Dromornis stirtoni

Hi. I have been working on this article recently and noticed your changes. There were some errors in formatting and breaking citation code, too many to unpick from the rest of your contributions. I did see many improvements in your changes, and am happy to assist you in adding those to the article. You can reply at Talk:Dromornis stirtoni or here. ~ cygnis insignis 10:37, 13 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, when you made these edits, you restored errors that had already been corrected, e.g. stirtoni starts with a lower-case letter, we don't use "curly quotes" in the English Wikipedia. I appreciate that you are a new editor, and there's a lot to learn, but do please review immediately previous edits carefully before you edit an article. As it happens, it's probably not worth more edits to Dromornis stirtoni at present, because the general policy for extinct species is to discuss them at the genus article, and there's a merge discussion going on.
