- arkuat (talk) I started this because I got frustrated with Monera (much improved now!), and worried about Ernst Haeckelth p\ (still needs help), and thought that a more focused project that wasn't distracted by the history of the physical sjciences might help me with these problems.
- Ragesoss
- NCurse: I mostly write articles about biology in Hungarian wiki, but if you tell me what to write, ow where to help, I'm here. :)
- G eneral E i senhower Esc Shift Love Biology.
- Samsara ( talk • contribs) 17:11, 20 May 2006 (UTC) Signing up for now, hope I get time for it. Great WikiProject!
- Alexei Kouprianov I sign up. Mostly working for Russian Wiki, I sometimes contribute to the articles dealing with the history of biology and natural history. Alexei Kouprianov 12:46, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
- John Schmidt How about a reference list for Monera?
- bwi410
- Rusty Cashman I will try and help out. I just helped address a lack of content in the Georges Cuvier bio. I am concerned about weakness in pre-Darwinian natural history, paleontology in particular.
- DGG More time in 07.
- Wloveral ( talk) 04:24, 27 April 2008 (UTC) Signing on. -- Wloveral ( talk) 04:24, 27 April 2008 (UTC) Especially Brazilian biologists.
- Tyciol I enjoy the history section of bio101 and also read Darwin's Century a great book. Tyciol ( talk) 03:17, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
- Arcadianraptor Love biology and history, independently and together.
- Make a precis (in this article) of life-science-specific projects languishing on Wikipedia:WikiProject History of Science and Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject History of Science.
- If you find history of life science stubs, tag them as {{ sci-hist-stub}}. If you find history of life science articles for which this hasn't already been done, add {{ HistSci}} to their talk pages. Discuss developing templates specific to this project on Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject History of Biology.
- History of zoology, post-Darwin - partly from EB 1911, in bad shape; needs copyediting as well. Now included in the Zoology navigation template; high priority, needs to incorporate the other good history of biology articles where appropriate
- History of zoology (before Darwin) - partly from EB 1911, in bad shape; needs copyediting as well. High priority; in Zoology navigation template
- Silent Spring - needs section on historical significance, and better description of its contents; the only two sections of prose after the intro are currently Criticism and Vindication?, neither of which has much, if anything, worth keeping.
- Natural history - very bare, with some dubious information
- History of genetics - expand timelines into prose
- Heredity - is currently very poor, very short, and does not go back into concepts of heredity before the late 19th century in any appreciable sense.
- History of molecular biology (see also molecular biology and Molecular structure of Nucleic Acids)
- History of biology - Needs attention for the 20th century section, and trimming and balancing in the antiquity and medieval sections.
- Prokaryote
- History of paleontology - new article needs needs help after mid 19th century
- Humboldtian science - new article, needs copy-editing
- Nature study - newly expanded article, needs copy-editing
- Thomas Malthus - messy article, needs much refactoring (NB v. short paragraphs), structure, proper referencing
Biographies of many of the central figures in modern biology are woefully short.
