I have created this article ten years ago when I was an ambitious middle schooler who wanted to add more depth into the various bovine tribes. Of course being as I was a kid, I was not fully mature and did not know how to properly write/cite articles for Wikipedia. Since then, I have done a lot more articles and have better understood how to do articles more properly according to the site's guidelines, as well as finally knowing how to do citations more properly. With that said I decided to go back to some articles that I have years ago to make them more comprehensive and in depth. I do appreciate some assistance as I would love to have this article to get at least a "B" rating.
I am also in the process of moving the page to Tragelaphini, given the fact most bovid systematists and biologists use it instead of Strepsicerotini. A simple Google search shows Tragelaphini getting more web results instead of Strepsicerotini (even though there is a strong case for Strepsiceros being a valid genus).-- 4444hhhh ( talk) 16:56, 1 November 2017 (UTC)
There are two subsections I want to put in the Natural History and Relationships with Humans. For the former I would love to get into some depth about tragelaphin parasites. There is a lot of literature about them out there, but it to condense this into a generalization about the group as a whole is tricky. If anyone can direct me to such a source, or at least point to the direction of good papers on tragelaphin parasites that would be great. For the latter section I want to put in a subsection about them in culture (in particular African folklore and them as herald animals, etc.) BUT there does not seem to be a good source on this matter. If anyone can recommend me papers again, that would be spectacular.-- 4444hhhh ( talk) 03:51, 3 November 2017 (UTC)
While this article has gotten a lot better since its simple, humble beginnings ten years ago, I am sure there is still bound to be errors in terms of pacing, minor grammatical errors and keeping the article informal/easy to digest to read according to Wikipedia's guidelines. I have been doing as such as we speak but others are welcome to help give this a look over. Trying to get this article to be submitted a G.A.-- 4444hhhh ( talk) 03:54, 3 November 2017 (UTC)

Thank you User:Dunkleosteus77 for taking the time in reviewing the article as well as providing some excellent feedback. I pretty much will take these into consideration, and have nothing else to say about using refs in the lead as User:Lusotitan pretty much said everything. The only thing I will mention is the comment about Genetics and hybridization be under Systematics. Isn't genetics/hybridization more in align with natural history, as to my understanding other wikiarticles that talk about genetics and hybrids usually keep it separate from systematic. Grant it does go indepth about the evolution of chromosomes, but it does not flow well with the systematic section.-- 4444hhhh ( talk) 00:06, 26 November 2017 (UTC)
Where does this review stand at the moment? This page hasn't been posted to since late November. Dunkleosteus77, are you waiting for something to be done by nominator 4444hhhh, or are they waiting for you to post more? I see that the grammar/syntax work you requested has not been done (a request to the Guild of Copy Editors would have been completed before now). Thanks.
