Charles Douglas's observations

This article contains: "Still, Douglas' observations on wildlife are generally trustworthy;" The Haast's Eagle article contains this: "Still, Douglas' observations on wildlife generally are not trustworthy;"

I think this article is wrong but I'm not sure —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.226.74.7 (talkcontribs)

Image?

I think that this article of a extinct bird needed a image. I maybe make a drawing of it. But it would be challenge for me. Especially since i have made drawings. ArtisticHokioi (talk) 16:55, 1 May 2022 (UTC)Reply

Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: not moved. Consensus to keep current titles per MOS:POSS. This can be revisited in the future if the discussion at Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style#MOS:'S misguided? results in the MOS being updated.

– I'm a native English speaker, albeit not from New Zealand. In my view, "s apostrophe" is better than "s apostrophe s". According to Grammarly, style guides are divided on the issue. https://www.grammarly.com/blog/apostrophe/. However, the names used by the resource https://www.nzbirdsonline.org.nz/ are the ones I recommend: Eyles' harrier, Forbes' snipe, and Hawkins' rail.
