Hello {{ping|Generalissima}} This is my first DYK review so per guideline, 16px second opinion is needed. In any case, the article is interesting to read through, well-sourced, neutral, has no copyright problems; though [https://copyvios.toolforge.org/?lang=en&project=wikipedia&title=Tatannuaq Earwig] returns some similar formulations that you may want to rewrite to lower the percentage :). The hook is interesting, cited, and I suggest linking to C. augustinus itself in the hook,
:ALT1: ... that a species of butterfly was named in honor of an Inuit interpreter?
I have 16px one question regarding naming conventions, though:
In all the sources I was able to access, his name is spelled "Tattannoeuck". I see that only ref [2], which I do not have access to, has "Tatannuaq" in the title. Is there a reason not to use the more prevalent spelling in the sources cited?
AGF sources: [2] [7] [McGoogan]

{{yo|Lol1VNIO}} Good idea on linking. The reason I used Tatannuaq is due to its use of modern Inuktitut spelling conventions and modern sources; see his mention in the Historical Dictionary of the Inuit (2013), a Nunatsiaq news article (https://nunatsiaq.com/stories/article/taissumani_july_7_1826_-_tatannuaq_negotiates_detente_between_john_franklin/) or the mention at pg. 3216 of the Nunavut Assembly's Hansard (https://assembly.nu.ca/sites/default/files/Hansard_20121101.pdf). It just so happens that most of the best sources on this topic are older, and don't use the spelling conventions of most modern published sources. Generalissima (talk) 22:05, 19 January 2024 (UTC)
{{ping|Generalissima}} Makes sense to me (DYKtick)! 16px Second opinion still needed because I am new. Best wishes, ~~lol1 VNIO (I made a mistake? talk to me) 22:39, 19 January 2024 (UTC)
16px Gtg, no issues that I can see. AryKun (talk) 10:46, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
