Comments from Crisco
Hi Jim, sorry it took me so long to get back to you on this... had a bout of the flu. Very ready for GAC, although I am not familiar enough with the topic area to talk about FAC. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 06:31, 27 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Dendrocygna is derived from the Ancient Greek dendron ... - Except you just mentioned the initial name as Anas bicolor, and have not discussed dendrocygna yet
 * maximum known age is 6·5 years - ? Do you mean 6.5 or 5 to 6?
 * Done  Jimfbleak -  talk to me?  06:40, 27 March 2014 (UTC)

In Popular Culture section suggestion
This specific species is mentioned somewhat at length in an episode of Stargate SG-1. Not sure if this is significant enough. http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Recap/StargateSG1S10E5Uninvited — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.9.218.11 (talk) 17:18, 26 March 2018 (UTC)

Inclusion of Category: Breeds of Ducks reverted
I noted that this page did not have the category Breeds of Ducks that is present on other Duck pages and added it. I note that the category was removed. Might there be a reason why? Should that category be removed from the other Duck pages? Tigey (talk) 09:10, 28 March 2018 (UTC)
 * I reverted your edit because Category:Duck_breeds is for domesticated and human-selected "breeds" - this is a wild species that is not kept by poulterers/duck-breeders/duck-farmers. Shyamal (talk) 09:18, 28 March 2018 (UTC)
