Review (the newfangled structure seems not to be present here):   Date, size, hook fact ok. No copyvio found after a few Google spot checks, no structural, editorial or neutrality/stability problems. Would recommend the non-blurred File:2010-12-04 Entoloma bloxamii 2 60253.jpg from the article instead, and the image lacks a caption.   Frankly not a very gripping hook, but I suppose most mushrooms are rather boring and this one seems to be no exception. Good sourcing, except for:   the first reference link, [1], is broken or currently dead and should be checked again.  Sandstein  16:14, 31 July 2011 (UTC)Reply
(alt 1) "... that the fungus Bloxam's entoloma was named after an English clergyman?". The first ref was taken on good faith from the source of the donated text, ARKive; see Wikipedia:GLAM/ARKive. Andy Mabbett (User:Pigsonthewing); Andy's talk; Andy's edits 17:22, 31 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

  What's the word on the link? I tried and it won't work either. Image doesn't seem particularly interesting at 100px. Crisco 1492 (talk) 03:47, 13 August 2011 (UTC)Reply
Oops, forgot about this one. I can find another. rejigged refs and removed deadlink. There are some alternative images. I just liked this one as it is blue. Casliber (talk · contribs) 05:31, 13 August 2011 (UTC)Reply
  Good to go. It is a nice image, but 100px doesn't do it justice. Crisco 1492 (talk) 05:56, 13 August 2011 (UTC)Reply
