Article Grading: The following comments were left by the quality and importance raters: (edit · refresh) This article needs: headers to divide it up into appropriate sections (an obvious one that comes to mind is "Superfamilies" or "Diversity") a taxobox (see Wikipedia:WikiProject Arthropods/Style suggestions if necessary) references, and if necessary external links. IronC hris \| (talk) 04:19, 18 November 2006 (UTC) I disagree. The article is so short that no subdivision into sections is necessary. A taxobox would suggest that parasitic wasps form a taxon. They don't. It is a polyphyletic group of more or less related insects that share a similar ecology. References and links would, however, be helpful. --Stemonitis 10:04, 21 November 2006 (UTC) Well, a taxobox to the Apocrita level would work, wouldn't it? And for the rest, just "see text". What I meant by sections was essentially "History of the term" and "Superfamilies" (and then external links and references if appropriate), just to give it some structure, so that readers can see at a glance where the article is going. There is no clear separation between the introduction and the body. It's a pain to read an article with no structure or obvious purpose, even if it is short like this one.
