A fact from Fish allergy appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 4 January 2021 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that people with fish allergy are unlikely to be allergic to shellfish, because fish and shellfish do not have the same allergenic protein?

Creation by copying Egg allergy

The draft was created by copying Egg allergy verbatim, with references. Egg allergy is a Good Article, raised to that status by me, November 2017. That article was created in 2006, was approx. 13,000 bytes when the GA review started, enlarged to 40,000 bytes at time GA approved, to 55,000 bytes as of July 2020. As part of the process of creating the draft of fish allergy, all egg-specific text was deleted and egg references replaced by references specific to fish allergy.

Thanks for creating this page, David notMD. In the context of copyright, I'll add that about 60% of the current content at Egg allergy was written by you. WhatamIdoing (talk) 20:14, 29 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Relatively stable since creation in July 2020, so nominating for Good Article status (closely modeled after Egg allergy, which I raised to GA in 2017). Also raised Milk allergy to GA, in 2018. David notMD (talk) 03:13, 12 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Uncoiled Anisakis nematode (approx. two centimeters) in raw salmon

... that a fish allergy reaction may actually be an allergy to proteins from Anisakis (pictured), a parasite found in salt-water fish, anadromous fish and squid? Source: The food-borne parasite Anisakis is a genus of nematodes known to infect salt-water fish and fish that travel from oceans to rivers to breed; also squid (refs 7, 16-19)
- ALT1:... that people with fish allergy are unlikely to be allergic to shellfish, because fish and shellfish do not have the same allergenic protein? Source: there is no cross-reactivity between fish and shellfish allergy (refs 12-14)

This article is a newly promoted GA and meets the newness and length criteria. The image is suitably licensed, the hook facts are cited inline and either hook could be used. The article is neutral and I detected no copyright issues. A QPQ has been done. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 09:40, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
