I was not sure if I was supposed to edit your page, but I did a little. I proofread it and found a few spelling errors or a wrong choice of wording. Overall it's looking really good. I like that the information is very detailed. I did not see anything about what they eat so that is some more information you could add. Also, I did not see anything about where they are found. Is that because there have been rare spottings? --Kamskiba (talk) 20:34, 21 March 2016 (UTC)
I don't wish to be critical but when I read it I can't Help but feel like i'm reading a scientific report on the species more than a wikipedia article, maybe add a taxo box, what they eat, life history if at all possible, and separate the different sections a bit more so its not all just one thing, like make a separate section for echolocation. Other then that your article seems pretty impressive. Colder68 (talk) 21:55, 24 March 2016 (UTC)
Great edit! A taxobox would make the page more beginner friendly. If you could find some pictures of the whale so readers can get a better idea of what the whale looks like. Do they prefer a certain temperature?Ddseibel (talk) 00:03, 29 March 2016 (UTC)
Response to feedback
[edit]- Fixed spelling
- There is a tiny bit of information about their diet in the Description section (couldn't find more detailed information on it).
- Distribution info is in the Population and Distribution section
- Tried to make some revisions to make it sound a bit less formal
- I didn't copy over the taxobox because it's already present on the existing wikipedia page (being lazy).
- There doesn't seem to be much life history available on this species (I seriously think I might have read every existing article on pygmy killer whales).
- I'll contemplate adding other sections. I originally had an anatomy section, but since the only anatomy I had to discuss was the auditory system, it seemed somewhat pointless. But maybe a Hearing and Echolocation section.
