Branisella
This extinct genus is included in Category:New World monkeys as "†Branisella", which means that it gets indexed in the category under "†". This seems odd to me, and I was going to change it, but it occurred to me that this might be intentional, so I thought this would be a good place to ask. I observe that Noropithecus is not indexed that way in Category:Old World monkeys
RfC on the Ham and Enos photos on the Chimpanzee page
There is an RfC concerning the images of Ham and Enos at Talk:Chimpanzee#Space chimp which may be of interest. Randy Kryn (talk) 03:27, 10 June 2021 (UTC)

User script to detect unreliable sources
I have (with the help of others) made a small user script to detect and highlight various links to unreliable sources and predatory journals. Some of you may already be familiar with it, given it is currently the 39th most imported script on Wikipedia. The idea is that it takes something like
- John Smith "Article of things" Deprecated.com. Accessed 2020-02-14. (
John Smith "[https://www.deprecated.com/article Article of things]" ''Deprecated.com''. Accessed 2020-02-14.
)
and turns it into something like
- John Smith "Article of things" Deprecated.com. Accessed 2020-02-14.
It will work on a variety of links, including those from {{cite web}}, {{cite journal}} and {{doi}}.
The script is mostly based on WP:RSPSOURCES, WP:NPPSG and WP:CITEWATCH and a good dose of common sense. I'm always expanding coverage and tweaking the script's logic, so general feedback and suggestions to expand coverage to other unreliable sources are always welcomed.
Do note that this is not a script to be mindlessly used, and several caveats apply. Details and instructions are available at User:Headbomb/unreliable. Questions, comments and requests can be made at User talk:Headbomb/unreliable.

Updated primates article
Hey there, I have added a lot of information onto a primates article White-nosed saki. I went to the assessments portal to request a re-assessment but have seen there haven't been any new posts since 2021, so I wasn't sure if the portal was still active. I was wondering where I could go about getting a new assessment done on this updated article? It is currently sitting as a 'stub' but I would love for someone to check it out and reassess it if possible. Vikster28 (talk) 06:36, 12 May 2022 (UTC)
- I would also love to receive a peer review but when I go to type in my article name into the provided template, it tells me it doesn't exist. How would I go about getting a peer review? I'd appreciate any help since I'm not sure why it didn't work. Vikster28 (talk) 07:06, 12 May 2022 (UTC)
- @Vikster28:, I've reassessed it as B-class. This (or WikiProject Mammals) are the best places to request a reassessment. Very few people watch the reassessment portals. I'm not sure why the peer review request didn't work; you were following the instructions at Wikipedia:Peer review/guidelines? Plantdrew (talk) 20:41, 12 May 2022 (UTC)
