poorly discussed by the news media) but this article doesn't need to go into gory details. As for conservation status, there's not much that can be said besides the speculations given in the news articles... which are far from authoritative. Anyway, I will be adding a lot more information from the research article when it's published. I have a copy, but I'm not sharing it or citing it until it's published. In the meantime, feel free to develop this as much as you can, but please don't duplicate (or contradict) the "Slow loris" article.

Borneo is not in Indonesia; Borneo is an island shared between several countries including Indonesia. If the entirety of the loris's range is in Indonesia, it does belong in the first paragraph, but this is not the best way to do it. 966:
I have tried to clarify this. It comes from "Table II: Chi-Square and Pair-Wise Comparison Results". I did not add this bit, and I'm not really hot about it because the text does not discuss it much, and in places seems to contradict some of these relationships for the various groups. However, I

Btw, thanks for the suggestions. I wasn't planning on taking it to FAC until more is published, and I do hope to add photos/illustrations, but it depends on what I can get people to release. I'll try to work on the descriptions, but they're simply technical in nature (if you're talking about the

Unfortunately, the source goes no further. It reads: "The observed differences within Bornean lorises may be a result of mate recognition or an anti-predator strategy by deceptively appearing to have larger eyes and larger size." If needed, I could find a source that talks about the strategy in

fine details). We'll see what I can do. Btw, what's wrong with the Huffington Post? Granted, I don't consider *any* news source reliable, and I don't read that news source (or know much about it), but the science article seems pretty sound.

The lack of pictures is a shame. Distribution maps and pictures of closely related species may be good additions. A picture showing the faces of the various species so that the masks can be differentiated would be super
153: 932:"Additionally, N. kayan emerged as a new species, which had previously been overlooked" I assume you mean by this that it was previously considered no different from the nominate subspecies? If so, perhaps say so? 1271: 1200:
Slightly odd one that you've probably thought of, but perhaps best to wait a year or two. Since the recent split, I'd imagine academics are chomping at the bit to get publishing on the subject.
1103:
Sorry, I'm still trying to catch all of these. It was announced in 2012 through a leak to the press, but the publication didn't come out until January 2013. Hopefully I've got them all now.
987:
I'd like to see more of a basic description, rather than jumping quickly into its differences from other species. At least move the sizing information to the first paragraph?
716: 284: 147: 766: 1168:
The edits were great. I'm really sorry... I thought I had proofread the article the night I revised it, but apparently not. I really appreciate the careful review.
1076:
The location was only given for a book, and that has been removed. The same book was also lacking a ISBN, but one is not available. Instead, the OCLC was provided.
799: 1069:
You give the publication location of one journal but not others (probably not required) and give ISBNs for only some of the books (better to give it for all)
789: 1296: 584: 574: 79: 1311: 693: 683: 475: 1281: 1187:
The description is still a little technical; it may be difficult for the non-specialist to read that and really have any idea how the species looks.

Ok, I'm now happy to promote- this is a solid good article. I will, however, leave a few thoughts on improvement if you're looking towards FAC:
1316: 1286: 1041:"making its eyes appear larger than they really are." Why would that deter predators? Expanding on that would also help expand that paragraph. 967:
wanted to try and maintain the work of the other authors, so I massaged it as best I could. If you would rather see it removed, just say so.
771: 719:: To be honest, we don't need a lot of detailed information about the toxic bite in each and every slow loris species article. The article 85: 1291: 550: 1306: 659: 441: 219: 1276: 1208:
As I say, they're just some things to muse on if you're looking to take this article further; it is very strong how it is regardless.

Referencing and research seems to be very strong. The writing needs a few little tweaks, but, overall, a very nice article. I made

general, but not for slow lorises. I did search the book "Primate Anti-Predator Strategies" and came up with nothing.
65: 858:
Good catch. Sorry, I'm used to hearing "the islands of Indonesia", and didn't think carefully about the wording.

In the distribution section, it may be worth clarifying the countries in which the species is found.

Thanks for catching that. Looks like people got a little overzealous with the categories.

If you have the Borneo category, do you really need Mammals of Southeast Asia?
720: 628: 519: 414: 1096:
Is it right to say this was described in 2012, when the publication was 2013?
