As of Sept 1, 2012, the page is horrendously written: presumably edited by someone with a very limited grasp on English grammar and spelling. Additionally, it contains a great deal of superfluous nonsense regarding the required gauge of wire to be used in breeding cages. I will attempt some edits, but don't have enough time to "fix" this doozy. |

Major copy-edit
Hello,
Based on the maintenance templates on this article that I found on WP:BIRDS, I did some copy-editing of the article. There was (and largely still is) a huuuge amount of information on capitivity with opinions and recommendations on "HOW TO" keep these birds in cages, exhaustive information on different types of diet in capitivity with absolutely no sources cited. I have trimmed these and re-written bits of these. I hope the editor who put it in will take note of the requirements to provide in-text citations for these if they want to add it back. Also, maintain a tone of an encyclopedia and not that of a "HOW TO keep parakeets" manual. prashanthns (talk) 04:54, 16 June 2009 (UTC)
A considerable reversion
On 18 May 2011 I reverted the article to the state it was on 30 April 2011. On 2 May 2011 a huge edit messed up spelling, number formats, and much else. Many edits have been made since then attempting to clean it up. The edit on 2 May 2011 essentially added information on how to care for these birds, and that is not the purpose of Wikipedia. This used to be a professional-looking article, and now it is again. I would apologize for what might look like a heavy-handed reversion, but I see no one who deserves such an apology, and I see no better way to fix this mess.
