Re.: Split/merge needed for mammal species lists
Hi, the "tab style" of the page will be maintained in the future split? Burmeister (talk) 19:42, 29 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Do you mean the table? I think you can decide on the layout of the page, I would leave the same formatting. Cheers, Jack (talk) 10:15, 4 October 2016 (UTC)

Primate taxonomy
Hi jack. I see you have been less active recently than you used to be. I left a long note on the primate talk page about our primate taxonomy, on which I would like your feedback. We have long used Groves (2005) as our basic source for primate taxonomy, but I think that developments over the past 10-15 years have left this reference far behind, which even Groves acknowledges. We have slowly and somewhat haphazardly updated our primate taxonomy as new research has been published, but I think it is time to acknowledge that we need a new primary source. My preference would be to use Mittermeier, et al (2013) Handbook of the Mammals of the World, volume 3, but I could see using Rowe, et al (2016) All the World's Primates if there is a consensus for that, or there may be another possible source I am not aware of. In any case I would like to get your feedback on this, and the resulting changes that could be necessary (e.g., revising common names). Rlendog (talk) 18:23, 6 January 2019 (UTC)

So great to hear you're still working on the primates pages! I've not had the time in the last few years unfortunately but I am currently filming for a three-part BBC series on primates, hopefully you'll be able to check it out. I am using Mammals of the World 3 as my reference text, it's a great book and would be my recommendation however it's already six years old. I would recommend emailing some primatologists and see what their consensus is. Keep up the good work. Jack (talk) 01:10, 15 January 2019 (UTC)

Dedcember 2020: Your interesting take on copyediting
Some of your recent edits, such as to [Macaque], have me puzzled. Making things more confusing is the lack of any explanation on your part. Would you be so kind as to explain the flaws in these edits of mine? Thank you.--Quisqualis (talk) 15:24, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
 * My mistake on your first edit, I thought you had removed the closing bracket on the species name, which you left without correcting. The second edit was a link to a redirect. I've reverted another of your edits because you've removed the link to a technical term on its first appearance in the main text. Cheers, Jack (talk) 10:17, 30 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Please note that the term "Old World monkeys" appears, linked (to an article, not to a redirect), in the lead of Macaque. This is getting frustrating.--Quisqualis (talk) 23:56, 4 January 2021 (UTC)
 * As per MOS:REPEATLINK the term is linked as a technical term in its first instance after the lead. Cheers, Jack (talk) 15:08, 6 January 2021 (UTC)

Schneider's marmoset
How come that Schneider's marmoset, shortly to appear on the main page as a DYK, has a dental formula of but apparently has 36 permanent teeth? Nice article, by the way. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 05:24, 7 October 2021 (UTC)


 * Because maths isn't my strong suit it seems! Thanks for spotting, I've corrected it to 32. Cheers, Jack (talk) 09:33, 7 October 2021 (UTC)
