Gustave and sourcing
editHi VicLin,
I agree with your edit to Lolong and with the first edit you made to Gustave, but there was a problem with your subsequent edits to Gustave. I'm not sure where you got your information about Gustave being only 30 years old, but after your edits ([1]) it appeared as though the 2004 National Geographic article was the source of that figure. It's crucial that figures used in Wikipedia really do match the cited sources, and whenever you change a figure, you need to make sure you change the source as well. Usually you would only do this if the new source is newer, more reliable, or otherwise superior to the existing source.
