Hi! I'll be reviewing this article for the next few days/weeks! I might not to reply that promptly but I'll try to answer any questions after a day or two. starsandwhales (talk) 01:05, 16 March 2021 (UTC)


 * "It is sometimes considered to be a superspecies with the scrub, yellow-crowned and purple-throated euphonias." --> for more information, could you way 'why' it is considered to be a superspecies with these others?
 * Is my explanation sufficient, or does it need more info? MeegsC (talk) 15:31, 7 April 2021 (UTC)
 * I also found a 2020 genetic study that further clarifies this relationship. MeegsC (talk) 15:55, 7 April 2021 (UTC)
 * 8This is really good! Very understandable to someone who doesn't know what these mean! :D starsandwhales (talk) 00:09, 8 April 2021 (UTC)


 * "It is largely allopatric with latter species, though it does overlap in a narrow zone in eastern Venezuela." --> since this just seems to be a wiktionary link, also including the definition of allopatric in the sentence would make it clearer
 * I've reworded this to say "Its range is largely distinct (allopatric) from that of the latter species, overlapping only in a narrow zone in eastern Venezuela." Does that work, or do I need to change it further? MeegsC (talk) 13:34, 7 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Personally I'd do a slight rewording to "Its range is largely distinct, or allopatric, from that of the latter species, overlapping only in a narrow zone in eastern Venezuela." but that's not really necessary.


 * "Females are virtually indistinguishable from female purple-throated euphonias (which have a slight grayish tinge to the upperparts) and both they and immature birds are probably not separable in the field." --> probably according to whom? "probably" isn't a very encyclopedia-y word if you know what I mean
 * I've changed the wording to "not thought to be separable in the field". The reference at the end of the sentence says "probably", but I've made it more "encyclopedia-y". ;) MeegsC (talk) 20:59, 2 April 2021 (UTC)


 * Distribution and habitat section is good
 * Could you find an image of the eggs?
 * Unfortunately, I haven't been able to source a photo or drawing of the eggs. MeegsC (talk) 20:59, 2 April 2021 (UTC)


 * AGF for book sources, the other sources look good
 * Though it isn't necessary, alt text for images would help with accessibility.
 * Done.


 * "It has a circular entrance in the side and is lined with finer material." --> what's an example of finer material?
 * The sources say only "finer materials". Given that they also says the nest is composed of grass and stems, I assume it is finer bits of those materials. MeegsC (talk) 13:47, 7 April 2021 (UTC)


 * Do juveniles have any variation in diet compared to the adults?
 * None of the sources indicate anything about juvenile diet. MeegsC (talk) 20:59, 2 April 2021 (UTC)


 * What are the time frames when these birds mature?
 * I've added the generation length. I can find nothing about when breeding first occurs. I assume it's the summer following the bird's hatching (i.e. when more than 1 year old), but it would be OR to say so. MeegsC (talk) 14:17, 7 April 2021 (UTC)


 * Conservation status looks good
 * , I think I've addressed all of your concerns. MeegsC (talk) 15:59, 7 April 2021 (UTC)

Everything looks good! I'm going to look at everything again tomorrow, but you should be alright. starsandwhales (talk) 00:09, 8 April 2021 (UTC)
