1. Link to the article you will be editing: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_organ

2. Reason why you will be making edits and any additional notes: This article needs to be updated in terms of contemporary progress - many of the sources date back to the earl 2000s. Initial research on artificial organs revealed that since this article was made there have been many advances in artificial organs. For example, new technologies to create these organs (3D printing) as well as entire new organs (an artificial vagina was recently made).

3. New sources you will likely include in the final stages of edits: https://www.nih.gov/news-events/nih-research-matters/making-artificial-ovaries https://www.cnbc.com/2017/03/27/scientists-grew-beating-human-heart-tissue-on-spinach-leaves.html
