Very nice article! We'll start in a couple days... I want to read him well, and don't be surprised if I throw in a ce or wikt here or there if I see a need ;) Rcej (Robert) - talk 04:53, 25 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much for the review- I'm gonna be less active than usual in the coming days, but I should still be about and this will be one of my top priorities :) J Milburn (talk) 11:05, 25 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You've done a fine job with this article! Here is the stuff we need to fiddle with:

  • In Taxonomy and naming --
  • Is the belief that Judas hung himself on an elder tree allegorical, folklore or stronger? Odd question, but its an unusual consideration in naming.
  • Folklore. This is a name that has existed for centuries; I'm imagining it comes from ordinary people who would go and pick them/see them in the woods. Is this not clear in the article?
  • Did Joseph Schröter make the initial specimen collection? Where/when?
  • There won't have been an initial specimen collection as such, in the same way there wouldn't be for a sparrow. I could look into that if you think it's necessary- the taxonomy section does need further development (I intend to take the article to FAC eventually).

  • What was the initial generic placement? With this large a tally of synonyms, had not a quite cumbersome generic shuffle taken place? We need more chronology and backstory regarding the taxonomic aspects. :)
  • In Edibility --
  • This segment reads subjective: "The soft, jelly-like texture of A. auricula-judae is favoured in China, where both the taste and the feel in the mouth are important considerations in food. There is also little distinction between food and medicine in China;"...
  • Plz complete the sentence "The mushroom has also been exported from Nepal for culinary use; the only non-morel species that has." (don't fret, I've done that a lot too... heh!)
  • The sentence "During the reign of the dynasty, according to Li Shih-chen's Pen Tsao Kang Mu, Tang Ying-chuan said "put the steamed bran on logs, cover with straw, Wood Ear will grow"." lol... did Tang say that every day? ;-)
  • In Folk medicine, this sentence is sort of stating the obvious: "The 16th century herbalist John Gerard, writing in 1597, recommended A. auricula-judae as having a very specific use, as opposed to other fungi, which were used more generally." Maybe ce or toss it like a salad? ;)
