Talk:Rainbow pitta

Not a review, just some comments

Just a (some possible in the future) comment here, not a formal review.

• You aren't using singular consistently. For example, you start off a sentence saying "Rainbow pittas..." Stuff like "the chicks" is fine, though, just as long as you don't refer to the species as a whole using the plural. RileyBugz^会話_投稿記録 19:51, 20 July 2017 (UTC)

• You may want to wikilink words like "passerine"   User:Dunkleosteus77 |push to talk  04:26, 27 July 2017 (UTC)

• "bird in the pitta family Pittidae," should "piyta" be wikilinked to Pitta?   User:Dunkleosteus77 |push to talk  04:26, 27 July 2017 (UTC)

• Linked. Sabine's Sunbird talk 05:56, 27 July 2017 (UTC)

• Make sure to follow "International Union for Conservation of Nature" with "(IUCN)"   User:Dunkleosteus77 |push to talk  04:26, 27 July 2017 (UTC)

• Done. Sabine's Sunbird talk 05:56, 27 July 2017 (UTC)

• "that arrangement wasn't universally accepted" does that mean it's universally accepted now?   User:Dunkleosteus77 |push to talk  04:26, 27 July 2017 (UTC)

• It wasn't, and the next sentence shows a different relationship. Sabine's Sunbird talk 05:56, 27 July 2017 (UTC)

• I fixed the grammar (also, before submitting for GA, you may want to read it aloud or simply articulate the words to better catch grammatical errors), but remember to be a little more lenient in wikilinking. If fifth grade you didn't know it, link it (unless you were a genius in fifth grade, then second grade you)   User:Dunkleosteus77 |push to talk  04:26, 27 July 2017 (UTC)

• I took a long break and when I came back wikilinking was done a lot les than it used to be, still working out where it should be. Sabine's Sunbird talk 05:56, 27 July 2017 (UTC)

• Remember to place a comma to separate the subject and the predicate of a sentence   User:Dunkleosteus77 |push to talk  04:26, 27 July 2017 (UTC)
• File:Pitta iris distribution.png doesn't have a source line (as in it may be WP:OR). You can either find a source (like at the Redlist) or place a {{source needed}} tag   User:Dunkleosteus77 |push to talk  04:26, 27 July 2017 (UTC)

• Sourced. Sabine's Sunbird talk 05:56, 27 July 2017 (UTC)

• the source for File:Pitta iris.jpg is a deadlink   User:Dunkleosteus77 |push to talk  04:26, 27 July 2017 (UTC)

• Ugh. I think we need a bot to verify images so that this doesn't happen when they go offline. Sabine's Sunbird talk 05:56, 27 July 2017 (UTC)

• Use this converter to convert ISBN-10 to ISBN-13 as per WP:ISBN

• Done. Sabine's Sunbird talk 05:56, 27 July 2017 (UTC)

• last thing, you keep switching from singular to plural (like you say "The rainbow pitta..." and then you say "They..."), be consistent   User:Dunkleosteus77 |push to talk  16:48, 27 July 2017 (UTC)

• Should be fixed - I left plurals when referring to pairs, eggs and chicks and nests in some contexts. Sabine's Sunbird talk 18:51, 27 July 2017 (UTC)
