    It would also seem that the article’s existence violates Wikipedia’s “no conflicts of interest” policy and the entire list of sources violates the “no self-published sources” rule. I propose the article be deleted. Thoughts?

    I think it is relatively humble, writing an article about your species and listing hairlessness and bipedalism as your most distinguishing features. I mean which species does that?

      Writing a wikipedia article about themselves is another distinguishing feature of humans.

    Clearly we need more species diversity in Wikipedia editors.

      I now and then “let” my cat write on the keyboard, but he’s always rejected for some obscure claim like “illegible”.

      Apes scare me. Chimpanzee are aggressive little fuckers. New world primates can be pretty cute though.

      They can be tolerant of humans, but they’ve also been known to hunt and eat humans.

        My younger cousin got in a stare fight with a chimpanzee at the zoo. That fucker (my cousin) kept making eye contact and imitating the ape’s body language. We kept telling him to at least look away because the ape was getting mad but, uh, he thought angering the ape was funny. Next thing I know it kicked four or six inch thick iunno plexiglass and that shook at least four or six inches. Vibrated something fierce. Dude was strong as fuck. Which apparently did not scare nephew because he wanted to get the ape to do it again. We managed to respect him too the polar bear, which we told him sometimes shat in the water. That was his idea of fun at the zoo I did and do not understand that child.

          Chimpanzees and Humans have both been documented to hunt and eat Humans and Chimpanzees.

          Gorillas, on the other hand, have a more plant-based diet and are generally less aggressive, there are few to no cases of them killing humans AFAIK.

    TBF, I’m sure the person who wrote the article probably doesn’t consider high intelligence as a compliment, moreso a curse.
