• link terms: generic and specific name; type locality

Linked.

• Other common names for the species include Buru mountain-pigeon – I wouldn't call this a distinct common name, it is only a spelling variant that don't warrant mention?

Removed.

• The Buru mountain pigeon was described as Columba mada – Who moved it when into Gymnophaps?

Added.

• Gymnophaps – link to genus in main text. I would also include a sentence introducing this genus: Where are the species distributed? Common name seems to be "mountain pigeons"? Such context really helps.

Added the common name for the genus, but think that distributions would be too in-depth.

I was thinking about a sentence like "Gymnophaps species are distributed over eastern Indonesia and in the region of Melanesia". I really think it would help with understanding. See also WP:audience for further reasoning. --Jens Lallensack (talk) 16:36, 2 January 2022 (UTC)

• but was split on the basis of differences in appearance – when was it split, and by whom?

Added.

• That's it – nice and very solid article! --Jens Lallensack (talk) 21:00, 1 January 2022 (UTC)
