1½ or 1.5?
You've changed "1½ billion" to "1.5 billion" in the red-billed quelea article. Although the source says 1.500.000.000, this exact number is most certainly incorrect. My personal interpretation is that this figure means something between one and two billion. As no uncertainty range has been given, it would be more certain to express this as 1½ billion (meaning anything between 1¼ and 1¾ billion) rather than 1.5 billion (meaning anything between 1.45 and 1.55 billion). To my mind your change is therefore not trivial, and I prefer to change it back. I do not like war however, and rather discus the issue first.
