message: Feel free to use this reference here. I may not get around to it. See depleted uranium. 
*Depleted uranium at Wah Chang led to decades of health woes. By Bennett Hall. Corvallis Gazette-Times. June 22, 2016. Article quote (emphasis added):
While Wah Chang workers were eligible to apply for EEOICPA benefits from the time the law went into effect in 2001, few seem to have been aware of it before the creation of the special exposure cohort and designation of a residual exposure period in 2011.
In general, eligible Wah Chang workers are covered under Part B of the program. Those who qualify receive a lump sum payment of $150,000, plus medical benefits covering the cost of treatment for 22 different types of cancer.
So far, 451 current or former Wah Chang employees — or their survivors in cases where the employee has died — have filed 672 claims for benefits. To date, 302 of those claims have been approved and the government has paid out $32.6 million in cash compensation and $2.3 million in medical bills.
But an unknown number of people who might qualify for benefits still have never been told about the program.

Talk:Vermilion flycatcher

message: Early in the chapter on behaviour, the article says They spend most of their time in trees or perching. I cannot see how these are exclusive alternatives. To me it is perfectly possible for a bird to be both perched and in a tree, i.e. perched on a branch in a tree. Neither can perched be explanatory of in a tree. One is a kind of place and the other is a kind of stance. I get the impression from other parts of the article that it is mostly flying around chasing insects. Maybe it does this mostly within tree canopies. And maybe sometimes it rests, perched on a branch in the tree. --Ettrig (talk) 21:09, 3 May 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: , Hmmm yes the phrasing there should probably change. But to clarify, they actually spend rather little time chasing insects.

thread_title: References

message: The paragraph on nesting and breeding says toward the end: Clutches average two or three, but may occasionally include four eggs. The average is one value (in reality and at a particular time). Most probably the intention is to say that it is somewhere in between. There is no apparent contradiction between average being 3 and instances of 4 occurring sparsely. I suggest change to: Average clutch size is between two and three. This implies that 4 is possible, so there is no need to write that. Another possibility: Clutches normally contain two or three eggs. or ... and four eggs occur occasionally.--Ettrig (talk) 20:06, 6 May 2020 (UTC)
