The article on Foreign-body giant cell is well written and does not have any grammatical errors. However, there is not a great amount of information given on the subject. It illustrates what a foreign-body giant cell is made up of and that it causes a response in the human body. It also has two pictures of the cell that I believe add to the article a great deal. Another good contribution it includes is a chart that depicts myeloid lineage and it shows the different kind of WBC's and RBC's. I also like that at the bottom of the chart there are highlighted subtopics that people can learn more about. I think this article can be improved and is lacking in some areas. For example, I would like to know more about the life cycle of this cell or go into more specifics about the reaction it has within the body. I would also like to know if there is the same abundance of these types of cells in babies, young adults and the elderly.

This could be tough one but take a shot at it. It really needs a rewriting to make it flow better and I think more details as you point out. I am wondering how inflammation enters into it? I also do not see what I am supposed to be seeing in the images that are there. You might want to look for better open access images or blow up these and add arrows or something indicating the "foreign body giant cell reaction" in the top right figure. Do you see what they are talking about? I don't. A history section would also be good in keeping with the encyclopedic style. Jparcoeur (talk) 15:00, 30 October 2015 (UTC)
