Talk:Zapata rail

Reliable sources, authority references, original research
The current binomial name of this rail is sourced only to the original description, leaving its name unreferenced in this article. The original description may be useful for some aspects of the article, as its usage after the authoerity in the taxobox, for example. However, an organism's name ia not today defined by the original authority, but by the body of taxonomic literature about the organism. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a body of taxonomic experts, a review article or bird book, sufficiently recent, with the authority would be appropriate. Eau (talk) 02:17, 25 September 2012 (UTC)

Image Problem
I'm not so sure the image that was just added is PD. See https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Copyright_rules_by_territory#United_States The problem is that we don't know what work it was published in in 1928 and if it was renewed. This definitely isn't PD because of life+70 years.
