Anhydrobiosis[edit]

Hi Cihan,

thanks for your edit to Cryptobiosis#Anhydrobiosis, particularly since you have published in the field. However, since you only added references to your own papers, your contribution could be seen as conflicting with Wikipedia:Conflict of interest. Would it be possible for you to add some more information, taken from a broader range of sources?

You might also be interested in a special manuscript track at PLOS, in which review articles are written for and published in a PLOS journal such that they can then live on as Wikipedia articles. While the approach is demoed with PLOS Computational Biology, we are discussing how to expand that, and Anhydrobiosis (which currently redirects at Cryptobiosis#Anhydrobiosis) would seem like a good candidate topic. For more information on the manuscript track, see here.

Cheers,

Hi Daniel,
You're right about the conflict of interest, I didn't think that way. I was actually planning to add more citations to the section in general, because there are so many sentences that are not properly cited. For the moment I could add only 3 more. I'll try to do the rest when I have more time.
