Dr. Ijima (1861–1921)

• ... that Ijima's leaf warbler is named after Japanese zoologist Ijima Isao (pictured)? Source: Original description states "Dr I. Ijima", the offline source confirming the identification
  • Reviewed: Template:Did you know nominations/Italian Renaissance sculpture
  • Comment: I shall be expanding the Ijima Isao article in the next few days

General: Article is new enough and long enough

Policy compliance:

• Adequate sourcing: - This isn't related to the naming of the bird after Isao Ijima, but I am getting some source weirdness when trying to access citation 5, "Identification for Ringers 2: The Genus Phylloscopus." Specifically, I'm getting a security error. I dunno if that's just something on my end, but I figure I should bring it up.--Gen. Quon_[Talk]^{(I'm studying Wikipedia!)} 15:50, 5 June 2022 (UTC)

Hello, the url in question is to a Pennsylvania State University document repository; I'm not getting any error myself (but do sometimes with other sites, depending on what device I use to access them); the link could always be removed, while retaining the source itself?

Odd! I found it here, and it checks out. Feel free to use whatever works best.--Gen. Quon_[Talk]^{(I'm studying Wikipedia!)} 16:24, 5 June 2022 (UTC)

• Neutral: - Again, not pertaining to the naming of the bird after Isao Ijima, but the casual (albeit quoted) use of "race" as a synonym of subspecies seems, on first glance, a bit strange. I can't access source 15 and 5 (see above considering the latter), but I'm curious if "subspecies" could be swapped without changing the meaning, or if "race" is/was the appropriate term to use, given the date this animal was identified.--Gen.

As you say, this is a quote "Ticehurst (1938: 162) regarded this as a race of Ph. coronatus, and it has also been made a race of Ph. occipitalis"; I've just found there's an article here Race (biology) and have changed the link to this instead; it's pretty common in my experience to find the term used as an equivalent to subspecies, at least in slightly less recent literature, so it seems helpful to retain this so that readers not otherwise familiar with the usage become more so; thanks, Maculosae tegmine lyncis (talk) 16:13, 5 June 2022 (UTC)
