[edit] Coat of arms

I think some of the stuff you're adding at Coat of arms of Western Australia would be better off at Black Swan. Hesperian 07:43, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

If a material is about "the black swan as a symbol", then it is about "the black swan". Symbology would normally be handled in a separate section in the animal article. Often such a section is entitled "Cultural references", and contains information on emblematic uses, use in logos, appearances on stamps and on money, places named after it, references in popular culture such as TV and music, as so on. See, for example, Emu. You might consider creating a "Cultural references" section in Black Swan, and putting the information in there. Hesperian 11:12, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Black swan

When I looked at the Black Swan article, I was so impressed. I assumed a whole team of editors had been working to get it towards featured article status. I'm surprised that it was all just your work. Well done! :) There's not a whole lot I can do to change it, because it's so good already. Keep up the good work. :) - Mark 15:13, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
