  • starting review--Kevmin § 16:46, 12 August 2020 (UTC)
  • Symbol question.svgArticle newly expanded, and over 5X in new length. Article is neutral and cited. Hook is cited, source article in French, and matches hook based on google translate. I do not find any sources that use the term Zebra Tang for this species though. the linked citations give the common names as black-barred surgeonfish.--Kevmin § 16:54, 12 August 2020 (UTC)
Template:Ping"Zebra tang" seems quite common in the aquarium trade but "black-barred surgeonfish" is more common elsewhere. I have added a reference and would prefer to call it zebra fish in the hook as being much snappier. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 17:36, 12 August 2020 (UTC)
zebra fish is already used for Danio rerio which is very common in the aquarium trade as well, while Acanthurus triostegus more often is called a surgeonfish by the reliable sources--Kevmin § 17:50, 12 August 2020 (UTC)
Template:Ping This fish is known as the "zebra tang" and is very uncommon in the aquarium trade. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 13:48, 15 August 2020 (UTC)
Template:Ping given that its very uncommon in aquaculture, thats more reason not to use the name, to be honest. I get that you feel the vernaculars make the more accessible. but we should be using the most frequently used vernacular, not a rarely used alt.--Kevmin § 19:56, 15 August 2020 (UTC)
Have a look at this page. I disagree with you on this point and would like another opinion. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:08, 16 August 2020 (UTC)
Template:Outdent I've seen the links you have provided, and I have noted that reputable taxonomic sources do not use or report the name, indicating that it is not used outside of(US?) aquaculture.--Kevmin § 21:53, 16 August 2020 (UTC)
  • Unsolicited opinion: It looks okay to me. --evrik (talk) 03:37, 25 August 2020 (UTC)
