Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just added archive links to {{plural:1|one external link|1 external links}} on Asa Wright Nature Centre. Please take a moment to review [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=prev&oldid=707454606 my edit]. If necessary, add {{tlx|cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it. Alternatively, you can add {{tlx|nobots|deny{{=}}InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether. I made the following changes:
- Added archive http://web.archive.org/web/20041210221928/http://www.nalis.gov.tt:80/Places/Place_AsaWrightNatureCenter.html to http://www.nalis.gov.tt/Places/Place_AsaWrightNatureCenter.html
When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true or failed to let others know (documentation at {{tlx|Sourcecheck}}).
{{sourcecheck|checked=true}}

There is apparent conflict between claim made in first sentence that there are 156 species of birds recorded and a second claim near the end that more than 400 species have been recorded at the center. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DHT863 (talk • contribs) 23:27, 23 August 2017 (UTC)
One of only two articles marked {Trinidadian English}
This article uses British English spelling, but there is no other use of local patois in the article. I am unsure why this article and one other, Couva, should be subject to a different standard for language than the rest of the encyclopedia. Rhadow (talk) 14:32, 16 January 2019 (UTC)
:There used to be a lot marked that way, but they're mostly been replaced by {{tl|EngvarB}} (despite the fact that my read of that page suggests it shouldn't be). That said, various forms of "Commonwealth English" are used throughout the project, and British usage shouldn't be imposed just because there's a superficial similarity.

::Hello Guettarda, as described in the article Dialect, local language has common oral usage and a standard by which schools grade papers. It is to the second standard we edit WP. The standard in Trinidad and Tobago is British English. Given that, the {Trinidadia English} tag is no longer relevant to the encyclopedia.

:::{{re|Rhadow}}
:::*{{tq|local language has common oral usage and a standard by which schools grade papers}} - You should know better than to cite a Wikipedia as an authoritative source, far less when it's an uncited statements.
:::*{{tq|The standard in Trinidad and Tobago is British English}} - Again, an unsourced claim. Reality is more complex than that.
:::*{{tq|The discussion continues at Wikipedia_talk:Noticeboard_for_India-related_topics#Please_use_{Indian_English}}} - You shouldn't use characters in your section headers that break links. You also shouldn't point people to discussions where the other participant - someone I know as a reasonable editor - has given up because of your persistent WP:IDIDNTHEARTHAT.

:::::Dear {{U|Rhadow}}, you have incorrectly counted the number of articles which announce that they have been written in Trinidadian English to be two. The assertion of the use of a national, or regional, variety of English within an article is typically made in a banner displayed on the talk page of the article. There are nine Trinidad-related articles whose talk pages carry such banners. See :Category:Wikipedia articles that use Trinidadian English. Overall, there are nearly thirty thousand such countries-related banners on Wikipedia. These banners are the output of the edit command
inconsistency
The first paragraph says "a total of 159 species of birds have been recorded there"; the next-to-last says "The centre is one of the most biodiverse areas in the West Indies and is home to more than 400 bird species". I don't know which is correct, but it seems like they can't both be. Neither seems to have a citation.
