•  Comment Very nice birdy. But may it be this is an immature bird (this, for instance, is presumably a picture of an adult Coracias caudatus specimen), in this case this should be also described as such. Also, of course, Category:Protected areas of Tanzania is clearly redundant, because: "Protected areas of Tanzania" -> "National parks of Tanzania" -> "Serengeti National Park" (-> "Animals of Serengeti National Park" -> "Birds of Serengeti National Park"), you should therefore remove it from all your uploaded picture of the same session, if there are more available. --A.Savin 17:43, 8 August 2024 (UTC)

  Thank you for your comment. I'm not sure yet if it's a juvenile and I will do more research on it (I don't want to add a statement to the file without being sure of it), if it's the case I'll edit accordingly. As for the category "Protected areas of Tanzania", it is automatically added to all uploads made with the WLE in Tanzania 2024 upload wizard and may be needed or useful to the organizers. Therefore I would prefer to wait until the end of WLE 2024 in case this category is needed for the national or international jury depending how their scripts where made. Once WLE 2024 has ended, I'll happily remove that category that was automatically added. -- Giles Laurent (talk) 02:40, 9 August 2024 (UTC)

  After checking it seems that it is an adult and not an immature one -- Giles Laurent (talk) 13:16, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
