[edit] Section Unmerge?
Make general characteristics new section differentiated from history?
[edit] "Resemble" bacteria?
"Mycoplasma is a genus of small microorganisms that resemble bacteria" [ph1]
but,
"The genus Mycoplasma is one of several genera within the class Mollicutes. Mollicutes are bacteria... "[ph2]
Mollicutes=bacteria, mycoplasma=subset of mollicutes, therefore mycoplasma=bacteria, or not... ?
Or "Mycoplasma is a genus of small bacterium that lack cell walls and have small genomes and low GC-content (18-40 mol%)," getting rid of "resemble"... ?--Renice 15:35, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Start grade
This article has been graded at 'start' level. What is missing? What needs to be done? Robwaldo 23:38, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
- Generally speaking, I'd start by reading WP:What is a good article?. More specifically, references need to be integrated (see WP:CITE#Footnotes), more refs are needed overall (WP:RS), and subsections probably need clarification. Images are needed (or at least an image) -- see WP:UPIMAGE for details on how; the Public Health Image Library is a good place to start looking. There's certainly more to work on, but these are the things I'd start with. -- MarcoTolo 00:49, 17 February 2007 (UTC)
