Talk:Marbled polecat

message: This was one of the first articles my friend and I provided some guidance despite being quite new myself at the time.  I see now we managed to list the conservation status (vulnerable) for the subspecies peregusna, rather than the species peregusna (least concern).  I noticed the discrepancy that LC was added to the info-box in contradiction to the text of the article, and I have now added to the infobox a hotlink to the textual notes.

thread_title: Conservation status update

message: I see this is now tagged as [citation needed] and surprisingly, Google does not provide anything which is not circular back to this article on Wikipedia. First added by Wgors, who originally supplied the thick sheaf of refs, so it is probably true.  We'll try to dig up the cite.  MaxEnt (talk) 15:44, 17 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Google scholar locates WA Gorsuch, S Larivière, M Polecat - Mammalian Species - bioone.org with an excerpt of the text on the search results page which confirms that this statement about Wormlein is present in the Mammalian Species account, but page itself is coin-operated and can only be viewed from participating institutions.  I'm becoming increasingly cranky about Google retreiving useful excerpts under links to locked doors, but what can you do?  MaxEnt (talk) 15:53, 17 November 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: Hi. Has anyone noticed how screwed up the article references are? There are 56 references according to the article and yet only 19 of them are displayed. Some are actually written into the Reference Section but that only accounts for a handful of them. There are more than 35 references that do not appear as references in the Reference Section display. How does that happen? I cannot even imagine how that can be done, in pursuit of trying to determine what the actual problem is. Will anyone else take a look at the Reference Section to try to discern the disparity between the 56 references and the 19 displayed ones? Thanks...

replies: text: I can fix this, when I find some time. On extremely hasty inspection, this problem seemingly dates back to the original work in 2006 when I was still pretty green on Wikipedia, and my friend with the fat polecat species account bibliography knew nothing whatsoever about Wikipedia markup. I was happy to see the present version. All things considered, this article has aged well. — MaxEnt 02:08, 31 January 2020 (UTC)
