 * Symbol question.svg Hi Enwebb, review follows: article created 13 February; article is of good length; article is well written and cited throughout to reliable sources; there are no apparent copyright violations; no QPQ required due to being the user's first DYK nomination; hook is interesting and cited to source. However I think the hook should state "most extreme range of body temperature" of any known mammal, in line with the source.  Let me know what you think - Dumelow (talk) 00:59, 14 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Hi, thank you for your suggestion. I agree that the wording should be modified for clarity, and have changed this in the article. Also, I'm new to this forum, so please advise if I should go ahead and make this change in the template or let it stand for the review process. Enwebb (talk) 01:09, 14 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Thanks Enwebb, I see you have been writing some great articles - keep it up! Feel free to make the change to the hook above and then I can pass it for inclusion on the mainpage.  Cheers - Dumelow (talk) 01:16, 14 February 2018 (UTC)
