Black coral

Hello, I've listed this article for peer review. I want to eventually get it up to GA-class (as I think it has the potential to be GA), but that would be a first for me, so I honestly don't know exactly what to do to improve the article. Anything would be helpful, especially things like nit-picking the citations or style.

Thank you very much. Aven 20:04, 24 October 2019 (UTC)

• I added a bunch of links and other general fixes. The taxonomers and dates for the listed genera Cupressopathes, Hydradendrium, Myriopathes, Plumapathes, and Tanacetipathes are still needed. --Nessie (talk) 15:06, 25 October 2019 (UTC)

• Done. Anything else? -Aven13

OK, but who is Carter?

Also might be good to cite the original Milne-Edwards & Haime paper somewhere.--Nessie (talk) 17:39, 30 October 2019 (UTC)

• Thanks for hard work on the article! I think it's close to GA. The lede now has one sentence about climate change and ocean acidification, but the rest of the article doesn't contain any information about it. As with moderate to high warming scenarios, coral reef is expected to disappear almost completely (see for instance IPCC SR15 report), I think this information is vital. Furthermore, the source given doesn't talk about black coral in specific. Femke Nijsse (talk) 13:09, 4 November 2019 (UTC)

Thanks for the additional section. One of the phrases might be too much jargon, "hanging underwater currents", as I don't understand it. Femke Nijsse (talk) 12:28, 5 November 2019 (UTC)

Sorry, meant to say "changing". Anything else? (thank you for helping me with this by the way.)

I've added two citation needed tags and did some ce. Can't think of anything else. Femke Nijsse (talk) 14:38, 5 November 2019 (UTC)

• This lede sentence: "Though it has historically been used by pacific peoples as a medical treatment and in rituals, its only current use is making jewelry" needs a more modern source (now 1922). Femke Nijsse (talk) 13:18, 4 November 2019 (UTC)
