. Esculenta (talk) 19:00, 18 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

No concern about the pictures (top picture's great) or sources. I'll dig a little deeper next time I look, but no real concerns. Josh Milburn (talk) 14:15, 17 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

And please check my edits! Josh Milburn (talk) 14:16, 17 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The copyedits look fine, thanks. I'm not sure the reason for the ref=none additions, could you explain? Should I do this in other articles as well? Esculenta (talk) 19:00, 18 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

It's very boring, and is something to do with editing scripts. There was a technical change a few months ago, so now all uses of certain citation templates are ready for use with {{sfn}} -- but what that means when they're not used with that template, error messages pop up (to some editors -- I forget why we see them). Once, we had to add ref=harv if we wanted to use the sfn template, but now that they are "harv" refs by default, we need to add ref=none if we're not using the sfn template to avoid the errors. Honestly, I wouldn't worry about it! Josh Milburn (talk) 20:30, 21 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, I can't see anything else to cause concern. Promoting now. Josh Milburn (talk) 19:28, 26 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
