Copying references

Hi. If you click you the Edit button in your sandbox before you copy the text, the references should copy over properly. Let me know if you run into any problems with that. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 15:57, 25 April 2018 (UTC)

I added {{main|Parasitoid_wasp#Evolution_and_taxonomy}} which produces a link like this:

Main article: Parasitoid_wasp § Evolution_and_taxonomy

Add a couple sentences so that readers can get some of the main points in your article, and they can click through for more details. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 17:14, 25 April 2018 (UTC)

Singular and plurals

In articles on organisms the encyclopaedic convention is to regard the species as a singular noun as in "Z. percontatoria like several parasitoids, are host specific ...." should rather be "Z. percontatoria in common with several other parasitoids, is host specific.

Thank you for letting me know and I have fixed the errors I believe. I appreciate the feedback! Geislergs (talk) 17:30, 25 April 2018 (UTC)

Additional feedback

It looks pretty good, but more links to other articles might be helpful. Topics and terms that are likely to be unfamiliar to the average reader should be linked the first time they appear in the article. That way, people can learn more about topics and terms they aren't familiar with. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 15:32, 30 April 2018 (UTC)
