Hi, I am reviewing this article for GA. I have a few comments which I will leave below. —Mattisse (Talk) 00:00, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

- You have circumpolar wikilinked but it goes to a disambig page that is not helpful in explaining what you mean.
- I checked the original source to make sure, and they basically meant widely distributed around the world except for tropical regions, so I just switched "circumpolar" to "widespread". Sasata (talk) 04:59, 29 April 2009 (UTC)
- Wikilinks should occur at the first mention of the term, and then repeated if you feel it is necessary later in the article. For example, fruiting body is not wikilinked in the lead, but is somewhere in the body.'

- This is a very good article, but it is a very complex read for the general reader. I think there should be more context for the terms in the text, especially as the wikilinks go to complexly-worded articles. So much use of technical terms without explanation is WP:JARGON and violates a GA requirement.

This is a fascinating article, but it is still way too filled with jargon. If you could expand the article some to include an explanation of the jargon, the reader would benefit immensely. —Mattisse (Talk) 21:08, 29 April 2009 (UTC)
- I got the impression from your edits that it was largely the "Lifestyle" section that was the problem, so this section has now been expanded to include description of more basic fungal biology. Are there any other sections you think need more help? Sasata (talk) 21:36, 29 April 2009 (UTC)
