Improving this article has been on my to-do list for some time. As with all glossaries, it's difficult to avoid plagiarism, because short definitions have to be precise, which means there are few ways to word them. It definitely needs more diagrams. Some issues:

I don't think I've ever heard this term. Most of the sources I've seen use venter. Kaldari ( talk) 09:20, 14 May 2017 (UTC)
@ Kaldari: although terms like "unidentate", "bidentate", etc. seem mostly to be used of chelicerae, they can be used more generally – e.g. "the tibial apophysis is bidentate" is here. So perhaps change these entries? Peter coxhead ( talk) 10:07, 14 May 2017 (UTC)
Hi @ Peter coxhead: I just wanted to explain what was wrong with the {{anchor|RTA}} issue that I fixed yesterday, since it was kind of obscure. The {{gli|RTA}} internal link wasn't working in my browser, since there were two {{anchor|RTA}} anchors on the page - one under the RTA definition, and one in the Abbreviations section. I changed the definition anchor to {{anchor|retrolateral tibial apophysis}} and set the link to {{gli|retrolateral tibial apophysis}} to fix the problem. However, since you added the {{anchor|RTA}} back to the definition, there are once again two {{anchor|RTA}} anchors on the page, so any internal links added in the future that point to RTA also won't work. (There are none right now, but I wanted to leave this here for future reference.) Inverted Hourglass ( talk) 00:00, 15 July 2021 (UTC)

@ Drahkrub: there are two problems with the SVG version which you changed to. First, at least on my system, the font is too thin, and I cannot easily read it. Second, the term "mandible" is used instead of "chelicera". "Mandible" does not appear in the glossary, and is not normally used in English in describing spiders, at least in the books I have.

@ Peter coxhead: A numbered version of the SVG is now also available. Regards, -- Burkhard ( talk) 11:51, 30 December 2021 (UTC)
