Comment: The article seems a little over-illustrated, and there is not a single mention of the ducklings. Quality-wise, this image is there, but in the current article, it is adding little. Perhaps contact Casliber (talk · contribs)? He's someone who would be very able to write a decent article on an Australian bird. J Milburn (talk) 10:44, 25 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I have to completely disagree; in no way does one each of male, female and duckling constitute overillustrated. IMO that's perfect, and even if it had 20 images, if this were the only one of a duckling then it would still be important. If the article doesn't currently mention the ducklings then that means the image is even more important. Benjamint 21:05, 25 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that where a species' appearance is variable a well illustrated article will have representations of all the different ways it can look. Having a male, female and chick is not over illustrated, for this species it could probably have a male in ellipse plumage and a juvenile bird too. It would be great if the article was longer, and with as many featured images as this has it may well be worked on soon (but bear with us, there are lots of birds that could have better articles!).

Support. Always nice to have a juvenile image to compliment the adults. It's a stub, but it isn't gallery-like. Mostlyharmless (talk) 08:35, 28 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Support. I expanded the article a bit, and I think the image now fits in much better. Elekhh (talk) 21:02, 28 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Support: Great work, Elekhh, thank you. Fits well in the article. Good EV and quality. Maedin\^talk 07:28, 1 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
