Weka edit
I want to get this to Good Article. What needs doing? Not much more to say. --Teggles 04:45, 11 October 2007 (UTC)
- Everything needs to be expanded except Taxonomy and Conservation. Description needs a compare and contrast of Weka with other rails. Possibly rename to "Morphology". Distribution maps are needed. Do away with the gallery, it only has two pictures.--BirgitteSB 19:48, 11 October 2007 (UTC)
- I agree with all above but prefer Description' to Morphology as other bird FAs follow that layout - taxonomy has gone before description in others. Just call taxonomy and have suheading subspecies. Have a look at Common Raven. I can help with some refs later. Can add description of juveniles, vocalisation can go in description; are tehy territorial, sedentary, what other research. How are they related to other rails? it isn't too far off GA really. cheers, Casliber (talk · contribs) 07:08, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
- comment - Is Weka in its native form a plural ? There seems to be some inconsistency in the usage of "Weka are..", "The Weka ... is..." etc. Shyamal 10:35, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
- "Weka" appears to be in common usage as a plural. "Weka are" is used 91 times on government websites, while "Wekas are" is used 9 times. Usage of both a plural ("Weka are") and a singular term ("The Weka is") doesn't seem to conflict, featured article Common Raven uses both ("Common Ravens are", "The Common Raven is"). --Teggles 11:01, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
