You did a great job in describing the types of allergy tests that are done and what they tell about the allergies from the individual. I do believe that some pictures that show the actual tests will allow the readers to fully see and understand how these tests are done. Your introduction is great, i just think that making it shorter will be better for readers, since smaller paragraphs catch their attention more. You can still include the other information but after the introduction section. Subsections are also needed; for example you can put a sub-heading of "Different Types of Allergy Tests" and under describe the two tests you included in the article. This is better so the reader does not have to dive in completely and can find what they are looking for, faster. Overall, you did a great job in introducing the description of what the allergy test is and the different types. Oalvarez0 (talk) 16:48, 13 April 2020 (UTC)

This article is a great way to become aware about allergies since it is something many people suffer from all over and can affect just about anyone. As a whole, I felt this article contained enough information to effectively inform someone on allergy testing and the methods in doing so. Above all, I believe its greatest strength was its clarity and ability to be read with ease. For many people, being informed about processes in the medical field can be extremely complicated and difficult to understand. Stacy broke it down to its most simple form so anyone can be made aware of allergies and the various methods of testing. For improvement, she can possibly add symptoms to look out for if someone should considering taking an allergy test. This article met the majority of Wikipedia's Notability guidelines by giving reliable secondary sources, keeping a neutral tone, following the format of section headings and even linking to other categories to find out more of the topic. Overall, it was a great read! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gabydrod (talk • contribs) 18:43, 13 April 2020 (UTC)
