If kakapo means night-parrot, what does kakadoo mean?
editDespite the existence of a chapter named etymology, there is no info about the meaning of the original word in the article, if there was an indegenous one. Such a meaning can be reasonably supposed existing since the kakapo's name is Maori for night parrot. --Ghettobuoy (talk) 13:12, 21 June 2020 (UTC)
Replacing the current feature image with a different one?
editThe current version of the Cockatoo article is this photo of a galah. Personally I think that this choice of image is a little incongruous. Can I suggest that we instead have an image that features a variety of different species of cockatoos together, similar to this image that heads the 'Eagle' article. Thoughts on this?

Something about cockatoo intelligence?
editConsidering adding most of the content from Tanimbar_corella#Intelligence to this article too, as it seems that this species seems to particularly well-studied in terms of its intelligence. Thoughts? Iloveparrots (talk) 18:28, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
