I've listed this article for peer review because…
My intention was to get this ready for GA status and I want to get a rough idea about how far away I am before I switch to working on Microbiome. It also seems like it might be sprawling away from me.

- I am not good at judging whether things are getting too big - I will leave that to others.
- First, you might want to take a look at the external links checker - it's indicating that some of the links are subscription-only (and/or are redirects, that may require checking), which should be noted with the appropriate template by the reference in question (if there isn't a PMC or similar alternative provided, of course!).
- There are a few statements that lack citations - generally at the ends of paragraphs, such as on "oligonucleotide frequencies" - admittedly, it's pretty obvious to someone in the field that such should work, but not to someone outside of it.
- Is anyone trying doing alignments of very similar sequences from within a metagenome dataset (as in, ones that might be from two strains of bacteria of the same "species", as iffy as that concept gets with bacteria...) and doing searches using that as a basis (HMMs or whatever)?
- How about looking to see proportional abundance of organisms (and changes in this, either "natural" or from biostimulation/bioaugmentation) - anyone working on that? The metatranscriptome comes close, admittedly, but it should be easier than trying to stabilize and capture RNAs...
- Specific examples like termites might be good in the biofuel discussion. (One of my old professors - Dr. Douglas Eveleigh at Rutgers' Cook College - works on this.)
- I've added a Main link to Bioremediation.
- I removed one of the See also links that was duplicated above, and suggest putting in a genomics link at the top and removing that from See also.
