Cloudy catshark

Just letting you know that I have passed the article for GA. There are a few suggestions of fixes, though, that I suggest you read up on here. bibliomaniac15 06:48, 16 December 2010 (UTC)

Good to see you back

I was scrolling down GAN and saw you had listed something. I'm glad to see you're back at it! I've missed stalking your articles. ;) ceranthor 22:04, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

Blotchy shark

At the GA review there's still the unresolved issue about clarifying rows vs series of teeth, please use Rathbone. Remember WP articles must be understood by non-experts as far as possible. --Philcha (talk) 22:16, 24 April 2011 (UTC)

I think this book is very old because I am sure there is not any blacktip in Mediterranean. At the last 20 years; only 1 shark reported in Mediterranean, Italy, there wasn't seen any sharks for the rest. I think my version is more realistic.--Westnest ^message 07:59, 2 June 2011 (UTC)

Both of the sources I gave are dated to 2005. If you want the article to say otherwise you need to provide a recent reliable source (preferably multiple reliable sources) saying so. -- Yzx (talk) 08:26, 2 June 2011 (UTC)

Freshwater Sharks

Wasn't there sightings of a smooth hammerhead in the Indian River, blacktip reef sharks in Malaysian freshwater habitats, finetooth sharks in Texas rivers as well as tiger sharks, daggernose sharks and sandbar sharks in river mouths? I was NOT referring to brackish water sharks AT ALL. I was referring to sharks found in freshwater, plain and simple. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 101.98.128.11 (talk) 05:09, 16 April 2012 (UTC)

River mouths are brackish water habitats, as are many large rivers up to at least the tidal limit. Scientific sources consistently give the only truly freshwater sharks as the bull shark and the Glyphis sharks. Here's one such source: [1], which also talks about sharks in river mouths. -- Yzx (talk) 05:20, 16 April 2012 (UTC)

Your edit at Portuguese dogdish

Hi Yzk. My immeadiate instict was to undo what you did, as you falied to see what I was trying to do and did not bother to leave a note, which be more educational for other editors. My intention was to introduce "of the" for better flow/ style. In the process I absentmindedly switched the order of "family Somniosidae" to "Somniosidae family". Your revert is correct, in terms of biological names (THOUGH it is NOT wrong to say it the other way round and you will find hundreds of cases in the WP), but requires that author being reverted is aware of that (which was not the case here), otherwise you might lust unleash a series of reversals. A short note would have helped. Regards, Rui ''Gabriel'' Correia (talk) 06:17, 21 December 2012 (UTC)

Oophagy

How do you know that manta embryos didn't use their mouths and eat yolk. You state that for goblin shark. LittleJerry (talk) 01:20, 26 April 2013 (UTC)

Because there are no oophagous rays. Oophagy only occurs in three groups of sharks (the Lamniformes, the Pseudocarcharidae, and the tawny nurse shark). -- Yzx (talk) 01:25, 26 April 2013 (UTC)

Well, I'll have that last issue resolved soon. I just need someone at resources to finally post that Mozambique manta thesis. (I lost access to it). LittleJerry (talk) 02:09, 27 April 2013 (UTC)

Okay, now all your concerns are now met. LittleJerry (talk) 21:32, 27 April 2013 (UTC)

Back the subject, do other fish "absorb yolk" in the womb? LittleJerry (talk) 22:46, 5 May 2013 (UTC)

The absorption of yolk for nourishment during embryonic development is the default for all vertebrates (possibly all animals). It's matrotrophy, i.e. additional provisioning by the mother (through uterine secretions or through a placenta) that's the derived condition. -- Yzx (talk) 23:28, 5 May 2013 (UTC)

Sixgill stingray GA review

Hallo, I'm reviewing the article, which I enjoyed. I have made a few comments in the review, with a suggestion on the talk page for a cladogram (drafted, feel free to edit - I deliberately kept it sparse). All the best - Chiswick Chap (talk) 16:29, 12 May 2013 (UTC)

Hallo again, delighted to be able to congratulate you on your --- is it 91st? --- chondrichthyan (not a word I often use on talk pages...) GA. Well done.

I do hope you'll devote some time to reviewing other people's GA candidates; there is no formal quid pro quo as with DYK submissions, but there is a desperate need for people who know the GA ropes, as you certainly do, to join in, keep the queues short, and above all educate the newbies. I wish other areas had anything like the skilled coverage that you've given to the sharks, by the way. Great work. Chiswick Chap (talk) 07:08, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

Natural History Shield

	The Natural History Shield
	For bringing so many shark articles to such a good standard. Well done (and pass it on). Chiswick Chap (talk) 07:13, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

Thanks very much! The thing about reviews is that I don't particularly want to be solely responsible for passing/failing other people's work (and I'm a total nitpicker), which is why I stopped doing DYKs after they started their QPQ requirement. I'm more than happy to do informal reviews if requested. -- Yzx (talk) 07:21, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

My pleasure. What I can say is that since you have self-awareness of your critical skill and nature, as well as of the need not to "bite the newbies", you will certainly be very useful as a reviewer, and you'll find you can "bite your tongue" when necessary. And of course, you can always stop and ask for a Second Opinion! All the best, -- Chiswick Chap (talk) 07:43, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

Goblin shark

You uploaded that pic (File:Mistukurina owstoni museum victoria.jpg) of a goblin shark and added it to the article, and you are pissed that I messed with your edits. I totally understand the feeling, because I'm feeling the same thing right now.

I think my SVG sketch of a goblin shark compared to a human diver is a very useful and relevant image, vividly illustrating the scale of this animal. This sort of diagram appears in lots of other articles on whales and sharks. Go see for yourself. Plenty of precedents.

Your pic is very nice. I've been looking for a good profile photo of a real specimen with jaws retracted. A live underwater shot would be best, but this is good enough. I see that it's validity as a free resource is not yet confirmed. Is it yours? If not, did you get permission from the owner? I do want your pic to appear in the article. Maybe even in the infobox. But I also want my SVG size comparison diagram to appear as well - in the infobox.

I always thought galleries were a nice place to put images which don't fit perfectly into specific sections of the article (I like strong relevance). It looks neater to me. Could you refer to me to the official guideline that discourages this?Kurzon (talk) 15:25, 17 June 2013 (UTC)

I've given my rationale for the image removal at Talk:Goblin shark. For galleries, Wikipedia:Image_use_policy#Image galleries says that galleries should only be included if necessary to explain some aspect of the subject that cannot be accomplished by inline images, which is not the case here. -- Yzx (talk) 15:32, 17 June 2013 (UTC)

Viper dogfish

My GA review follows. Adam Cuerden ^(talk) 10:49, 22 June 2013 (UTC)

GA Review

This review is transcluded from Talk:Viper dogfish/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.

Reviewer: Adam Cuerden (talk · contribs) 10:47, 22 June 2013 (UTC)

Before we start, a bit of advice: If there's a message on your GA candidae's talk page saying there's a copyright violation, it's a good idea to note that the problem is no longer relevant. (And, as the message is four years old in this case, it might be worth archiving it - though given this talk page isn't used much, I can see why you wouldn't do that.)

However, I did a quick comparison of the revisios from the copyright violation page and the current, and there are happily no issues, so, initial worries aside, this review can carry on to a rather more pleasant conclusion.

Now, I do have some issues with this article. I don't think they're quite enough to deny it good article status, but I would strongly encourage fixing these.

1. "Feeding mainly on bony fishes" - the vast majority of fish are bony fishes, so it's not quite clear what the specificity is meant to imply. If what's meant is that it feeds mostly on bony fishes, with the occasional cartilaginous fish, say that, but if it eats things like cephalopods and such, then a lot more clarity should be added.

"Mainly" means that its diet consists mainly of bony fishes. I don't really see the difference between that and "mostly". -- Yzx (talk) 17:05, 22 June 2013 (UTC)

I'm more asking whether "bony" is significant there; specifying "mainly bony fishes" can mean that its diet also includes non-bony fishes (e.g. cartilaginous), or it can mean that it mainly consists of bony fishes, with other sea life in general as the secondary foodstuff. Perhaps I'm overthinking this. Adam Cuerden ^(talk) 20:09, 23 June 2013 (UTC)

1. On the subject of the second paragraph of the lead: it's a bit unfocused. Rearranging the lead into more coherent, flowing paragraphs would vastly improve its readability. Also, the statement that there is insufficient data to evaluate conservation status should probably remain there or be discussed in the article body, not the lead.

The lead's supposed to summarize the article, so that's what I did. Also, the IUCN status is discussed in the article body. -- Yzx (talk) 17:05, 22 June 2013 (UTC)

True, but it could help to rearrange the text a bit, and be a little bit more selective. (Also, I did notice the IUCN status in the article body after I said that, but apparently failed to correct my error completely. Oops. My basic point, though, is that it's in an infobox right next to the lead, so it's not strictly necessary to mention it again if it doesn't add much.) Adam Cuerden ^(talk) 20:09, 23 June 2013 (UTC)

1. The phylogeny and evolution section takes a while to get to the point. It's rather strange to find discussion of the division of a family into clades in an article on a species. The reasoning for this is eventually made clear, but leading off with something like "The position of Trigonognathus within Etmopteridae is unclear." the section gains focus. In fact, I'm going to add that now.

I think that's an improvement, thanks. -- Yzx (talk) 17:05, 22 June 2013 (UTC)

It would be nice to have a picture, but for rare sea animals only discovered in the late 80s, that's far less of a problem than it would be in an article on a readily-accessible species.

So, on the whole, pass, but with caveats. Adam Cuerden ^(talk) 10:47, 22 June 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for the review. -- Yzx (talk) 17:05, 22 June 2013 (UTC)

Milk shark

Hi Yzx,

I have undone your reversion of my edit; I think you must have misunderstood the change. Jordan and Richardson published an illustration of an animal they called Scoliodon walbeehmi. This turns out to be a synonym of Rhizoprionodon acutus. The animal they illustrated is therefore Rhizoprionodon acutus. They did not illustrate "a synonym of the milk shark", nor can I imagine how they could even do that. It simply doesn't make sense. They illustrated a milk shark, albeit under a name that is now deprecated. --Stemonitis (talk) 17:54, 28 October 2013 (UTC)

The caption said that it was an illustration of Scoliodon walbeehmi, which is what it is. I think you're splitting semantic hairs. -- Yzx (talk) 18:02, 28 October 2013 (UTC)
