 Comment: My apologies for the delay. I am in the middle of moving back to the U.S. from Mexico, so things have been a bit...crazy. I hope to be done by the end of the weekend! -Pax Verbum 01:47, 21 August 2016 (UTC)

Nevermind, I had an unexpected chunk of free time! I have added additional comments and am placing the review on hold while they are addressed. Please let me know if you have any questions. This is on my watchlist, but it might be helpful to ping me if needed, or when you are done. Thank you! -Pax Verbum 02:37, 21 August 2016 (UTC)

The lead mentions using the inner bark for bread in times of famine, but this particular use is not mentioned in the article (although the making of bread is mentioned, just not using it in times of famine). This aspect of the lead can be improved to be more broad regarding the use of the inner bark. It doesn't have to be exhaustive, since it is the lead of course, but I think that it does need to be a bit wider, and the discrepancy about the famine use needs to be remedied.

The first two sentences under "uses" would be better suited in the distribution section. I am not sure how they relate to the "uses" of the downy birch.
