Ornate shrew edit

Sorex ornatus relictus

  • ... that the tail of the ornate shrew (pictured) is bicolored?
Article should be "pretty" enough for DYK. I'll continue to work on it, with eye towards GA eventually. Gaff (talk) 20:44, 19 January 2015 (UTC)

5x expanded by Gaff (talk). Self nominated at 05:47, 13 January 2015 (UTC).

  • New enough (nominated within two days of beginning expansion), long enough (>3000 characters, approximately 13x expansion), QPQ done. Article is appropriately cited with inline citations, neutral. No copyvio or close paraphrasing that I could detect. Image is appropriately licensed. Both hooks are within the character limit, supported by sources. Good to go. G S Palmer (talkcontribs) 17:45, 19 January 2015 (UTC)
