You've got to be fast... I'm claiming this review now, and will be offering comments tomorrow or within a few days. Ucucha 04:41, 21 January 2011 (UTC)
Okay, one for today: "N. bengalensis is considered the least well-known of the five slow loris species". I can't find this in the source cited, and it sounds unlikely to me (do we really know less about this relatively widespread species than about N. pygmaeus or N. menagensis?).

Explain "brachial gland" in lead.
How does this species differ from N. coucang? Groves (2001) almost certainly covers this.
- I'm not sure the taxonomy section will be entirely clear to a lay reader.
The "Distribution" section says it occurs in the Garo Hills in Bangladesh, but Garo Hills says the hills are located in Meghalaya, India.
- Perhaps expand the "Distribution" section to include information about the places where its range meets that of related species (i.e., N. pygmaeus in Cambodia and southern Vietnam and N. coucang around the Isthmus of Kra).
- I'm not sure if I've seen any sources discuss this. I'd be glad to include this information, as long as it doesn't violate talk » 01:10, 22 January 2011 (UTC)]
- Pan et al. (2007) has some relevant discussion; Groves (2001) probably has too. Ucucha 01:22, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

Lead says middle-class women use it; body says wealthy to middle-class
- In ref. 21 (Red List account), italicize "Nycticebus bengalensis" and de-italicize "Version 2010.4"
- Italics added, the version italics is a template issue... so I'll let VH get that. Sasata (talk) 15:38, 21 January 2011 (UTC)
- Regardless of which IUCN template is used, it puts the "version" in the {{talk » 23:52, 21 January 2011 (UTC)]
- Regardless of the underlying templates, I don't see any good reason to italicize the version. However, there is of course no GA criterion about italicizing references, so I won't hold up the GAN on this issue. Ucucha 23:58, 21 January 2011 (UTC)
- True... one of the catches of using templates. However, given that numerous biota articles have passed FAC using these same IUCN templates, I guess it's best to just let it slide for now. If someone finds a better way to do this, I'll be fine with the change. – talk » 00:09, 22 January 2011 (UTC)]

Thanks for the fixes; I'll pass the article now. Ucucha 18:59, 23 January 2011 (UTC)
