Kites

Nice job improving Whistling Kite. Sabine's Sunbird talk 09:03, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

Brown Rock Chat

Thanks for nominating Brown Rock Chat... how did you come across it? I just made it barely 3 days back! Dunno what was the DYK factoid - am going there to see! But thanks!mukerjee (talk) 07:59, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

Glad you found it... For the DYK factoid - this could also be something:

"Is a good mimic, has been recorded imitating to perfection the songs of Yellow-eyed Babbler, Tickell's Blue Flycatcher, and Smaller Grey Cuckoo-Shrike"? This may be be "interesting" - but so is as the fact that it nests in inhabited houses ... But then both mimic-ing and nesting in rafters also happen to some other species. Hope it makes it!

Why don't you change your profile (under preferences) so that the "talk" page shows up? That way people you interact with don't have to hunt for it as much... Thanks again!mukerjee (talk) 09:46, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

Moving awards, etc.

Can I move a DYK notice from my talk page to my user page? If so, how? MeegsC | Talk 12:52, 27 April 2007 (UTC) {{helpme}}

Yes, you can. The easiest way is to use your browser's cut-and-paste feature to cut the markup out of your user talk page and to paste the same markup into your userpage. Hope that helps! --ais523 13:03, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

No worries

Thanks for the compliments to birds. I already have Whistling Kite on my watchlist but I wouldn't worry too much, species articles don't tend to attract too much attention form miscreants. It's bird that I'm reverting three times a day - what a vandal-fest. Have a good time in Greece - take lots of pictures! We need pictures! Sabine's Sunbird talk 00:19, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

Brown Rock Chat

Power be to you !!! Thanks! mukerjee (talk) 13:46, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

Reindeer

Hi MeegsC. Thanks for your mention of Reindeer hunting in Greenland at DKY. Much appreciated. If you have any suggestions for article improvement, it would also be appreciated. Regards. -- Fyslee/talk 20:09, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for Nomination

		The Random Acts of Kindness Barnstar
		In light of you nominating my article on Joe Baksi for Did You Know..., I'd like to show my appreciation by this award. Thanks again, - Work permit 16 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for nominating Joe Baksi on DYK. It's my first article created from scratch, your endorsement means a lot to me.--Work permit 02:35, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

Taxoboxes

Thanks for pointing that out. I've updated Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Birds (genus taxobox example) Smallweed 09:36, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

Wing bones

I found a public domain image and just cleaned it up a bit. Hope this will serve your purpose. Shyamal 15:05, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

Yes, you could edit the image and add lines and numbers. It may also be converted to vector format (SVG) in due course. Shyamal 00:51, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

Alternately I could label up an image and upload it soon. Shyamal 03:23, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

Let me know if you need any modification to this one. Shyamal 15:03, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

Uploading images

It's a matter of personal preference, as far as I am concerned. It is probably better to upload them onto the Commons, be sure to follow the conventions there and at least tag the image with a category. It's easier to upload images onto Misplaced Pages directly, and someone will eventually load it onto the commons. Once you've uploaded someone else's image that you have permission for you'll need to email the permission you've obtained for that image to Misplaced Pages as spelled out in Misplaced Pages:Requesting copyright permission#When permission is confirmed (unless they are prepared to upload it themelsves). A bit of a trial for the people kind enough to give us permission but I guess its their to protect them.

Did you have a good time in Greece? Sabine's Sunbird talk 19:11, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

Aw gee thanks....

Now to get this #$@*$*$ article to FAC but we're just waiting for Clayoquot to get back from the library...cheers, Cas Liber | talk | contribs 09:59, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

Meidias Painter

Thank you for the nomination. It's always gratifying to know my writing is being read. The hook seems fine to me, hope it's successful. Twospoonfuls 10:05, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

DYK list

Yes, you do qualify for the list. Excellent work. Keep it up. Anonymous Dissident 13:36, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

Page numbers in reference

I'll admit they are not an obligation, but I find it highly revealing that a majority of articles that can do include page numbers in the current FA log. I don't request something like Cameroon or Mom and Dad (version before I combined identical refs), both of which are ridiculous (each in their own way). Another option is a "first ref abbreviated" system as for Samuel Adams (which I also used for a few paper refs in Verbascum thapsus), although I've found I liked that system less, because you have to hunt the original citations in preceding footnotes. Circeus 15:54, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

I recently adjusted International Phonetic Alphabet to a similar mixed style (with abbreviated titles, and content notes), Quatermass II is another example of what Raven will probably look like, with both full and abbreviated references. For a FA with books, but no page number, see École Polytechnique massacre. For one with the (IMHO horrendous, but probably useful here because there are so many of them) "linked footnotes," see Conatus.

Book parts are more reasonable to cite without page numbers, and are accommodated by {{cite book}}, although multiple chapters from the same book might be best abbreviated as Last, First, "Chapter", in Editor, page numbers. You could optionally use the book title with page numbers in the abbreviated form to bypass author. Circeus 15:01, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks

Hey thanks

Haliaster

The move from Haliaster to Haliastur is fine. In my opinion, leaving the Haliaster redirect is a good thing, as it means that if anyone accidentally misspells it (as you did), they will be able to see the error. If you really want to get rid of the old name, go to Haliaster and replace the #REDIRECT with {{db-author}}, and an admin will delete the "Haliaster" page. John Vandenberg 22:09, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

Regarding types of Raven

Hi MeegsC, the NHM types can be checked using and the other site mentioned for looking up data is GBIF. Actually the reply (Dr Prys-Jones?) says there are many types. Not that there is no type specimen of the taxon (Corvus corax corax). Even if there is no holotype for Linnaeus specimens, there is most likely a designated neotype. Shyamal 14:43, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for nomination

Brilliant! No one has ever done that to me before. Of course the point is, that although the novel is 'set' at Sutton Hoo, the facts and characters, despite retaining their original names and identities, have all been horribly scrambled, which is annoying for the archaeologists! I wonder how it will get on. Thankyou anyhow. Best wishes, Dr Steven Plunkett 00:05, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

Haha! It was vaulted into notoriety before even the inline refs got in. Best wishes Dr Steven Plunkett 00:47, 29 May 2007 (UTC)

Flight feathers

Here are some possibly additional areas for coverage

• Is there something substantial on feather adaptations in aquatic birds ? Cormorants vs Ducks etc.
• Mot-mot tail feathers (bill manipulated shape - is that right?)
• Is the Alula not considered here ?
• A little more on aerodynamics
• Sound production - http://www.cumv.cornell.edu/pdf/Bostwick_Zyskowski_2001.pdf, http://www.sciencemag.org/cgi/content/abstract/309/5735/736 http://jeb.biologists.org/cgi/content/full/206/20/3693

Great going! Shyamal 04:13, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

Beats me. Why does it say, articles with unsourced ... at the bottom ? Shyamal 04:20, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

Motmot tails - they drop on their own. Also was looking at another belief that melanized feathers are stronger and it looks like even that may need to be re-examined http://jeb.biologists.org/cgi/content/full/207/2/285/ Shyamal 08:52, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

DYK nomination

Hi, thanks for nominating Cassiber. I'm honoured. --Bruce1ee 06:01, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

Head of the River (Queensland)

Hi, Yeah I just noticed the lifted part. I didn't write that section though. It was originally part of the Head of the River (Australia) article that needed to be broken up..so I just moved all the existing info to the new article. Sorry..should have been more attentive.

Need sources

Hi MeegsC,

See this comment Remiges illustration. Do you know of any accurate source illustrations that can be looked up ? Shyamal 03:46, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

if you get back in time. :) pschemp | talk 20:51, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

Commas or parentheses for scientific name in opening sentence and elsewhere

(Now that was a long header wasn't it?) There's a debate here about commas versus parentheses for scientific names for organisms (well in this case birds). I'm not sure whether this has been raised elsewhere but would be good to establish once and for all here and could apply as MOS across all biology articles. cheers, Casliber (talk · contribs) 21:03, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

New wing image

Hi, I found this new wing image in a book on www.archive.org . If you like it, maybe you could replace the current image. Shyamal 06:28, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

Re: Obelisk posture

Hey, thanks! I'm glad it was interesting. It seems to be a frequently asked question -- "why do dragonflies stand on their hands like that" -- since they look so funny doing it. —Celithemis 21:03, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

Gambia

OK, it'll be tomorrow now - not sure if I took many bird images on that holiday, but I'll do what I can. Jimfbleak 16:55, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

I've been through the list fixing some typos/weird Avibase names that I missed before. I don't know if you want to chop the Avibase link - all the country lists use it, but none reference it. Jimfbleak 19:02, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

I wouldn't trust the Avibase list too much. It uses US names and ignores generally accepted splits, so all the European lists, except the ones I constructed, have Black Scoter, but not Common Scoter. The status is often wrong, but varies from list to list (often rare species are not tagged as such). It's best to find a second source. I checked Eurasian Griffon here, and to my surprise it's listed for Senegal, so Avibase may well have got it right. I'll see what Birds of the Gambia says later. Jimfbleak 06:08, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

Also here and here. Jimfbleak 06:12, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

At least the SABC list uses the correct names! The avibase list is obviously more accurate than I thought, other than the US name problem. It's nearly 10 years since i went to The Gambia, and I didn't take many pics. I went to SA this year, but the bird pics I took don't overlap. I assume that you have Birds of the Gambia, so I'm not much help really.... Jimfbleak 12:17, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

I've moved the page back to its original name, and repointed a couple of links that went to the lower case version.

South American Bittern

Flight feather

I'm moving in a few days, so I can't really guarantee I'll look at it before next week. If anything, that list of birds without secondaries is bloaty. Don't put images on left of headers. Rework that one-sentence section. Also consider moving the single-use references inside the footnotes; separation has advantages, but is unnecessary for material used only once. As a personal aside, I hate these linked notes (the abbreviation is enough IMO), but that's not an acceptable criterion. I have an inordinate fondness for title abbreviations over years, though that is horrible in linked notes Circeus 21:24, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

Bird unprotection

Golden Gate bridge

Hi Firsfron: Just wondering if you remember why you added the WP:Bird project template to the Golden Gate Bridge article (back in December 2006)... Inquiring minds want to know! :) MeegsC | Talk 13:03, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

Hi Meegs!

I actually have no idea; that was seven months ago. ;) But I assume it was a mistake, and it can be safely removed. Best wishes and happy editing, Firsfron of Ronchester 23:09, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

Citation needed

Hi. Thanks for your message. All I think we need to see is a sufficient reference to enable verification of what is said - much the same as with anything on Misplaced Pages really. I'm sure it's possible to find a single reference which covers this rather than having to include many. If you'd like to fix this, Denis Summers-Smith's works would be a good starting point - let me know if you need further help tracking down something suitable and I'll see what I can do. All the best. SP-KP 15:54, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

Long-billed Wren

I guess the naming standardisation doesn't apply to extinct birds. I suggest creating a stub Long-billed Wren (South America) and fixing the links that need to go to it. We can then either move Long-billed Wren to Long-billed Wren (New Zealand) and have Longbilled Wren as a redirect page or we can just have a dab notice at the top. Sabine's Sunbird talk 20:40, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

Bird lists

Thanks for nudging me. Yomangani 22:46, 22 July 2007 (UTC)

Certhia

Fixed that by putting the Common one back into the Short-toed article. Yes, Common and Brown are still somewhat close, but S-t is closer to Brown and Certhia hodgsoni (formerly included in Common) is actually rather a distinct sister species of Common. These form a western clade, and looking at a map, we have an "Atlantic" group (Brown & S-t.) and a "Eurasian" group (Common & Hogson's) in that clade. Dysmorodrepanis 20:51, 23 July 2007 (UTC)

Redirects

I'm certain only articles get redirects. There is no need for redirects to, it's unneeded duplication. Sabine's Sunbird talk 23:44, 23 July 2007 (UTC)

Bird of Gambia

hallo MeegsC,

I'm returned after three weeks visit from the Gambia. Enjoy on many pictures about some birds, which have so far still no picture in the Misplaced Pages. wait you however to I it within the next weeks upload. (e.g.: cattle egret, squacco heron, hooded vulture, african harrier-hawk, black wood hoopoe, woodland kingfisher, blue-breasted kingfisher, red-billed hornbill, white-crowned robin-chat, yellow-crowned gonolek, red-cheeked cordon-bleu) --Atamari 16:17, 24 July 2007 (UTC) (german wikipedia)

more than 90 percent upload: de:Benutzer:Atamari/Bildergalerie/Gambia/Avifauna

are the identification correct? --Atamari 23:07, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

Moult references

Hi MeegsC, SS pointed out that the bird article - moult section needs references. Since you covered many of those aspects on flight feather, you may know many of the refs. I could look up refs for most of those statements, but it would make the number of citations a little too much but since most of these are covered in Gill or Pettingill, it may be good to cite a single suitable text. Unfortunately I don't have any of those works around, but was wondering if you might have access to them. Cheers. Shyamal 08:35, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

Bird fair

Although I live in Leicestershire, I haven't made any plans to do so. I might go if there are some decent birds, but last weekend the water level was a bit high - Two adult Ospreys and juvenile in nest at Manton Bridge though. Jimfbleak 17:46, 14 August 2007 (UTC)

Peregrines

Hi. You asked me to have a look at the Peregrine page. I did, and made a few edits, but overall the page is not written from a very objective perspective. Several of the raptor pages are riddled with speculation, unsubstantiated (and unlikely theories, etc.) I haven't the time or energy to go correcting all that rot, especially given Wiki's rules. As an authoritative source, I'm not allowed to add my own knowledge, but must cite someone else (who may very well be less knowledgable than I) and I just don't have the energy to spend on what is rudamentary to me. The glaring stuff is gone, though>:)

Boilermaker

Hello MeegsC:

I see your note that you are a Boilermaker. I'm wondering which meaning of boilermaker the Purdue nickname comes from.

boil·er·mak·er (boi'lər-mā'kər) n.

  1. One that makes or repairs boilers.
  2. A drink of whiskey with a beer chaser.

Cheers, Wanderer57 19:26, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

Thanks. "The Purdue fans decided they rather liked the nickname, so it stuck! And I think Purdue might have won the game... :)"

I expect Purdue was more likely to keep the name after a win. ;o)

Un águila mexicana - a Mexican eagle

These sites seem to be fairly "official looking" on the subject of the Mexican flag and coat of arms.

Wanderer57 23:15, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

Me again. The links below may interest you. As you say, the National Bird may not be the same as the bird on the Coat of Arms. It would be confusing, but certainly is possible. Two different genus names show up for the caracara.

You might want to post a question in Talk:Mexico. There are active Mexican editors of that article, including Supraman.

Re: Greetings

Hello Meegs. I am Dominican, but have been living for the past four years in Spain. Nonetheless, most of my contribs are on Dominican topics, specially so on environmentally related issues, because I worked with the Hispaniolan Ornithological Society over there.

for all of them, although they're not very interesting -second column gives dones followed by blanks or blanks followed by dones you should see the column head you click on change to a down (or up) arrow, while the others give the sideways arrow indicators - can't understand why we are getting diff results from the same table.
