• Keep Britannica, Ag Extension SFgate, Ephytia. Also, simply look through "plant stunting" on Google Scholar. CaptainEek ^{Edits Ho Cap'n!}⚓ 08:02, 23 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Also this list of topics on ScienceDirect [1] CaptainEek ^{Edits Ho Cap'n!}⚓ 08:05, 23 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I do think the name could be better, perhaps Stunted plant (botany), Plant stunting (botany) or something similar CaptainEek ^{Edits Ho Cap'n!}⚓ 08:07, 23 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep - article now has 3 sources. @Vitaium: you know there are easier ways to request sources for articles. Also, three years without an edit is not that bad. --awkwafaba (📥) 12:55, 23 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - This is a charming little article that describes a distinct and notable phenomenon. It does need a little care, yes, but I think I'll add it to my personal to-do list to help make it more dapper. InfamousArgyle (talk) 09:02, 25 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
