Wikipedia:WikiProject Molecular and Cellular Biology/Peer review

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The peer review of the Molecular and Cellular Biology WikiProject is a place to request review of any MCB-related articles. The goal of this project feature is to improve articles by asking other editors for suggestions on articles that they might not otherwise contribute to.

The reviews are conducted by fellow editors, usually members of the Molecular and Cellular WikiProject.

[edit] Instructions

[edit] Requesting a review

  1. Add peer-review=yes to the {{Wikiproject MCB}} project banner at the top of the article's talk page (see the project banner for more details on the exact syntax).
  2. From there, click on the "request has been made" link that appears in the template. This will open a page to discuss the review of your article.
  3. Place ===[[Name of nominated article]]=== at the top.
  4. Below it, write your reason for nominating the article and sign by using four tildes (~~~~).
  5. Add {{WikiProject Molecular and Cellular Biology/Peer review/Peer review/Name of nominated article}} at the top of the list of requests on this page.

[edit] Responding to a request

Everyone is encouraged to comment on any request listed here. To comment on an article, please add a new section (using ====[[User:Your name|Your name]]====) for your comments, in order to keep multiple responses legible.

[edit] Archiving

Reviews should be archived after they have been inactive for some time, or when the article is nominated as a featured article candidate. To archive a review:

  1. Replace peer-review=yes with old-peer-review=yes in the {{Wikiproject MCB}} project banner template at the top of the article's talk page
  2. Move {{WikiProject Molecular and Cellular Biology/Peer review/Name of nominated article}} from this page to the current archive page.

[edit] Requests

[edit] Clone (cell biology)

I'd like the article reviewed to gauge to what degree the articles meets the Wikipedia article. Right now its size is over that of a stub. The concept being dealt with is important one vis-a-vis multicellular organisms and there could be many more examples of clonal expansion. Also, review by some one not related to the field would be really nice to estimate the article's intelligibility.

Regards.

[edit] Polyclonal response

This article is already on the general peer review list. But, there were not many responses. It has undergone many changes since then, and moreover, the concepts being dealt with are intrinsically very complex and difficult to understand. So, I wanted to get it peer reviewed here, too.

Regards.

[edit] DNA vaccination

I'd like to get this article to Featured Article status. Any help or peer reviews would be appreciated. I think it fills all the FA requirements except for images and stability - but stability cannot be assessed at present because the article is still new. Biochemza 22:21, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Aryl_hydrocarbon_receptor

Waiting to see how it is Demantos 14:04, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Serpin

I'd like to get this article added to the MCB article worklist - I've added the appropriate tags (which should automatically achieve this), however, it does not seem to be included. Further, it would be great to have some feedback on the article in regards to completness, quality etc and also any reccomendations for changes that would be needed to move it towards FA status.

Cheers

[edit] Mitosis

I just found that this article wasn't on our work list yet. It's of a good quality, but I was unsure whether to grade it as a B or an A article according to our article class guidelines. Anybody have any opinions? – ClockworkSoul 16:25, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

I just added some plant-specific information to the article. Plant mitosis includes an additional phase: Preprophase. Should this be a separate paragraph? Right now I've included it at the bottom of the prophase section. - tameeria 01:44, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
