Agelenopsis aperta

  • ... that the female Agelenopsis aperta spider enters a cataplectic state during mating, which means they lose control of their bodies and are unconscious? Experiments have shown that the cataplectic state is induced by pheromones from the males.

Template:Ping Ah yes, I saw it from here. Template:Ping 16px You had to nominated during that week. (CC) Tbhotch 01:22, 19 November 2020 (UTC)
However, on second thought Symbol possible vote.svg as the article is currently reviewed at GAN. So, if approved, it can go, But may that require a new nomination? (CC) Tbhotch 01:26, 19 November 2020 (UTC)
As long as this template is open, the nomination can proceed with a GA. But how long will we have to wait? Yoninah (talk) 23:26, 19 November 2020 (UTC)
Yoninah, the initial review was completed on 22 November, and is awaiting Mlschoening to address the issues raised. It's hard to predict how long the next steps will take, but with any luck it won't be overlong. BlueMoonset (talk) 07:10, 27 November 2020 (UTC)
Checking further, it appears that Mlschoening worked on this article (and nominated it at GA) as part of a course that ends in mid-December. Pinging Ian (Wiki Ed), who is listed as a resource for that class, in the hopes that the GA nomination will be responded to by the student. BlueMoonset (talk) 07:15, 27 November 2020 (UTC)
Template:U, I just sent the student an email, asking them to reply or leave a note as to when they will be able to. Thanks for the ping. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 21:21, 30 November 2020 (UTC)
  • As of December 8, the nominator appears to be responding to comments raised at the GAN. Yoninah (talk) 12:57, 8 December 2020 (UTC)
  • Symbol redirect vote 4.svg The article was listed earlier today as a GA, so it now qualifies as "new". There were many edits during the GA review process, so the article should be rechecked before a final approval. Pinging reviewer Tbhotch to take another look. Thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 21:30, 12 December 2020 (UTC)
  • I'll finish it in a few hours. (CC) Tbhotch 05:42, 13 December 2020 (UTC)

  • Symbol voting keep.svg Still assuming good faith on offline sources. Except for a few typos missed in the GA review, I see no major issues with the article. (CC) Tbhotch 17:30, 13 December 2020 (UTC)
  • Symbol question.svg Template:Ping The common name needs to be cited in the lead. Footnote 1 gives the common name as Funnel-web spider. The hook fact also needs an inline cite per WP:DYK#Cited hook.
  • The hook has grammatical problems. If the subject is singular, it should read:
  • ALT0a: ... that the female Agelenopsis aperta spider enters a cataplectic state during mating, which means it loses control of its body and is unconscious? Yoninah (talk) 22:28, 13 December 2020 (UTC)
  • Template:Ping Trivialities fixed per request. (CC) Tbhotch 15:29, 14 December 2020 (UTC)
  • Symbol voting keep.svg Template:Ping Thank you. We've been cited at WP:ERRORS in the past over these "trivialities". Restoring tick for ALT0a per your review. Yoninah (talk) 15:35, 14 December 2020 (UTC)

Hello! Thank you for looking over my hook and article for DYK. Let me know if there's anything I need to change. I agree with the grammatical change above- thanks for catching that! Mlschoening (talk) 02:02, 15 December 2020 (UTC)
