Talk:Iberian Lynx

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


Most modern books, articles and scientific papers refer to the species as "Iberian lynx".

I've updated this page, reducing the numbers of lynx left in the wild and adding three external links monitoring the situation, as well as a Spanish news report about the birth of cubs in captivity for the first time. It's my first edit so suggestions are welcome. --uhforja 18:46, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Change of external link

Substituted report in Spanish from one in English.--uhforja 10:51, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Requested move

Spanish lynx → Iberian lynx - Iberian lynx is currently the vernacular name recognized by specialists and the most used in modern texts. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Alytes (talk • contribs) 30 June 2005, 21:36 (UTC).

[edit] Discussion

Are you sure you don't mean to move: Spanish Lynx → Iberian Lynx (and appropriate updating of redirects). Wikipedia is case sensitive. Also see Wikipedia:Naming conventions (fauna). I have no opinion of whether this move should happen. Vclaw 1 July 2005 16:43 (UTC

Not that it really matters or anything, but could you provide a few trustworthy sources for the name Iberian Lynx? Just for proof's sake. Unless it's not necessary. Bonzi77 03:16, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Clean up! Urgent

  • This article is in need of a radical clean up. There are many spelling and grammatical errors and some subjective observations. I do believe that the Iberian Lynx is beautifull but in an encyclopaedia is unnecesary these type of comments.Francisco Valverde 18:50, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
    • I made an effort to clean up the language used in the article and make it less POV. I also put citation requests in. Hopefully that'll help. Still needs sources--Lendorien 15:38, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
