Initial comments

Not sure what this fine article is doing as a mere GAN: to my mind it has FAC written all over it. But either at GA or FA level it needs to be in a single variety of English, and at present it is a mish-mash of BrE and AmE: fibres and behaviours -v- fiber and behavior, and so on. At first glance I think AmE spelling predominates, but whether you go nap on that or on BrE (and I don't imagine anyone will quibble about WP:ENGVAR whichever you go for) you really ought to stick with one or the other. Over to you for now. I hardly think we need put the review formally on hold (unless you'd prefer it.) Must go: I feel a bacon butty coming on. Tim riley talk 12:40, 10 April 2024 (UTC)

• Thanks Tim! There seems to be a tradition of AmE in the article, so I've fixed a few fibres and behaviours. Odors, flavors, and colors all seem to be in order. Added an AmE tag. Chiswick Chap (talk) 12:57, 10 April 2024 (UTC)

• OK, but you might tidy up carcass-v-carcase, and maybe shove a z into "publicised". Tim riley talk 13:18, 10 April 2024 (UTC)

• Done! Chiswick Chap (talk) 17:50, 10 April 2024 (UTC)
