Asplenium tutwilerae

Created/expanded by Choess (talk). Self nom at 02:34, 30 June 2012 (UTC)

  • Article length and date ok, all hooks of acceptable length. No problems with close paraphrasing. Original hook can't be used yet, as the article does not explicitly say that Julia Tutwiler was a prison reformer. ALT1 confirmed, but the phrase "classified with" might be confusing; the average reader will probably not know that means "was considered the same species as". ALT2 confirmed. Of these three, I think the original hook is the most interesting. As a perhaps more accessible version of ALT1, how about:
ALT3: ... that although discovered in 1873, Tutwiler's spleenwort was not considered a distinct species until 2007?

or maybe

ALT4: ... that, originally discovered in 1873, Tutwiler's spleenwort became one of the world's rarest ferns in 2007?
this last one leaves some mystery as to why it all of a sudden became so rare. Sasata (talk) 06:48, 3 July 2012 (UTC)
I've added a source to the article for Tutwiler's occupations, so the original hook should now be OK. Choess (talk) 00:54, 4 July 2012 (UTC)
