[edit] Improvements

Excellent, this was great from the start! Not only is it informative, but it encourages contributing by showing which articles lack a photograph, map, or size comparison. The only thing it needs now is an introduction that's diffrent from Cetacea's. (I would add this to the peer review, but it hasn't been started yet.) --Gray Porpoise 11:53, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

I've written a short replacement for the introduction at User:Gray Porpoise/Article Draft. If you wish to help expand it so that it is informative but is not identical to that of Cetacea, please do so, but do not drift off-topic. (This is about cetacean species, not blubber!) --Gray Porpoise 04:17, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

I have put that article draft of yours, with a little bit about the characteristics of cetaceans as the introduction. It might be good to have a paragraph on taxonomy, since that is essentially what this article is about. Chris_huh^talk 12:44, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

It looks satisfactory now. --Gray Porpoise 22:15, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
