Talk:Common gull

message: *One observation, it appears to be oddly inconsistent between North American and European usages. Gray Gull (NA spelling) yet Common Gull (British usage).

Talk:Common Teal

message: I've rearrange chunks of the text and added section headings to get the article under control. But the article still needs more work; particularly:
* the "Habits and Habitat" section is a mess
* the "Range" section is _ridiculously_ UK-specific for a duck with such a wide, mostly Asian range; this needs a complete rewrite
* the writing generally is not great (an artifact of its piece-by-piece writing history)
Anyway, I'm off to update my Life List...

thread_title: Untitled

message: Though I appreciate the intentions of following Wikipedia:Naming conventions (government departments and ministers), please perform a minimum of research before such a blatant move. Like most Swedish (and many other European countries) government agencies, the Swedish Rail Administration has an official English name. This can easily be identified on the English section of the official web site. This will dictate that name of the article falls under section three of the naming convention, since it is "in the event of the jurisdiction name being a natural part of the subject's name". To avoid a move war, I will wait 24 hours before moving the article, to allow opposition to my claim. Happy editing, Arsenikk (talk) 17:02, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I do apologise. I was going off the Swedish-language name given in the first sentence of each article, and as none of those include the word 'svenskar' or similar I was happy that I was moving the article correctly. It rather surprises me that some of these agencies choose to append 'Swedish' to their names. I suppose if they use 'Swedish xyz Agency' then that will be the most common usage in English, and I will go and check the rest to the best of my abilities (and revert this one!) ninety:one 17:24, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

I recommend you rephrase this sentence to correct the inaccuracy.

thread_title:  Addition of Information 

message: There was a lot to digest in this article, however it was very well written and did not need much grammatical editing. The only edits I made to the language of the article were in the lead section. I worked on concision and clarity in this passage to ensure the readers are able to understand the outline of the article easily. Regarding sections that I felt needed to be elaborated upon, the section on parasites and sperm competition felt short-winded. I found two primary literature articles discussing the many parasites of these lizards and how sperm competition effects male reproductive success. I added a few sentences on how many different types of parasites take advantage of the alimentary track of this lizard. For sperm competition, I discussed how neither sperm viability nor the order of male mating contributes to reproductive success of the males. It seems that inbreeding depression is the main source of selection for sperm after copulation. I thought it was appropriate to also include a few sentences on how multiple inseminations of a female lizard can lead to multiple paternity of the offspring of a single female.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Evanmbradley (talk • contribs) 01:48, 18 November 2021 (UTC)

In light of these descriptions, and after studying the maps supplied with the aforementioned publications, it looks to me that your find may be consistent with the extreme northeastern part of its range. --Jwinius 19:55, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

message: Sunyol's death is listed by this page as being in an ambush, but according to at least two sources (Jimmy Burns Barca: a people's passion and Barcelona's official website) he was stopped by a roadblock and taken prisoner before he was executed. Whether this constitutes an "ambush" or not is, I suppose, somewhat up to the interpretation of unknown events. From the Barcelona official site: "But Josep Sunyol’s brilliant career was cut short in tragic fashion on August 6, 1936, when as part of his political activities, the Barça president visited Republican troops near to Madrid. Without noticing, his car entered a zone controlled by Frano’s [sic] troops in Sierra de Guadarrama. Sunyol was identified and arrested, and without trial, he and his colleagues were shot dead on the spot."
