== [[A Elbereth Gilthoniel]] ==
What exactly makes Laura Bishop noteworthy but not Moongates Guardian? Granted, it is an obscure genre, but it can be verified and is relevant to the article.
I can't even find the version by Laura Bishop... (unsigned cmt 16:19, 16 April by 2024‎ 2a0a:a549:f2d8:0:c803:bb67:d278:3fae)

MG appears not to have attracted any reviews for this album, let alone for the song. What is done with other stuff may be right or wrong but is not relevant to the MG issue. [[User:Chiswick Chap|Chiswick Chap]] ([[User talk:Chiswick Chap#top|talk]]) 17:56, 16 April 2024 (UTC)

== Rice and Fish in the Philippines ==

Hi Chiswick Chap, saw you had nominated [[Rice-fish system]] at GAN. In some work I've been doing offline I have found a bit on the Philippines which may be of interest, including a few paragraphs on history<ref name="FAOOpportunities">{{cite book |title=Rural Aquaculture in the Philipines |url=https://www.fao.org/3/x6943e/x6943e06.htm |author=Wilfredo G.

== [[Bioluminescence]] ==

Hiya, I see that you brought [[Bioluminescence]] up to GA status. I was thinking about updating the article with information from a recent study, "[https://royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rspb.2023.2626 Evolution of bioluminescence in Anthozoa with emphasis on Octocorallia]."

The study would change the lede slightly: "evidence that bioluminescence has arisen over 40 times" to "evidence that bioluminescence has arisen over 100 times." It would also impact the evolution section substantially. I wanted to see if you had any thoughts on the study's importance.

Best, -- [[User:Classicwiki|Classicwiki]] ([[User talk:Classicwiki|talk]])<span style="font-size:85%;">&nbsp;If you reply here, please [[WP:ECHO|ping me]].</span> 17:45, 25 April 2024 (UTC)

: {{u|Classicwiki}} That's a very new paper! Haddock is among the authors, so it has a good pedigree. Ideally we'd choose a (systematic) review article for such a major change, rather than relying on a single research article, but the work has much of the nature of a review so I think we can trust it for the number of occurrences. Your "substantially" isn't much to go on for what may need to be done to the evolution section; I hope any changes will be conservative and consist mainly of additions.

Animals

If you think there should be no new stuff in Animals, maybe rather delete the stuff that is actually no really relevant, such as the section on "Historically, Aristotle divided animals ...." -- because that doesn't say anything of importance to animal biology or use. Peteruetz (talk) 17:08, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Many thanks for discussing. The point is, rather, that the subject of 'Animal' encyclopedically consists of the history of human understanding of animals, the taxonomy and evolution of animals, the biology of animals, and so on. That, like it or not, is the subject. Biology is one aspect of that, not the totality. All the best, Chiswick Chap (talk) 17:39, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
