Bibliography (possibly to use) and Updates that will be making to page
I will be adding more to the taxonomy section, diet, and behavior of the Dwarf sperm whale. I will also be adding a few sentences to their life cycle and the interaction they have with humans.

Marine mammals 129: peer review
Some of the information from the "description" could be added to the lead section because the lead section could use more information. The lead doesn't give a lot of information and doesn't touch on the topics that are written about later in the article. The article has a good structure and the order of the sections make sense. In the first sentence under the "human interaction" section, it is unclear what you mean by mortality. There is a good breadth of information included in this article and a neutral stance is maintained throughout. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pggallag (talk • contribs) 20:49, 7 June 2018 (UTC)
Unfortunate lack of sources for the first bit of this article - so there are no references (at all) until halfway through the first section on this page. I don’t know how to do the little citation needed superscript, but I would definitely put it on the assertion that Kogia was thought to be the same animal until 1998. Reference 16, “Status of the Dwarf Sperm Whale, Kogia Simus…” published 1998, clearly provides (in the first paragraph, mind you) two dates, 1833 & 1866, which refer to papers written that clarify the two (breviceps & simus respectively)as distinct subspecies of Kogiidae. Since it comes from a peer-reviewed article that has already been accepted as accurate enough for other references within the same article, I think the part about the subspecies not being differentiated until 1998 (!) needs to be removed.

- File:X mark.svg Not done The lead doesn't require references since it's a summary of the rest of the article, per MOS:LEADCITE. Most other articles follow the same convention User:Dunkleosteus77 |push to talk 19:10, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
