African Pygmy Elephant

The stub at African Pygmy Elephant is currently undergoing a merge discussion, but I thought it would be better to merge it here. Mermaid from the Baltic Sea 07:49, 3 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I would say merge too! Peter Maas\^talk 12:10, 24 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Indian pygmy elephant

While this did appear in the Indian media - there needs to be a more reliable source than a stray link to a personal website or suchlike. Please see WP:RS. Shyamal (talk) 10:32, 16 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

A news came up yesterday that pygmy elephant is being caught on tape in Kerala. Here is the news source. If this looks authentic, please add the details to the corresponding section. Subin Sebastian (talk) 12:07, 4 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Authentic would be where there is a proper scale with a person next to a captive elephant. Or the video would show the elephant mark a part of the tree and have a person measure it when the elephant moves off and the camera stays in the same position. I think this is just a bunch of images and observations taken out of context and interpreted poorly. At best, this would appear to be a case of an abnormal individual and almost certainly not a species or subspecies. Shyamal (talk) 04:10, 19 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Wording in introduction?

The wording "required to be living......" doesn't make any sense. Surely this should be "reported to be living...." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.226.103.85 (talk) 12:43, 20 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It was vandalism (which had been "undone" in the meanwhile, by introducing a wording that didn't really make sense, either – sheesh). I've reverted back to the original phrasing, which was indeed "reported", not "required". --Florian Blaschke (talk) 13:34, 7 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sabah

I tried to link the word Sabah to the relevant article, since I (and, dare I say it, a large proportion of English speaking users) had never heard of the place, but I couldn't seem to get it to work. Any ideas anyone? --81.23.54.142 (talk) 21:11, 18 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I think I fixed it. --HTO (talk) 22:27, 7 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
