Talk:Forensic entomology

This article describes Forensic Entomology very well as we have learned in class. It describes the three areas concerned with Forensic Entomology. It also goes into great detail of the history of this subject. And, it provides many examples. I think this is a great article. Good job!!

I think that several parts of the article, including the CSI effect section as well as the movies section would go well in the CSI Effect page. The 19th century section would do well to go in History of Entomology entogirl88 (talk) 04:44, 10 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I would have to agree with Crosenbalm. Forensic entomology is too broad of a subject to be limited to law enforcement. A large forensic entomology umbrella group is a possibility.Quatrevingtsix (talk) 04:04, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Forensic Entomology is comprised of three different entities: Urban Entomology, Stored Product Entomology, and Medicocriminal Entomology. We feel that each of these categories contain enough information to be regarded as seperate subjects. We feel it would be disrespectful to merge this category, as it would take away from the individuality of the topic.

The first few paragraphs of the article were very interesting; however, maybe you could include some headers to organize it a bit. The rest of the article was great and seems very well researched.Hurricane979 (talk) 16:53, 28 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I feel that this article dicusses a unique topic, that of the Forensic Entomologists themselves. In my opinion, credit should be given to the men and women who perform the job. There is sufficient information for an article that dicusses them exclusively, as a separate entitity from the general topic forensic entomology. Forensic entomologists also perform unique work in different fields of forensic entomology as well. Garza j e (talk) 00:36, 31 March 2008 (UTC)garza_j_e (talk)[reply]

This article is a good broad summary of the history of entomology. But, I didn't see anything about the way Megning developed the use of different levels of seres in relation to exposed versus buried bodies. You may want to research that topic and insert a paragraph about it. Austinh37 (talk) 20:13, 11 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The sections previously in the article Forensic entomology and society have been merged into this article because of their relation to the history of Forensic entmology as a science, which was also redirected here and because this article does an excellent and thorough job of explaining the history of forensic entomology. This article does need some grammatical and stylistic editing. Consider putting this article up for a peer review for stylistic changes.entogirl88 (talk) 14:46, 14 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Updates

That list at the bottom is simply a copy and paste of the list of articles from Wikipedia:School_and_university_projects/ENTO_431, the writing assignment. Incorporate these into the article instead of leaving them in the external links category; they are not external links. Also, expand the list of forensically important insects to include all the insects mentioned in the articles list, and scour Wikipedia for more insects to which you can link.

Just an idea, since forensic entomology is such a broad field and we have tons of information on it. Maybe your group could provide a link to the rest of our group's pages. That way when someone is looking up forensic entomology, they can easily navigate to these other pages. This would not only help readers, but it would make your article look a lot more professional. You could possibly title the section "related links". Hope that you will find this helpful! Lindseyjean11 (talk) 16:17, 10 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect from History of forensic entomology

I redirected History of forensic entomology here as most of the content(except the case studies) has been transfered here. To access the case studies, click here.--Dodo bird (talk) 08:47, 9 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
