Except for a couple of sentences in the lead, this article is all about plant-plant communication. Plant communication is a much broader topic encompassing communication with other organisms (herbivores, pollinators, rhizobia, etc) which are not covered here.

The lead is mostly about herbivore-induced VOCs, but the article also discusses other forms of plant-plant communication. Ethan Bass ( talk) 13:50, 20 October 2020 (UTC)
This article places an undue emphasis on the results from a few studies (e.g. Runyon et al 2006, Zebelo et al 2012 and Falik et al 2011). While these may be important articles in the field, the article would benefit from consultation with more secondary sources (i.e. review articles) for additional context. There are a number of recent review papers on this topic. For example: https://www.annualreviews.org/doi/abs/10.1146/annurev-ecolsys-010421-020045 Ethan Bass ( talk) 15:39, 23 October 2020 (UTC)
I don't think the section on electrical signaling really fits with the article, since it is discussing a mechanism of communication between cells of an individual plant, whereas the rest of the article is about mechanisms of inter-organismal communication.

After leaving some markers on related pages to attract attention to this incomplete page, I read the article plant cognition and found that the categories there overlap this one and the information contained here could easily fit within one section of that page without bloating it. Furthermore, it is highly likely that our readers would be looking for the info on this page if they were visiting the plant cognition page. I propose leaving a redirect here to Plant cognition. I will boldly take this action (most likely to the chagrin of experts on the subject) if this message is not answered within a reasonable period as this page does not have a lot of contributors.

I am not convinced this needs to be in the lead to this article. Maybe it could be nested in a section on definitions of communication and could explain how they define communication in phytosemiotics. I do research in this field and I can't really figure out what this phytosemiotics business is all about. 17:12, 23 October 2021 (UTC) beanstash ( talk) 17:12, 23 October 2021 (UTC)
