Robert Seyfarth (scientist)

 * ... that according to primatologists Robert Seyfarth and Dorothy Cheney, successful baboons use Jane Austen strategies: "be nice to your relatives and get in with the high-ranking relatives"? Source: University of Delaware Newsletter, 2009.
 * Reviewed: Dipolydora commensalis and Neanthes fucata (1 DYK for 2 articles)
 * Comment: Seyfarth and Cheney were married, lifelong collaborators and distinguished scientists. Cheney (who has had an article since May) recently died, so it would be nice to include her article in the DYK for Seyfarth's, if that is OK.

 * Comment: while Cheney can have a non-bold link in the hook, as her article is neither new nor newly 5x expanded (nor newly listed as a Good Article, a formal process that would take far too long for this nomination and would require further beefing up of the article, I believe, to meet the GA criteria), the link cannot be bolded since the article isn't eligible for DYK. I've adjusted the hook bolding, and removed Jlviegas from the credits since they do not appear to have made any edits to the Seyfarth article. Sorry for the bad news.

 * Symbol confirmed.svg This interesting article is new enough and long enough. The image is appropriately licensed, the hook facts are sourced inline, the article is neutral and I detected no copyright / close paraphrasing issues. A QPQ has been done. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 08:53, 7 January 2019 (UTC)
