Review by Quadell

 * Coverage and factuality: 8
 * Many sources, inline refs, no obvious gaps in coverage, but refs should be standardized
 * Writing style: 8
 * Really good. But it jumps around a little too much.
 * Structure: 8
 * Well organized.
 * Aesthetics: 7
 * Just fine, but nothing outstanding
 * Overall: 8

Review by violet/riga

 * Coverage and factuality: 6
 * Not enough details about the animal itself, tending to focus instead on its extinction. There are some commented references but it is generally poorly done.


 * Writing style: 6
 * Some poor writing, particularly at the start of paragraphs.


 * Structure: 6
 * The sections seem to overlap in places and could do with being rewritten.


 * Aesthetics: 7
 * Somewhat top-heavy, but the images are very good.


 * Overall: 6

This could be an interesting article, but is rather poorly organised at the moment. violet/riga (t) 20:41, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

Review by HereToHelp

 * Coverage and factuality: 5
 * Could use more sources, non-inlined references, a bunch of comments tags that would be useful in footnotes.


 * Writing style: 9
 * Nothing stands out but it isn't exeptional either.


 * Structure: 8
 * The article flows okay, but again, it needs work to go far.


 * Aesthetics: 7
 * Two images. One's a drawing and the other's black and white. Though there's good reason for that, a map of their former range, and perhaps showing a few other points in the article, would be nice.


 * Overall: 7
 * Like most things I've assessed, the references are the weakest link.
