the article's major sections which hold a significant part in informing the viewers, like myself, the exact contents of the article. Overall, the Lead is lacking in detail and should be updated to include a brief description of each of the article's major sections: the Genesis, Birth, Life, Death, and Legacy of Dolly. On a side note, this article contains many strengths, such as the "Legacy" section that provided a great amount of explanation as to why this phenomenon led the way to future scientific findings. Providing information about other successful animal cloning, such as the primate species, was also a really nice touch. Having just learned about Dolly, it's astonishing to know about other recent studies that have used the same cloning techniques used on Dolly. Another strength is that the content is up-to-date. There are many new studies cited within this article that contain information about other animal cloning experiments. I found myself skimming through these numerous articles cited below in the References.

raised? Was she kept together with other sheep, or isolated for research purposes? I was expecting to learn more about her upbringing, but did not quite get the information I was looking for. I would recommend to update this section with more details concerning her life, as the current version leaves me with many questions.

The Lead of the article does provide a concise introductory sentence that summarizes the article as a whole, therefore allowing for the general viewers to obtain an idea of what the article will contain. However, the lead is only composed of one sentence. It does not include a brief description of

This article can still be improved in some areas. For example, the "Life" section of the article contains very little information about Dolly's life, despite her living up to 6.5 years! Although mentioned that she lived her entire life in the Institute that she was cloned in, how exactly was she

Speaking at an employment tribunal in Edinburgh, Prof Wilmut said he did not develop the technology or conduct the experiments, and played only a supervisory role." source: 1267:

There is no followup on Dolly's lambs. One would expect their centromeres, health, and lifespan to be normal and similar to their female grandparent and male parent, but this is not confirmed.

I suggest an Ethical Questions section (or sub-section under Legacy) providing an overview of pros and cons that have been raised in research, medicine, and socio-cultural fields. There is an

She was born on 5 July 1996 and died from a progressive lung disease five months before her seventh birthday (the disease was not considered related to her being a clone) on 14 February 2003.

The people who did the actual cloning were Karen Walker (nee Mycock) and Bill Richie. Prof Keith Campbell was the person who supervised, and co-authored the paper on the cloning of Dolly.
