Comments

  • Overall, the standard of the article is high.
  • It is of adequate length, with 1,286 words of readable prose.
  • The lead is reasonable given the length of the article at 308 words.
  • Authorship is 90.4% from the nominator with contributions from 21 other editors.
  • It is currently assessed as a B class article and a Did you know nomination.

Criteria

The six good article criteria:

  1. It is reasonable well written.
    the prose is clear, concise, and understandable to an appropriately broad audience; spelling and grammar are correct;
    • The writing is clear and appropriate.
    • Please check "These phenotypes were previously incorrectly thought to be related to sex or representing different species". Consider "These phenotypes were previously incorrectly thought to be related to differences between the sexes or to represent different species".
    • Consider a comma before "and" in "the upperparts, flanks, and undertail coverts are olive-green and the tail is darker olive-green".
    • Consider "According to a 2012 study of genetic data, the black-headed tailorbird is most closely related to the white-eared tailorbird, and these two species are further closest to the yellow-breasted tailorbird". It feels confusing having "most closely" and "closest" in such close proximity. Is there an alternative way to say this that is clearer?
    • Change "adults having a 'black phenotype'" to "adults have a 'black phenotype'" for consistent grammar in the list.
    • I can see no other obvious spelling or grammar errors.
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    it complies with the Manual of Style guidelines for lead, layout and word choice.
    • The article is compliant.
    it contains a reference section, presented in accordance with the layout style guideline;
    • A reference section is included, with sources listed. It would be easier to use with a separate section listing the pages, but this is not a GA criteria.
    • Please check the DOI for Ripley 1950 as it seems to be inactive as of April 2024.
    all inline citations are from reliable sources;
    • Please add that Madge 2020 requires subscription.
    • Spot checks confirm Halley 2022, Hachisuka 1943 and Jobling 2010 cover the topic.
    it contains no original research;
    • All relevant statements have inline citations.
    it contains no copyright violations nor plagiarism;
    • Earwig gives a 0% chance of copyright violation, which is extremely impressive.
  3. It is broad in its coverage
    it addresses the main aspects of the topic.
    • The article is compliant.
    it stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style).
    • The article is compliant.
  4. It has a neutral point of view.
    it represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to different points of view.
    • The article seems generally balanced and covers the controversy well.
  5. It is stable.
    it does not change significantly from day to day because of any ongoing edit war or content dispute.
    • There is no evidence of edit wars.
  6. It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
    images are tagged with their copyright statuses, and valid fair use rationales are provided for non-free content;
    • The image has an appropriate PD tag. Please confirm that it does not need an equivalent US tag.
    images are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions.
    • The image is appropriate. Although not a GA criteria, suggest adding ALT text for accessibility.
