Thanks for the review. At this point, I feel pretty comfortable submitting it as a FLC. I hope you agree. if you see any other obvious problems, just let me know and I'll try to fix them ASAP. –

  • Serious question –

If the estimated population of a species is "unknown", how do we know it is endangered? What constitutes "endangered"? 77.100.152.137 (talk) 20:21, 19 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

A suggestion

If you can switch rows and columns of historical membership table, you might be able to eliminate horizontal scrolling. Cheers--Chanaka L (talk) 01:31, 8 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Good idea. I will add it to my short list of things to do over the next few days. –

2012–2014 list

The new 2012–2014 list has been released. I am in the process of moving for a new job, but once I'm settled, I will update the article. – Maky « talk » 14:58, 16 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It's taken me a while, but the list has been updated. I never saw the 2010–2012 list, and can't find it in web searches either. I have asked Anthony Rylands at Conservation International for help on this matter. – Maky « talk » 18:17, 21 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

2016-2018 list

The 2016–2018 list was published in December 2017. It looks like there have been a lot of changes, e.g. most of the Madagascar species on the list have changed.   Jts1882 | talk  18:00, 5 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This needs to be updated

So, why hasn't this article actually been updated for '19-'21? Are the lists not actually available to the public, or have they really not changed? It doesn't look like this has been updated since 2018(?), at least as far as the actual lists go. Vdbhi (talk) 18:40, 7 January 2022 (UTC)vdbhi[reply]
