Hi Eric,
Your pathway is really nice and looks like it could have some interesting and useful content. However, none of the data nodes (genes, proteins etc) in the pathway are annotated with database references, which means the pathway is not amenable to data overlay and other data analysis tools. You can add database references to the datanodes by searching for a name or ID in the search interface that comes up when you double-click on any node.

Hi Eric,
I made a couple example edits that will help shape this new pathway into a featured pathway. It's off to a great start! I connected Hexokinase to the database by searching for it's symbol "HK1", since it's common name "Hexokinase" is not a database standard. You can now see it in the datanode list at the bottom of the page. I also added an anchor point to a line so that a catalysis edge can connect to it properly. This will then form a real network and not just a visual diagram (see hexokinase's catalysis in edit mode). I also removed a redundant edge that just provided an arrow head but did not connect to anything. You can add arrow heads to existing lines via the Properties tab. These fixes will address all of the datanode and edge warnings currently on the pathway. If you could add a description, then you could remove that warning also. Finally, I changed the properties of most of your cellular component shapes to accurately reflect their use. For example changing the "nucleus" shape to "cell" for RBC. You can find these labels in the Properties tab as well. They are associated with certain shapes by default, but you can always overrride the meaning to be accurate.
Let us know if you have trouble with any other these tasks.
