    You’ve shared an original image that is appropriate to upload ti Wikimedia commons, and provided links to relevant articles.

    A next step would be to describe in more details what kind of activity you are suggesting to expand/improve the representation of thermoplastics in Wikipedia/Wikimedia. Why is this important? What approach would you take for such an activity?

  2. We were comparing this:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Composite_material (in english)

    https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Material_compuesto (in spanish)

    The main difference are the images: our research group could provide a lot of original photos (conventional and from characterization equipment).

    This was only an example of a short fiber thermoplastics example, made with native natural fiber from Jalisco.

    Saludos, Alan.

      I have fond memories of visiting the lab and learning about the agave fiber, it always impresses people when I describe it to them.
