change intermission to intromission in the Reproduction and Parenting section. 142.113.214.19 (talk) 00:44, 1 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. "intermission" does not appear at all in the article that I can find. In which sentence do you see it? Cannolis (talk) 00:54, 1 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Subspecies[edit]

3 subspecies are listed, but I can find no reference anywhere to "a.m.hastorni".

Unless someone can point to a valid reference, it should be removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.144.30.52 (talk) 15:18, 22 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It looks like that was added by Super Dromaeosaurus with this edit. It's been over five years, but perhaps they can recall where that information was from? —Carter (Tcr25) (talk) 15:54, 22 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
No idea. I probably just copied it from Spanish Wikipedia. The subspecies is listed there too. I am not opposed to its removal. Super Dromaeosaurus (talk) 16:06, 22 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks! Looking at es-wiki, Sahaquiel9102 added the subspecies to the infobox with this edit, but I don't see A.m. hastorni) in the text before or after that addition. —Carter (Tcr25) (talk) 16:31, 22 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I'm going to remove it at this point. es-wiki had a page [for Ailuropoda melanoleuca hastorni that's been deleted three times as vandalism. On en-wiki, this 2017 edit to Ailuropoda removed the mention of A.m. hastorni due to a lack of any sources that didn't seem to trace back to Wikipedia. That same edit shows that the common name being given for that subspecies was "Eastern panda," which doesn't help. zh-wiki gives 云南大熊猫 as the common name, which was added with this edit. That translates to Yunnan giant panda, but the only mentions to a Yunnan panda are connected to a 2015 poaching instance. While that incident showed the pandas to be present in an area where they were previously thought to have been wiped out, there's no indication that they are or were a different subspecies. —Carter (Tcr25) (talk) 16:51, 22 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Maybe they should be removed from the other Wikipedias as well. If it's a legit subspecies, someone should restore it eventually anyway. It's not like this kind of things are so obscure. It's likely a hoax. Super Dromaeosaurus (talk) 23:36, 22 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
 Done Well, I just ran through the full list of sister project articles from the sidebar. Most didn't list subspecies, a lot only had A. m. melanoleuca and A. m. qinlingensis. I removed A. m. hastorni from infoboxes in nine projects (I couldn't remove the tenth instance — zh-wiki, where the page is protected from me editing it). Hopefully the English-language edit comment (or a Google Translate version) will help avoid reverts... I could have missed one or two where the Latin name was rendered in local characters or where the subspeieces information was in a collapsed or otherwise inobvious place. —Carter (Tcr25) (talk) 18:53, 24 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
