Hi, you might want to add Category:Agamas to your lizard stubs, I've done a bunch already.-- nixie 10:53, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
Yup, those were the foundation stones. I hoped someone with a deeper interest in the subject may try and expand it. Why don't you have a go? :) =Nichalp «Talk»= 10:03, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
Hey Shyamal, would it be wise to use this tag {{ Reqimage}} on the species pages. Instead of the image required (image) that you had dsuggested? -- Viren 17:01, 29 December 2005 (UTC)
Hey, I'm not accusing you or editing, but I've noticed that you've created a number of articles very quickly about species of snake. Just checking that they're not Copyvios or anything. Thanks, Werdna648 T/ C\ @ 09:35, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
Have you seen the evowiki project? Try it ... [ [1]] Prashanthns 18:15, 3 January 2006 (UTC)
I agree that stubs have to be created for all the butterflies. I dont know how to use editplus to do this. I generally use editplus as a simple editor. I supp I cud use MS excel to do the same thing. Once I have a list of the bfs. The real trouble comes when we are uploading the articles. Anyway we can work on those later. Your suggestion of putting in a taxobox and a one lines for common and binomial name is fine and I will start doing this. Just one point before we start. I guess we should maintain some format for them. We cannot make an article-wide template so what format, which taxobox. -- Viren 15:11, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
As usual on my user page I have put up the current format with the taxobox from your user page. I think it works fine, but let me know, please. I'm also trying to update the authority for each name. But that will be very time consuming. Another think I am thinking of was to break the butterfly page into its component families. -- Viren 16:31, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
I'm having trouble deciding names for the butterfly family pages. Hespirids of India, or List of Hesperids of India or Indian Hesperidae Other families will have names in the same vein. Plese comment. -- Viren 13:13, 6 January 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for the copyedit on group selection and apologies for its necessity. I don't usually leave things dangling like that. Cheerio! - Samsara 16:03, 8 January 2006 (UTC)
I just dropped in to say you a big hello. Nice edits. -- Bhadani 12:18, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for being concerned. The article has been voted "Keep": Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Phylogeography. - Samsara 12:55, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
Thanks!! Slrubenstein | Talk 15:17, 12 January 2006 (UTC)
Nice edits; Keep up the good work! -- Zegoma beach 15:09, 24 January 2006 (UTC)
Yeah, my first Barnstar. looks good. Thank you. Now I'll go and look at what it implies *grin* -- Viren 10:02, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
Sure looks like a dark palm dart. Beauty shot. -- Viren 13:12, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
The first image you posted on my talk page looks very much like the species of jumping spider found in the USA, Synemosyna formica. You might Google for images of Synemosyna to see whether there are other species in that genus. I don't know about the distribution of S. formica. It could well be world-wide.
As for the other spider, I think I've seen something similar but I can't find my spider key book. It's a beautiful image, so I printed it out and will let you know if I find it. P0M 15:40, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
It would be nice if you would put your spider pictures in the gallery on the commons: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Spider#Family_Araneidae Thanks. P0M 23:28, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
I would say Common Cerulean. The third line from the base of the fore wing is straight. This is the wet form though. In lineblues the lines are supposed to be a bit broken up. I havent seen lineblue though so this is all theory. Strange if you took this pic now during the dry season. But I will go home and take a look. These blues generally confuse me. Check srilanka butterflies http://www.srilankaninsects.net/Butterflies/Lycaenidae/CommonCerulean/CommonCerulean.htm and this http://indiabutterflies.tripod.com/blues/cerulean.html

Have you seen the deletion notice for List of Butterflies of India (Pieridae)
I've sourced it from the ToI article which is mentioned in the article itself. Regards, =Nichalp «Talk»= 10:01, 16 February 2006 (UTC)
Shouldn't that be "less likely to roll off" - I can't see how they would be preferentially selected otherwise. -- Solipsist 09:30, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
Why did you take the image of a Snowy Plover off the Kentish Plover page? Even the AOU (as split-happy bunch of birders as you'll find in the world) consider them to be the same species. Sabine's Sunbird 13:15, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
Gees, almost sounds like an insult. At any rate, I noticed you changed the Latin name for this butterfly. I looked it up on Google and found a third Latin name: Junonia hedonia ida. The folks at the Saint Louis Zoo identified it as a "Precis iphita." Personally, I have no preference. However, I am trying to learn about how butterflies are named. Can you point me to a good reference? Also, can you explain how the Chocolate Pansy seems to have so many different names? I'm a total butterfly noob, so I'll appreciate any assistance you can provide. Rklawton 05:01, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
Thanks again for identifying this for me. I liked my photos better than the photos found by Google, so I immediately self-nominated it for FPC. This identification begs the question: what the heck is this little bugger doing in Missouri? Rklawton 17:52, 11 March 2006 (UTC)
thanks for picking up on the image - I don't know if it's possible to rename an image less confusingly?
It took me ages to more-or-less restore this page, and I assumed that was just another error - why anyone should move the content fro the species to a subspecies baffles me. jimfbleak 06:45, 11 March 2006 (UTC)
For a board member I think a good article and PR experience should be mentioned. So if you have anything like it it would be good to mention it! -- Stone 07:13, 13 March 2006 (UTC)
