I'll review this article (again). I'd like to ensure that there will be someone willing to make fixes and changes before I post a full review. Any takers? Sasata (talk) 15:26, 20 February 2013 (UTC)
- I've not been involved with it before but sure, I'll help out as best as I can. Prioryman (talk) 21:29, 24 February 2013 (UTC)

Comments
- I think the article needs more work to meet the "broad coverage" requirement of WP:WIAGA
- I've added some more citation needed tags to unsourced statements
- the lead is too short and does not currently serve as a good summary of the article's contents
*expanded the lead to better reflect topics covered in the articles main body Andrewkamel (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 03:39, 27 September 2013 (UTC)
- what is its size range and weight range for males and females (more useful than just maximums)? Tail length? Expected lifespan?
- add imperial convert for elevation
- ecology section seems quite short on details compared on other sources, such as the IUCN summary or the NHM
**I added information about ecology and divided the section into Habitat, Diet, and Predators Claire.Edelman (talk) 05:25, 26 September 2013 (UTC)
- where is the taxonomy section? Who described the species and when? Does it have any synonyms? Has there been and phylogenetic (or molecular) analysis that have compared its relationships with other primates?
- any fossil finds of the species? Any info about its evolutionary history?
I am a student at Washington University in St. Louis. I have edited/added to this page answering some of the questions addressed above, unanswered in this article, pertaining to physical aspects and taxonomy. One note, the Barbary Macaque does indeed possess a tail. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Liu.alexander (talk • contribs) 01:21, 27 September 2013 (UTC)
