Didn't know it was being hacked over at FAC, or I would have commented earlier. One bit of prose stumps me: "It is more or less uneven, somewhat round to irregular, 4 to 10 cm (1.6 to 3.9 in) wide and as a result of confluence often as much as 20 cm (7.9 in) wide."
Does the "more or less uneven" refer to the shape (i.e. circumference) or the surface? In either case it seems somewhat redundant... If I knew what this is intended to mean, I could find a better way to word it.
Still editing and I'm catching a few items that makes me wonder whether the FA reviewer read the article (i.e. amyloid is no longer a correct link). Circéus ( talk) 01:10, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
Oh, I was forgetting. It's something I seem to harp on constantly, and I apologize for it: the similar species section leaves one with the impression that only characters separating the species at hands are smell and taste, which seems either misleading (while giving the most... handy ones is certainly pertinent, if there are others, e.g. microscopical, characters more discriminating that are unmentioned, then there is a lack in the article) or incomplete (if no sound morpho/anatomical characters are known, then it should be stated!).

I just finished the article construction for Palaeoagaracites and moved it fom my userspace to the laive article! its aprox. 3900 characters, meeting the "dyk..." criteria, please check it over and see if it works. -- Kev min § 00:33, 12 October 2010 (UTC)

I completely understand why you are doing this. I fear the Cup is dead; there's a lot of bad feeling, and too many accusations flying around. I'm not sure I want to remain a judge, if I'm honest- I think I may stick it out until the end of this year and then bow out. I'll certainly give Lactarius volemus another look- I've not really been involved in the article since DYK! Jew's Ear is something I'd love to see hit FAC- I'm waiting for a quiet afternoon to look through the literature again, and a visit to the library may be in order. Fomes fomentarius will, after the taxonomy section is done, make a solid GAC- again, it's a well known fungus, so I reckon there'll be enough out there for a FAC eventually.

Civility Award | |
For nobly withdrawing from the 2010 Wikicup, I hereby award you this cup of tea. You deserve it. Smartse ( talk) 22:00, 17 October 2010 (UTC) |
I too just wanted to say that I am sorry that you hear that you have withdrawn from the WikiCup. The amount of work you produced was amazing in such a short time span, and I hope the craziness with the competition does not stop you from continuing to contribute in the future. Your work is very much appreciated! Remember ( talk) 13:08, 20 October 2010 (UTC)
It's great, thanks. I welcome and hope anyone improve/expand the article. Most People besides mycologists may not know the fungus, as its habitat is limited to a few Asian countries(according to the ja.wiki article). So if DYK picks that it must be new to most readers. I wish the hook would have chance of nomination.-- Sateros ( talk) 09:27, 18 October 2010 (UTC)
I read your expansion. It's incredibly nice and interesting. You must have pretty good sources (may be books) on fungi in general. Sorry for the picture. It was deleted due to copyright problem. I've been trying to get in touch with the author ... hopefully it would work.-- Sateros ( talk) 03:25, 21 October 2010 (UTC)
is liekly going to FAC soon...but as a huge article it would be great to deal with as much beforehand as possible. Sadalsuud has unearthed an amazing amount of material on it. I was hoping you weren't too familiar with stars so we might be able to minimise some unnecessary jargon etc. Cheers, Casliber ( talk · contribs) 20:13, 18 October 2010 (UTC)

Good morning Sasata, I have a question regarding the placement of the genus Sepedonium. I'm slowly attempting to work up articles on Mycetophagites and Entropezites but the placement of Mycetophagites is something I'm having trouble with. In Poinar & Buckley they say "M. atrebora appears to have had habits similar to members of the genus Sepedonium Link 1809 in the Hypocreaceae (Hypocreales)". Problem is the Hypocreales article says the group is disused and I cant locate much information on where Sepedonium and thus Mycetophagites are currently placed. -- Kev min § 20:56, 19 October 2010 (UTC)
Done. J Milburn ( talk) 00:15, 20 October 2010 (UTC)
Hi again! Sorry to be a bother, I was wondering where I should post requests for identification on images of fungi that I will be adding to wikicommons soon. I checked out WP Fungi but didnt see a specific area for image ID. should I just post to the project talk page? I hope the images will be good enough for ID and usage in articles, but I'm afraid some may be rather obscure and hard to identify. Here is the first image I have uploaded as an example. -- Kev min § 02:45, 20 October 2010 (UTC)
This is the best I can find, but you or I might be
told off for using it. The French sure do know how to eat though.

Hey Sasata, just found Termitomyces titanicus mentioned in Termitomyces as being the largest mushroom in the world at 1m in diameter (unsourced). If it is indeed correct, I thought it would make a pretty awesome DYK hook for you as the article is a single sentence at the moment. Smartse ( talk) 22:18, 28 October 2010 (UTC)

Hi, thanks for your comment. I've tried to re-word that section on Harry Bemis. - PM800 ( talk) 02:45, 31 October 2010 (UTC)
Hi, I've responded to your concerns regarding reliable sources on the nomination page. To be honest, I think this could be described as reliable a source as any I could provide for this article, especially considering that the source has been compiled into a book and was named by PC Magazine as one of their top 100 sites you didn't know you couldn't live without. However, I have added a second source to the article to back the fact up even further. Arctic Night 03:29, 31 October 2010 (UTC)
