Hi Yzx, article looks very solid, like usual. A few comments:

  • Schreiners ray or Schreiner's ray?
  • Fishbase says "Schreiners"; my feeling is that it's probably meant to be "Scheriner's", but go figure.
  • "The modestly-sized mouth" doesn't give me much of a size reference… can I stick my hand in it?
  • Modestly-sized relative to the body, which is vague yes but I think adequate to convey "not very small and not very large" ...and yes, probably.
  • are kevlar bootees equipment worn by divers? Might be worthwhile to mention that it's so.
  • Yes; I've piped the link to the appropriate article.
  • there's no mention of the synonym Trygon schreineri Gilchrist in the text
  • My policy on synonyms is to only mention them in prose if they're especially significant in some way. Otherwise I think the synonyms section of the taxobox serves in providing them.

Let me know of further issues. -- Yzx (talk) 19:36, 16 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
