- Comment: I'm going to be working on this article for a few more days, but since I'm doing the Wikipedia:WikiCup this year I want to get this nomination in as soon as possible. For the glory of Plantipedia!

Overall: For the glory of Plantipedia! Indeed this article is a fun easy to understand science article. The idea that plants move away from light is kind of counter intuitive which makes this fun. The copyvios tool is down right now but I will update the plagiarism section of the review once it's back up, but a quick Google and Google Scholar search didn't pick anything up. Update, copyvio is back up and as predicted plagiarism free! Dr vulpes (Talk) 06:05, 7 January 2024 (UTC)
