You've got to be fast... I'm claiming this review now, and will be offering comments tomorrow or within a few days. Ucucha 04:41, 21 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Okay, one for today: "N. bengalensis is considered the least well-known of the five slow loris species". I can't find this in the source cited, and it sounds unlikely to me (do we really know less about this relatively widespread species than about N. pygmaeus or N. menagensis?).

  • Explain "brachial gland" in lead.
  • How does this species differ from N. coucang? Groves (2001) almost certainly covers this.
  • I'm not sure the taxonomy section will be entirely clear to a lay reader.
  • The "Distribution" section says it occurs in the Garo Hills in Bangladesh, but Garo Hills says the hills are located in Meghalaya, India.
  • I think that's an error in the original source. I've removed the mention of Garo Hills, as the paragraph previously indicates that it's in Meghalaya, India (where the Garo Hills are located). Sasata (talk) 16:26, 21 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • In ref. 21 (Red List account), italicize "Nycticebus bengalensis" and de-italicize "Version 2010.4"
  • Regardless of the underlying templates, I don't see any good reason to italicize the version. However, there is of course no GA criterion about italicizing references, so I won't hold up the GAN on this issue. Ucucha 23:58, 21 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • True... one of the catches of using templates. However, given that numerous biota articles have passed FAC using these same IUCN templates, I guess it's best to just let it slide for now. If someone finds a better way to do this, I'll be fine with the change. – VisionHolder « talk » 00:09, 22 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'm starting a list (below) for potential sources that still need to be reviewed/incorporated before a FAC run. – VisionHolder « talk » 09:04, 22 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
