Hello! I noticed your recent run of edits to [[Anoxygenic photosynthesis]]. I'm glad to see someone finally take a stab at improving that article! It has languished in it's somewhat bizarre and barely-comprehensible state for a long time. Since you appear to be someone who knows a thing or two about anoxygenic photosynthesis, if you could find some references to back up some of the material in the article, it would be a huge help to anyone reading or trying to improve the article in the future. The reference formatting can be a bit of a hassle if you're not used to it, but if you just follow the template of some of the other templated references on that article or other articles, it should be fairly painless. Alternatively, if you just dump links to references on the talk page, I or someone else would be happy to format them as citations correctly. Again, I'm glad to see someone taking an interest in that article. We could always use more eyes and hands on the microbiology and biochemistry articles! Happy editing!

I also took a crack at improving it. I know that you said that your expertise is more in line with the opsin-type reactions, but your review of my modifications would be appreciated. [[User:Pagelm|Pagelm]] ([[User talk:Pagelm|talk]]) 18:39, 10 August 2016 (UTC) |
