Taxonomics

The Cockatoo page has a different take on the relative position of Probosiger within Cacatuidae, with a number of newer studies to support it. I've also faulted that page, for failing to cite the older but still valid study cited here.Sbalfour (talk) 22:34, 1 January 2014 (UTC)

Distribution Map

I was wondering why it is that the distribution map only covers the Australian Palm cockatoo and not the species as a whole. I think this is very misleading and if I had not known the actual distribution of the palm cockatoo, I would have thought that the species is an Australian endemic. Since the article isn't about the one subspecies, I think the map should be changed to reflect the genuine distribution (which includes most of New Guinea)as can be seen on the IUCN redlist page: http://maps.iucnredlist.org/map.html?id=22684723 Jubblubs (talk) 17:58, 1 February 2015 (UTC)

See Also

The see also section currently contains references to the Australian Raven - "Australian raven, an unrelated passerine bird, that is also large and black" and the lesser vasa parrot "Black parrot or lesser Vasa parrot, an unrelated species of large black parrot from Madagascar". The only apparent common factor here is the fact that these birds are also black. I fail to see how these references add any value whatsoever to the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 60.240.108.71 (talk) 10:18, 2 February 2015 (UTC)
