- Hi, a while since I GA reviewed a mushroom, so here goes.. FunkMonk (talk) 19:35, 26 June 2016 (UTC)
- Not sure if this is within "the Pope is Catholic" territory, but I doubt Linnaeus is labelled the "father of taxonomy" in his own work, which is the only one cited after the sentence?
- meh...not important so removed it Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 04:22, 27 June 2016 (UTC)
- "However, Kuntze's revisionary programme was not accepted by the majority of botanists." Mycologists?
- broadened it to biologists Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 04:22, 27 June 2016 (UTC)
- You mention the authors and dates of all revisions except for the ones based on genetics, any reason?
- You mean, like this? No reason....fixedCas Liber (talk · contribs) 11:16, 27 June 2016 (UTC)
- All changes look good. FunkMonk (talk) 18:00, 27 June 2016 (UTC)

- "or rarely an ixocutis a layer of gelatinized hyphae" Comma needed?
- added it Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 08:28, 1 July 2016 (UTC)
- "Fruit bodies of spp. hercynicus" Why not just say C. v. hercynicus? I doubt most readers know what spp. means...
- duly tweaked Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 08:28, 1 July 2016 (UTC)
- Since the other subspecies does not seem to be recognised today (or am I missing something), is it appropriate to refer to it as such?
- the key is in the "limited" - Harrower has provisionally posited there is no difference but there was only limited sampling, so is cautious. i.e. in hte article "suggests" rather than "confirms" they are the same. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 08:28, 1 July 2016 (UTC)
- "Cortinarius violaceus forms mycorrhizal associations several species of tree." With?
- added it Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 08:28, 1 July 2016 (UTC)
- "generally in more alkaline soils and long with mosses" What is meant by long? Along?
- yes/tweaked Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 08:28, 1 July 2016 (UTC)
- "Its similarity to some other (inedible or toxic) webcaps" Like which?
- there are over 3000 species and much confusion - there are a bunch of species with some purple that you wouldn't eat (Cortinarius traganus being one). I need a source that directly compares it with some other species. Will double check. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 08:35, 1 July 2016 (UTC)
- "It is an iron(III)" Space needed?
- added it Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 08:35, 1 July 2016 (UTC)
- "Cortinarius violaceus extract demonstrated an inhibitory" Why past tense when the former sentences are present?
- twaeked it Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 08:35, 1 July 2016 (UTC)
- "has a subtle taste" Only stated as such in the intro.
- a euphemism for bland/tasteless I suspect.
Will reread sourcesCan't find anything more than the fact that there is a consensus they are not especially tasty. Have taken it out of the lead as the could describe a great many mushrooms.... Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 08:35, 1 July 2016 (UTC)
- a euphemism for bland/tasteless I suspect.
Apologies for being mostly absent in this review; I'm pretty swamped at the moment... Josh Milburn (talk) 10:06, 1 July 2016 (UTC)
- no dramas. WP shouldn't interfere with RL chores.. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 11:58, 1 July 2016 (UTC)
- The changes look good. You expressed after a few comments that you want to double-check some sources, want more time for that? FunkMonk (talk) 09:08, 3 July 2016 (UTC)
- no - I can't find any other sources with any more detail on taste, or any other specific taxa it might be confused with.. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 09:41, 3 July 2016 (UTC)
- Alright then, so will pass! FunkMonk (talk) 09:46, 3 July 2016 (UTC)
