There is consensus for mammals, insects, plants and reptiles for lower case names, however birds are a distinct case, with ornithological societies declaring Official common names etc. So the names are capitalised, well, about 9000 bird species articles currently are anyway.

Guild of Copy Editors January 2012 backlog elimination drive
  Greetings from the
Guild of Copy Editors
January 2012 Backlog elimination drive! Here is your end-of-drive wrap-up newsletter. Participation 45 people signed up for this drive this time; of these, 35 participated. This is similar to the number of editors who helped out in November. Thanks to all who participated! Barnstars will be distributed in the near future. Progress report Recent drives have been focusing on the oldest three months in the backlog. During this drive we were successful in eliminating our target months—July, August, and September 2010—from the queue, and there are less than 300 articles remaining from 2010. End-of-drive results and barnstar information can be found here. When working on the backlog, please keep in mind that there are options other than copy editing available; some articles may be candidates for deletion, or may not be suitable for copy editing at this time for other reasons. The {{ GOCEreviewed}} tag can be placed on any article you find to be totally uneditable, and you can nominate for deletion any that you discover to be copyright violations or completely unintelligible. If you need help deciding what to do, please contact any of the coordinators. Thank you for participating in the January 2012 drive! All contributions are appreciated. Our next copy edit drive will be in March. Your drive coordinators – The Utahraptor talk, S Masters ( talk), Diannaa ( Talk), Stfg ( Talk), Sp33dyphil ( talk), and Dank ( talk) |

 Greetings from the
Guild of Copy Editors
March 2012 Backlog elimination drive! Here's the mid-drive newsletter. Participation: We have had 58 people sign up for this drive so far, which compares favorably with our last drive, and 27 have copy-edited at least one article. If you have signed up but have not yet copy-edited any articles, please consider doing so. Every bit helps! If you haven't signed up yet, it's not too late. Join us! Progress report: Our target of completing the 2010 articles has almost been reached, with only 56 remaining of the 194 we had at the start of the drive. The last ones are always the most difficult, so thank you if you are able to help copy-edit any of the remaining articles. We have reduced the total backlog by 163 articles so far. Special thanks: Special thanks to Stfg, who has been going through the backlog and doing some preliminary vetting of the articles—removing copyright violations, doing initial clean-up, and nominating some for deletion. This work has helped make the drive a more pleasant experience for all our volunteers.

Special acknowledgement goes out to Lfstevens, who did over 200 articles, most of them in the last third of the drive, and topped all three leaderboard categories. You're a superstar! Stfg and others have been pre-checking the articles for quality and conformance to Wikipedia guidelines; some have been nominated for deletion or had some preliminary clean-up done to help make the copy-edit process more fun and appealing. Thanks to all who helped get those nasty last few articles out of the target months. Progress report During this drive we were successful in eliminating our target months—October, November, and December 2010—from the queue, and have now eliminated all the 2010 articles from our list. We were able to complete 500 articles this month! End-of-drive results and barnstar information can be found here.

Hola,
I noticed that you are also editing the fossa ovalis article. I was thinking, quite a lot of the article talks about patent foramen ovale, which already has an article. Perhaps it would be a good idea to condense the info about the patent foramen into about 3-4 sentences and link over to patent foramen ovalis instead. -- Kerowyn Leave a note 05:30, 3 June 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading
File:Zombistan.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a
claim of fair use. However, it is currently
orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed.
You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see
our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the " my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot ( talk) 04:04, 29 July 2012 (UTC)

Hi. I took note well of your remarks.
I do not want to enter in conflict with you. I will re-examine point by point my modifications, and will try to shorten my entries (even if I tend to writing always too much !).
You must simply know, regarding your comment about my information not contained in citations (a remark that will be fair for several other entries, I know) : before contributing to Wikipedia, I collected a lot of information for me, but I rarely recorded my sources, web pages that I can not find thereafter. So, often what I say is true, but I can not prove it ...
In particular on the case of São Francisco de Assis, I swear that I invented nothing: it is really a prisoner "on leave" returned at her mother (neighbor of the school) who raped the girl; I absolutely have to find you the article!
Also, I will try to find the sources proving my claims, to complete our subject. I am going to revise everything, by comparing between my version (that I have copied on "MS Word") and your current text, then, I shall modify your text a point after the other one, rather than to crush everything by pasting the entire mine.
I invite you, on the other hand, to accept my "cutting" of the whole: it delivers "packets" of cases much shorter (usually 12-20, until thirty at worst), which responds better, I think, to the criticism about the length too heavy.
If I find that sometimes you have cut too much text, or that you have deleted entries that I would have kept, or that you have too rounded ages, weight, or height, I admit that you have done an excellent job of rewriting and grammar correction, inspired and useful.
As I noted on my "talk page", I am French, and I do not speak well English. So thank you for having "swept" behind me. If, in the future, I can transmit you the next cases that I will find for translation, it would probably be better...
I see that you've also invested yourself a lot for this page, and I hope that we can work together rather than against each other. I will work on the French version (in my language !) of this subject, as you advised it to me, and, for the English version, I shall confide you to complete it for me with the data which I shall find.
I had not dared to discuss with you, and I passed by the strength. I regret it… Let's collaborate !

Pleasure meeting you this afternoon, and thanks for the help with the speculative fiction article (it's far better now). Had I my wits about me at the time I would have asked for copyediting help at Parable of the Sunfish, so let me remedy that now. I tend to think of that article in terms of literary theory and philosophy of science, but it's also a fascinating window how biology was taught in this country back in the day. Should you have time and interest I'd appreciate any comments you might have.

Hi Prof. Squirrel. I edited your vector.js to update you to the latest version of TemplateScript (but I left it commented out since it already was). You were using a much older version called regex menu framework, so the main difference you'll see is an improved regex editor and cleaner custom scripts. I also adjusted your TemplateScript scripts so they do what I think you meant them to do. Let me know if you re-enable it and something breaks. :) — Pathoschild 03:06, 09 August 2015 (UTC)

I note your edit to fastest animals, where you converted imperial to metric units, with the comment changed units to metric as per MOS:UNITS, and bc km/h (when a whole number) is more precise than mph.
Making the units consistent was good, but increasing the precision introduced many errors, in the form of false precision.
Many of the original values were clearly approximations to the nearest 5 mph, where "55 mph" implies that the true (but unknown) value is somewhere between 52.5 mph and 57.5 mph.
In contrast "88.5 km/h" implies that the true value is (at worst) somewhere between 88.25 and 88.75 km/h (between 54.8 and 55.15 mph), or about 16× more accurate than was originally claimed.
It could also be read as implying that the true value is between 88.45 and 88.55 km/h (54.96 and 55.02 km/h), which would be 80× more accurate than the original.
A better way (to put Metric values first) would be to add |order=flip to the convert macro and leave the other values intact. It's also appropriate to reduce the implied precision by using the |sigfig= parameter.
I invite you to review your changes after reading false precision.

Guild of Copy Editors January 2012 backlog elimination drive
Greetings from the
Guild of Copy Editors
January 2012 Backlog elimination drive! Here is your end-of-drive wrap-up newsletter. Participation 45 people signed up for this drive this time; of these, 35 participated. This is similar to the number of editors who helped out in November. Thanks to all who participated! Barnstars will be distributed in the near future. Progress report Recent drives have been focusing on the oldest three months in the backlog. During this drive we were successful in eliminating our target months—July, August, and September 2010—from the queue, and there are less than 300 articles remaining from 2010. End-of-drive results and barnstar information can be found here. When working on the backlog, please keep in mind that there are options other than copy editing available; some articles may be candidates for deletion, or may not be suitable for copy editing at this time for other reasons. The {{ GOCEreviewed}} tag can be placed on any article you find to be totally uneditable, and you can nominate for deletion any that you discover to be copyright violations or completely unintelligible. If you need help deciding what to do, please contact any of the coordinators. Thank you for participating in the January 2012 drive! All contributions are appreciated. Our next copy edit drive will be in March. Your drive coordinators – The Utahraptor talk, S Masters ( talk), Diannaa ( Talk), Stfg ( Talk), Sp33dyphil ( talk), and Dank ( talk) |

Guild of Copy Editors March 2012 backlog elimination drive update
Greetings from the
Guild of Copy Editors
March 2012 Backlog elimination drive! Here's the mid-drive newsletter. Participation: We have had 58 people sign up for this drive so far, which compares favorably with our last drive, and 27 have copy-edited at least one article. If you have signed up but have not yet copy-edited any articles, please consider doing so. Every bit helps! If you haven't signed up yet, it's not too late. Join us! Progress report: Our target of completing the 2010 articles has almost been reached, with only 56 remaining of the 194 we had at the start of the drive. The last ones are always the most difficult, so thank you if you are able to help copy-edit any of the remaining articles. We have reduced the total backlog by 163 articles so far. Special thanks: Special thanks to Stfg, who has been going through the backlog and doing some preliminary vetting of the articles—removing copyright violations, doing initial clean-up, and nominating some for deletion. This work has helped make the drive a more pleasant experience for all our volunteers.

Special acknowledgement goes out to Lfstevens, who did over 200 articles, most of them in the last third of the drive, and topped all three leaderboard categories. You're a superstar! Stfg and others have been pre-checking the articles for quality and conformance to Wikipedia guidelines; some have been nominated for deletion or had some preliminary clean-up done to help make the copy-edit process more fun and appealing. Thanks to all who helped get those nasty last few articles out of the target months. Progress report During this drive we were successful in eliminating our target months—October, November, and December 2010—from the queue, and have now eliminated all the 2010 articles from our list. We were able to complete 500 articles this month! End-of-drive results and barnstar information can be found here.

Hola,
I noticed that you are also editing the fossa ovalis article. I was thinking, quite a lot of the article talks about patent foramen ovale, which already has an article. Perhaps it would be a good idea to condense the info about the patent foramen into about 3-4 sentences and link over to patent foramen ovalis instead. -- Kerowyn Leave a note 05:30, 3 June 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading
File:Zombistan.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a
claim of fair use. However, it is currently
orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed.
You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see
our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the " my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot ( talk) 04:04, 29 July 2012 (UTC)

Hi. I took note well of your remarks.
I do not want to enter in conflict with you. I will re-examine point by point my modifications, and will try to shorten my entries (even if I tend to writing always too much !).
You must simply know, regarding your comment about my information not contained in citations (a remark that will be fair for several other entries, I know) : before contributing to Wikipedia, I collected a lot of information for me, but I rarely recorded my sources, web pages that I can not find thereafter. So, often what I say is true, but I can not prove it ...
In particular on the case of São Francisco de Assis, I swear that I invented nothing: it is really a prisoner "on leave" returned at her mother (neighbor of the school) who raped the girl; I absolutely have to find you the article!
Also, I will try to find the sources proving my claims, to complete our subject. I am going to revise everything, by comparing between my version (that I have copied on "MS Word") and your current text, then, I shall modify your text a point after the other one, rather than to crush everything by pasting the entire mine.
I invite you, on the other hand, to accept my "cutting" of the whole: it delivers "packets" of cases much shorter (usually 12-20, until thirty at worst), which responds better, I think, to the criticism about the length too heavy.
If I find that sometimes you have cut too much text, or that you have deleted entries that I would have kept, or that you have too rounded ages, weight, or height, I admit that you have done an excellent job of rewriting and grammar correction, inspired and useful.
As I noted on my "talk page", I am French, and I do not speak well English. So thank you for having "swept" behind me. If, in the future, I can transmit you the next cases that I will find for translation, it would probably be better...
I see that you've also invested yourself a lot for this page, and I hope that we can work together rather than against each other. I will work on the French version (in my language !) of this subject, as you advised it to me, and, for the English version, I shall confide you to complete it for me with the data which I shall find.
I had not dared to discuss with you, and I passed by the strength. I regret it… Let's collaborate !

Pleasure meeting you this afternoon, and thanks for the help with the speculative fiction article (it's far better now). Had I my wits about me at the time I would have asked for copyediting help at Parable of the Sunfish, so let me remedy that now. I tend to think of that article in terms of literary theory and philosophy of science, but it's also a fascinating window how biology was taught in this country back in the day. Should you have time and interest I'd appreciate any comments you might have.

Hi Prof. Squirrel. I edited your vector.js to update you to the latest version of TemplateScript (but I left it commented out since it already was). You were using a much older version called regex menu framework, so the main difference you'll see is an improved regex editor and cleaner custom scripts. I also adjusted your TemplateScript scripts so they do what I think you meant them to do. Let me know if you re-enable it and something breaks. :) — Pathoschild 03:06, 09 August 2015 (UTC)

I note your edit to fastest animals, where you converted imperial to metric units, with the comment changed units to metric as per MOS:UNITS, and bc km/h (when a whole number) is more precise than mph.
Making the units consistent was good, but increasing the precision introduced many errors, in the form of false precision.
Many of the original values were clearly approximations to the nearest 5 mph, where "55 mph" implies that the true (but unknown) value is somewhere between 52.5 mph and 57.5 mph.
In contrast "88.5 km/h" implies that the true value is (at worst) somewhere between 88.25 and 88.75 km/h (between 54.8 and 55.15 mph), or about 16× more accurate than was originally claimed.
It could also be read as implying that the true value is between 88.45 and 88.55 km/h (54.96 and 55.02 km/h), which would be 80× more accurate than the original.
A better way (to put Metric values first) would be to add |order=flip to the convert macro and leave the other values intact. It's also appropriate to reduce the implied precision by using the |sigfig= parameter.
I invite you to review your changes after reading false precision.
