Changes look good
[edit]I've got some questions though. Are you going to add the "Khmer name"? If so, that makes sense, otherwise I wasn't sure what that heading was for.
Also, there's some confusion that comes with having the authority name in parentheses. According to zoological standards, "The parentheses around the author citation indicate that this was not the original taxonomic placement". That's from Author citation (zoology). So having them all in parentheses indicates the taxonomic placement has been changed since the original description and I suspect that's not the case. I'm not a biologist, so I may be explaining that wrong.
Thanks and keep up the good work. SchreiberBike | ⌨ 19:21, 2 October 2022 (UTC)
- OK thanks for the advice @SchreiberBike: ... I'll fix the parentheses around the authority names; wasn't aware of that standard. Also I've got a Cambodian-language mammal field guide somewhere but can't find it--might remove that heading for the time being. Can you direct me to the standard of how Orders & Families are ordered in lists such as these? I just followed what existed before. PhnomPencil (talk) 19:29, 2 October 2022 (UTC)
- @PhnomPencil: Good news. I figured you had a plan for the Khmer names, but wanted to be sure. I'm not aware of a standard ordering. If I were doing one from scratch I'd probably follow Mammal#McKenna/Bell classification where it says "Class Mammalia", though I'm no expert. Take care. SchreiberBike | ⌨ 20:32, 2 October 2022 (UTC)
