[edit] articles i started

Astraptes (see also A. fulgerator below)
Branta
Chen (genus)
Anser (genus)

[edit] recent major contributions

Sentinelese
Ameca splendens
Calidrid - taxonomy review, which was very much unfun.
Formicariidae - another review which stopped short of a major revison but was fun tho.
Astraptes fulgerator - not really major contributions and I'm not seriously thinking about doing any work on these soon, just couldn't stand the crap anymore: "Astraptes is a genus of butterflies [...] investigated with DNA barcoding techniques [...] It currently contains only one species: "Astraptes fulgerator"". Boy. But: italicization was correct; one stands and wonders.
a complete systematical review of Anseriformes, including many lower-level taxa contained therein down to subfamily level, and some genera and species, notably
Anas and
Dabbling duck
Audubon's Shearwater (systematics section)
Puffinus (systematics review)

[edit] major minor contributions

Pelagic Cormorant
Porphyrio
Gallirallus
Gruiformes
Laornis
Shanks (and tattlers of course)
Catharus
Carola's Parotia (+ video link! Yay! If you dont' know it already, you won't believe this!)
Chiffchaff (taxonomy)
Cairina (systematics)
