Garret Hoff's Peer Review

Hi Emma!

I hope you are having a great Monday! I looked over your article and here are my main thoughts:

1. I think your overview is pretty straightforward and solid. The one thing I would recommend is that you tend use the construction "evolve a _____" which I feel can be easily confusing. I had go back and read it a second time to figure that out. I would change it and elaborate on what exactly you mean by evolving to the more complex thing.

2. I think you need to do a lot more on the original paper. What year did the paper come out? How did the professors decide to engage in this subject? How did they decide that this theory was viable? Those are some of the questions I think you should address. Your whole article does feel a little on the short side and I think that is because this section is not nearly as robust as it needs to be.

3. I think the Further research section is solid. Since I am supposed to be nitpicking it would be nice if the transition from talking about primates to anurans was a bit less abrupt.

All in all solid job! I definitely think you could expand a little bit more and flesh things about but a strong start! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Thedefinitivegeesh (talk • contribs) 19:49, 20 November 2018 (UTC)
