Hmm. Needs a bt of work before becoming a GA.
- Is it well written?
- A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct:
- Very nice. reminds me of 2002 Bou'in-Zahra. New FA? :) But there are issues:
- A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct:
- It is a consequence of the late 1980s economic depression in Cameroon. — Consequence? Not the right word.
- Hmm, I don't see the problem, but "result" works just as good. --I'm an Editorofthewiki[citation needed] 20:37, 8 September 2008 (UTC)
- Also, square km (km with 2), unless used in parantheses, needs to be changed to square kilometers.
- Done. --I'm an Editorofthewiki[citation needed] 20:41, 8 September 2008 (UTC)
- Of these, the yellow-bellied form of Stiphrornis erythrothorax is widespread. This needs tweaking, the end of the sentence is very awkward.
- The ending seems fine to me. What exactly is the problem? --I'm an Editorofthewiki[citation needed] 20:48, 8 September 2008 (UTC)

Clean-up
editI've gone through this article fixing the numerous typos and grammatical errors and removing the randomly sprinkled "however" and other redundancy. I couldn't fix The villages around the park are mostly homogeneous as there are few non-natives, mostly working as civil servants or traders since I was not sure whether it was the villagers or the non-natives who were in those occupations. I've changed all the bird links, since using the binomial is inconsistent with the mammals and creates unnecessary redirects. English names should be used anyway for vertebrates. If you wish, you can check the changes. jimfbleak (talk) 06:01, 10 September 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks for your help! I have chaged thesentence to "The villages around the park are mostly homogeneous as there are few non-natives, most of which work as civil servants or traders." Regards --I'm an Editorofthewiki[citation needed] 10:50, 10 September 2008 (UTC)
- Hi, I've changed which to whom since it's referring to people. I had thought of doing the GA for this myself, but decided to review Vogel State Park which had been waiting longer, so that's why I had a quick run through the article. jimfbleak (talk) 11:13, 10 September 2008 (UTC)
