  • Full review needed by human reviewer. BlueMoonset (talk) 02:16, 14 August 2016 (UTC)
  • Ah, the dratted Cwmhiraeth is making more work for DYK reviewers, I see :) Articles have all been expanded within the requisite timeframe, are free of copyvios (earwig's bot flags a quote, which is used properly, and is interesting enough that I would not paraphrase it) and neutrally written. They are cited inline to reliable sources. QPQ done, and image is free use (that's a gorgeous image, btw, good find!). My only quibble is with the hook: I think it could be made more interesting. There is certainly potential there: in the phrase "genetic revolution," for example, or in Russel's phrase "been well named after an ocean goddess." Could you take a look, Cwmhiraeth? I'll monitor this, and try and promote tick it ASAP after you address this. Vanamonde (talk) 06:55, 24 August 2016 (UTC)
  • @Vanamonde93: It's difficult to use the Wallace quote for the hook, but I could probably write a bit about the genetic revolution for inclusion in the other two articles. Is ALT1 more interesting? If you think its OK, I will rewrite bits of the articles to suit. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 17:14, 25 August 2016 (UTC)
  • ALT1 ... that the Numfor and Biak paradise kingfishers are island species that have diverged from the common paradise kingfisher (pictured) in a "genetic revolution"?
  • ALT1 is interesting, thanks. Go ahead and update the articles, and I'll tick this. Vanamonde (talk) 09:46, 26 August 2016 (UTC)
  • with ALT1: struck original to avoid confusion. AGF on the Mayr book, for which I cannot access the relevant pages. Vanamonde (talk) 20:08, 26 August 2016 (UTC)
