Review (criteria)	Comment Insufficient description IMO: No size, no proveance nor colletion (or alternatively geocoding); in addition, the shell is right-handed, not left-handed as said in the description. I think also, this picture is better, but unfortunately also here the description is not complete --Llez (talk) 13:05, 5 August 2016 (UTC)  Comment Fixed geocoding and description. It is left-handed conch. eg: left and right coiling in gastropods. --AntanO 15:53, 5 August 2016 (UTC)  Comment And exactly according to this description it is right-handed!!! Please correct your description. --Llez (talk) 05:33, 6 August 2016 (UTC)  CommentIf you really want to know, ask me at my talk page. But do not say to correct it. If it was right-handed, I would sell it for some $$$$. --AntanO 11:36, 6 August 2016 (UTC)  Comment Please read the malacozoological literature, especially the definion of "right-handed" and "left-handed" and also the difference of left-handed species like Neptunea angulata (you refer to in your link) (see also Neptunea angulata in Wikipedia) and others like Dyakia salangana, Amphidromus everetti (in which right-handed specimens are rare and $$$$), and right-handed species like Charonia tritonis (your species) and many others (e.g. Helix pomatia, Bolinus brandaris...) in which left-handed specimens are rare and $$$$. --Llez (talk) 21:26, 6 August 2016 (UTC)  Comment Maybe we can discuss somewhere since it is not the correct place. --AntanO 01:22, 7 August 2016 (UTC)  Oppose it misses the vernacular name in English in the scope. There is no winding feature. The photographic descrition is too poor to a shell. --Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 04:46, 6 August 2016 (UTC)  Oppose Because of wrong scope. The shell is right-handed and no intention to correct it. --Llez (talk) 15:36, 7 August 2016 (UTC) Result: 0 support, 2 oppose => declined. Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 05:16, 9 August 2016 (UTC)
