Did You Know
A fact from this article appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the "Did you know?" column on November 18, 2008.
The text of the entry was: Did you know ... that the critically endangered Golden White-eye (pictured) of Saipan is threatened by a snake that eliminated practically all the forest birds of nearby Guam?
Current status: Featured article

Pre-GA Notes

[edit]
I can't keep up. At present our white-eye page shows them as a family with a few traditionally babbler birds added. But yeah, I should mention the confusion. I think this species/genus is still close to Zosterops. Sabine's Sunbird talk 19:41, 1 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Actually, the whole thing is such a mess it perhaps should be left alone in the lower down taxa until it is resolved. Sabine's Sunbird talk 22:04, 18 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Fair enough...(groan) Cheers, Casliber (talk · contribs) 22:24, 18 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Will do. Sabine's Sunbird talk 19:41, 1 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Derivation of the scientific name Cleptornis (thief bird???) marchei would be nice to get in.
I wonder where I can find that. Sabine's Sunbird talk 19:41, 1 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Apparently it refers to the old name for the Mariana Islands, the Islands of Robbers. How weird! Anyway, done and cited. Sabine's Sunbird talk 03:03, 2 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I just gave the article a quick copyedit. As always, please browse through it to ensure that I didn’t change any weird British things of meanings of the sentences. I also added some info from the Rare Birds Yearbooks. After going through it, I had two questions:

Does the Pratt mentioned in Taxonomy have a first name?
In Diet, which trees specifically does it pollinate?

Beyond that, this looks like a pretty good article. Congrats on getting so many good pictures as well. Rufous-crowned Sparrow (talk) 21:48, 23 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, H. Douglas Pratt is the author of the region's field guide and considered by most to be the current authority of the region's avifauna. --Natureguy1980 (talk) 18:28, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Towards FAC....

[edit]

Looking alright. I massaged the prose a bit. Notes below. Casliber (talk · contribs) 08:12, 1 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • I'd link gleaning if possible.
  • I slotted in early offshoot after basal. Better than an easter egg link maybe. change back if you want.

Not sure what else - I think FAC might pass at first go. Casliber (talk · contribs) 08:12, 1 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
