• There's a lot of structural qualms I have. The one sentence in the Protective coloration section should be in the Description section; Habitat and Food resources seem to talk about the same thing and should be merged; the information in the Social behavior section should be moved to relevant sections because there's no point in having a Social behavior section if it's just gonna repeat information from other places.

I ended up deleting the protective coloration section because I could not find original source for it. As for social behavior see previous comment about structure. I am willing to redo the structure to not follow the Diptera project outline if neccesary. Also I am not sure how to properly reply so feel free to move my comments to a more apropriate section. Thank you! OstapKukhar (talk) 02:22, 20 November 2019 (UTC)

• This is a highly unusual structure for an article. Normally what I see is Classification, Description, Life history (Mating, Development), Ecology

I am following the structure outlined in Wikipedia:WikiProject Diptera here. I can redo it to fit the mentioned structure but not sure which one is better. OstapKukhar (talk) 02:22, 20 November 2019 (UTC)

There aren't very many hard rules in Wikipedia, just guidelines just in case you're kinda lost. It's best to do what's best for the article rather than make the information fit into guidelines, because guidelines are too broad to work for every article. There are a lot of of subsections that comprise only 1 or 3 sentences, which is not good. There's no reason to split if you don't have much to split, so merge the sections   User:Dunkleosteus77 |push to talk  04:39, 20 November 2019 (UTC)

• There's a citation needed tag in the Genetics section   User:Dunkleosteus77 |push to talk  17:24, 17 November 2019 (UTC)

Done. OstapKukhar (talk) 02:22, 20 November 2019 (UTC)

• There's a lot of images in the Larvae section so you may wanna use {{multiple image}}   User:Dunkleosteus77 |push to talk  17:24, 17 November 2019 (UTC)

• The Pupae section doesn't actually give any information specific to the fly, it just gives the definition of pupa   User:Dunkleosteus77 |push to talk  17:24, 17 November 2019 (UTC)

The information and pictures about Pupae are specific to this species. It is naturally similar to other similar fly species. User:Dunkleosteus77 OstapKukhar (talk) 03:31, 8 July 2021 (UTC)

• There are still far too many tiny sections. Merge them. Don't worry about the WikiProject Diptera layout. Focus on just this article   User:Dunkleosteus77 |push to talk  15:28, 30 December 2019 (UTC)

Merged many of the sections are restructured. Could you let me know if overall structure is ok now and what you would change. OstapKukhar (talk) 02:52, 8 July 2021 (UTC)

Overall, not really GA quality yet, and failing for inactivity   User:Dunkleosteus77 |push to talk  16:08, 6 January 2020 (UTC)
