Pages about plants generally have an infobox. Could that be added? Floating Orb (talk) 20:53, 19 June 2025 (UTC)

Lead overused the word "many", so I fixed that up. Floating Orb (talk) 20:53, 19 June 2025 (UTC)
The sentence: "Cooking beans, without bringing them to a boil, in a slow cooker at a temperature well below boiling may not destroy toxins." comes out randomly. It sounds like a fun fact or trivia since it is additional information and has no elaboration. Should it be a note? Floating Orb (talk) 17:42, 9 July 2025 (UTC)
"Beans are a major source of dietary protein in much of Southeast Africa." does not fit the section of Toxins. It should be somewhere else. Floating Orb (talk) 17:44, 9 July 2025 (UTC)

Citation 3 has a tag that says "page needed". Should that be fixed? Floating Orb (talk) 20:43, 19 June 2025 (UTC)
Citation 32 and 33 are counted as citations but shouldn't they be notes? Floating Orb (talk) 02:25, 26 June 2025 (UTC)
The lead section does not need citations if what it says is mentioned later by citations. This article has two citations in the lead. Floating Orb (talk) 18:03, 27 June 2025 (UTC)
bbcgoodfood.com (citation 32, 38, and 39) may not be a reliable source for bias and self publishing. Floating Orb (talk) 17:58, 7 July 2025 (UTC)

Citation 3 is a dead link. Floating Orb (talk) 21:17, 7 July 2025 (UTC)
Citation 13 is also a dead link. A citation is needed also. Floating Orb (talk) 21:23, 6 July 2025 (UTC)
Citation 2 doesn't prove any of the information on the page. It seems to be a dead link or something. Floating Orb (talk) 16:28, 9 July 2025 (UTC)
b. A seed or pod of any of these plants. 2. Any of several related plants or their seeds or pods, such as the adzuki bean, broad bean, or soybean. 3. Any of various other plants or their seeds or fruits, especially those suggestive of beans such as the coffee bean or vanilla bean." This verifies the claim. Citation 3 doesn't prove its information either. Floating Orb (talk) 17:22, 9 July 2025 (UTC)
Citation 8 doesn't talk about squash at all. Floating Orb (talk) 17:24, 9 July 2025 (UTC)

Earwig says there is a 24.8% similarity copyright violation in "Health concerns Toxins" section paragraph three to https://web.archive.org/web/20130522113641/http://www.scidev.net/fr/climate-change-and-energy/tsunami/news/actualit-s-d-afrique-sub-saharienne-en-bref-du-25-.html. "Beans are a major source of dietary protein in Kenya, Malawi, Tanzania, Uganda and Zambia." might have also been taken word for word. Floating Orb (talk) 19:47, 7 July 2025 (UTC)

Scope (Criteria 3a, 3b)

I'm not sure about scope. It does have large graphs of beans for taxonomic range and production, maybe over stepping a bit. Floating Orb (talk) 18:23, 10 July 2025 (UTC)

The lead in this article does not fit with WP:Lead. It doesn't summarize any of the information about bean production, cultivation, human society effects, or history. Floating Orb (talk) 17:58, 9 July 2025 (UTC)
