Dust Bowl
Added link and changed the name to Lange's name for the image, rather than the Congressional Library's name for it. It is the title of the photo's page, after all.Tag: Visual edit

European polecat
The ferret article calls it likely that they're related, so I'm going to make it uncertain. Might be weasel worded, though, which would be ironic for a mustelid. Feel free to revertTag: Visual edit

Coral sand
Rewrite to use sources that actually still exist and are accurate. It seems like CITES no longer really regulates corals outside of them being listed on Appendix II (along with basically every single species of animal and plant on Earth)Tag: Visual edit

Noongar
Tried to reduce leading language, grammar, bias, so on. I'm not entirely sure on this one, given it has no mentions in the article about him. Someone with better info might want to look into this interesting piece of history.Tag: Visual edit

New Atheism
Weasel words and a biased source. Not sure the book of a Christian intellectual should be a source on the beliefs of atheists, given that the text in question specifically has a reason to mischaracterise atheists. It is, however, an excellent source on the author's opinions on atheism.

Marco Polo
removed "Coal" from the list of "first Western records". Coal is mentioned in several Greek and medieval texts, known variously as anthrakes, pitcoal, and seacoal and is mentioned by a charter of King Henry III and the Greek scientist Theophrastus (c. 371–287 BC). If I am incorrect, please revert.Tag: Visual edit

Herbarium
changed "Carolus Linnaeus" to "Carl Linnaeus", as this is not a Latin article. He is generally referred to as Carl, so I'm writing it down as CarlTag: Visual edit
