Thanks Anna for your helpful note on my talk page. I hope you are doing well. While I am on this trip I am not doing as much on WP as usual, as you can probably tell. In any case, I have to tell you, you are worth your weight in gold as a contributor, you really are. So... I am looking forward to when things quiet down again a bit on the Project, we have had more than our fair share of interesting interventions recently.

G'day Anna, Below is a draft notice that I have made, please feel free to further edit it until you think it is what you wish to convey. Keep me updated, Cheers Zoo Pro 11:05, 1 September 2010 (UTC)
Hello WikiProject members. As part of a
recent discussion at WikiProject Animals, a number of users have indicated that the presentation of the current guidelines on the capitalization of common names of species is somewhat unclear.
We wish to clarify and confirm existing uncontroversial guidelines and conventions, and present them in a "quick-reference" format, for inclusion into the guidelines for the capitalization of common names of species. Please take a moment to visit the draft. Your input is needed to ensure this is done the best way possible and to ensure consistent consensus. Thank you <insert user name/s here> |
As a further comment, you may wish to inform WP:WPMOS also. These links may also help. Wikipedia:PROPOSAL#proposal, WP:PROJDIR Cheers Zoo Pro 11:15, 1 September 2010 (UTC)
You are kinda on track, an RfC should only be started after you and others (what I call the "top 10" animal editors) are happy with what it conveys. On WikiProject Manual of Style just leave a note on the talk page (I would use the box above). I think your wording is good, like I said before its your proposal so make sure it reflects what you wish to convey. I would also take on board all the advice Ucucha has to offer, I have an great amount of respect for that user and is someone I refer to if I am unsure of things such as policy or naming conventions.
The "top 10: animal editors would be:
The list is of course not official however the above editors are highly involved in the project and I have personally worked with them all, I often seek there input and advice on all matters regarding the wikiprojects or animal issues. Though I have no doubt forgotten some important ones that I work with so often they seem to be part of Wikipedia as opposed to being contributers however they are prob lurking somewhere ready to slap me with a trout for forgetting them. Zoo Pro 05:22, 2 September 2010 (UTC) I will get back to you with your first question. Zoo Pro 05:22, 2 September 2010 (UTC)
I do hope this ends up clarifying things, and paves the way for an eventual resolution sometime down the road. I sort of regret opening this can of worms. Thanks again for your help. Anna Frodesiak ( talk) 05:56, 2 September 2010 (UTC)
Heh...but maybe I wanted a big Chicken Comment on the top of my page! Nah, I much prefer to keep comments in appropriate numerical order. FYI, I watch your page, too. On an unrelated note, I feel bad for not having followed up on the badly needed reorganization of Dog meat. It's such a massive project, involving wading through dozens of sources and fundamentally re-ordering everything, that it is difficult to even get started with....I keep telling myself I'll get back to it someday, but then I end up with other "projects" to work on, too. And, of course, time is a precious commodity.... Qwyrxian ( talk) 00:41, 6 September 2010 (UTC)

I am now suggesting to you the idea of a second section. Take a look on my talk page. Invertzoo ( talk) 22:22, 15 September 2010 (UTC)
Hi Anna. May I please ask you to scroll down this page until you'll see images of Afro combs, and tell me what images displayed there you'd like to use for the articles. Apparently the copyright holder agreed to release them with a free license. So, let's make another try. Cheers.-- Mbz1 ( talk) 17:34, 17 September 2010 (UTC)
On 26 September 2010, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Orius insidiosus, which you created or substantially expanded. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page ( here's how, quick check ) and add it to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |

When you have a moment, could you look at this article and tell me what you think? I've tagged it as OR, and it has already been tagged as unreferenced since 2007. Viriditas ( talk) 08:39, 28 September 2010 (UTC)
Here's wishing you a speedy recovery! Viriditas ( talk) 10:24, 29 September 2010 (UTC)
Sorry for posting here but I can't see where else to set out my opinion (all of the other pages where the matter is discussed seem to be rather ancient). Surely it would be easier if ALL vernacular names were in lower-case for ALL flora and fauna, except where UC is obviously needed (Douglas fir, Cassin's owl, Corsican pine etc.). Any other solution – particularly discrete rules for reptiles, fish, fungi - will simply cause more confusion in the long run. The best rules are the simplest and those with the fewest exceptions. To have blue whale AND Blue Tit AND Bluebell all at once is simply insane. What we need is blue whale, blue tit and bluebell. Ericoides 20:34, 29 September 2010 (UTC)
Hi Anna, Too bad you are on a break. Hopefully you get this in time. I noticed you have contributed to the Cheers article. I am hoping that you will be sympathetic to my cause. I created the The Gift of the Woodi article years ago to cover the Cheers episode in which Woody sings the K-E-L-L-Y song. People who apparently know nothing about Cheers are threatening to delete this article. Please take a look at the article and judge for yourself. Clerks. ( talk) 18:54, 30 September 2010 (UTC)

Yes Anna, since SIN logo was replaced by Univision from Televisa cut to make it U from 1st 1986-87 logo, then 2nd 1987-90 logo and now 3rd 1990-present logo because when I was a child, I am a smarter remember than that. So do you have a song with a lyrics says Univision, Univision lo Nuestro along with La Cadena de los Grandes Eventos and Telenovela Que Hacen Historia on video tapes recorder in you home because I can't find it anywhere on the internet since 2000? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.72.39.176 ( talk) 12:29, 12 October 2010 (UTC)
Hello! Your submission of Typhoon Megi (2010) at the Did You Know nominations page has been reviewed, and there still are some issues that may need to be clarified. Please review the comment(s) underneath your nomination's entry and respond there as soon as possible. Thank you for contributing to Did You Know!

Thanks! The next bit that needs some thorough reworking is the impact section. It's actually quite difficult to read.-- Blackmane ( talk) 07:08, 19 October 2010 (UTC)

i have added a couple of post on articles on which i am knowledgable. one article is "factory farming" and even though i inserted references, the site is obviously controlled by people unwilling to allow posts from a more neutral perspective. how can this be resolved?
