- Jessica, remember to use the Bibliography page for references. Please write the whole ref with author names, year, title, journal, vol, and PubMed link if available.

You'll see that on the Related articles subpage I've placed links to all the articles from the other groups this year - and also to last year's articles. Good luck with this.Gareth Leng 16:01, 9 October 2010 (UTC)
Hi guys, your reference list needs to be developped a bit more, have a look at what the other group have done, it'll give you an idea of how much they already put in. Also, you should start thinking about your introduction and plan for your main article. Nancy Sabatier 16:31, 14 October 2010 (UTC)
The plan looks sensible; you do need to keep a sharp eye out for key experimental studies; I'd suggest that you use the bibliography page to capture key details of experimental studies of particular significance; whether and how you incorporate those in the main article you can decide later. Without more detail and seeing what you're doing I can't give any better feedback at this stage.Gareth Leng 14:29, 25 October 2010 (UTC)
Cadi, if you look at the Mountjoy article (link to it in bibliog) there's quite an interesting bit about the fact that they've not developed specific melanocortin knock out mice. so there are some ideas for future directions etc there. Jessica Ivy 20:29, 26 October 2010 (UTC)
This article is starting to take shape. Good! Though I agree with Nancy that the scope of reading should be increased to encompass original research papers. Watch out for your spelling and make sure you are consistent with terms that might be unfamiliar to the lay reader; AGRP v. AgRP, for example. The latter is more commonly used.
