Hi!

I'm currently writing articles in WP palaeontology for prehistoric animals. I've just had a break! Why you ask? Liopleurodon93 (talk) 07:50, 14 November 2009 (UTC)

Yes you can! Liopleurodon93 (talk) 11:04, 14 November 2009 (UTC)

User:72.1.195.4

The user just has a thing about white tigers rather than being a stalker. They are not really vandalising but some of their edits may be in error, I don't know enough about the tigers to say. They have an account but rarely log in. Just talk with them about what the problems are they will respond.

White Tiger

I wrote most of the white tiger article. I don,t know what I am supposed to have copied and pasted. I have no idea what you are doing. I have never vandalized a wikipedia article or anything else in my life and I am not a stalker. I added most of the sources to the article. There s no point in having a separate section on white Amur tigers added to the article. The artcle already covered that topic. All of my edits are 100% accuarate and sourced. Again I have no idea what you are doing.72.1.195.4 (talk) 17:58, 14 November 2009 (UTC)

I have responded on your talk page. ZooPro 00:29, 15 November 2009 (UTC)

Forgiveness

You are forgiven, I have on occasion been guilty of utilizing "Edit Summary as therapeutic rant" myself. I'd slap you with a trout, but I noticed when I left my previous message that someone already had. Fish can get really smelly and start to annoy the neighbors if there are too many of them, so I've save mine for another time when it's a bit fresher! And thanks for the pretty barnstar!

Your recent comment

Sorry, I don't understand what you meant by "we only focus on zoo articles" that you put on my talk page. What did you mean? The Arbiter^★_★^★ 00:30, 16 November 2009 (UTC)

Now I'm really confused. I'm The Arbiter, not Intelligentsium. The Arbiter^★_★^★ 00:35, 16 November 2009 (UTC)

Ok, now it makes more sense. I was just trying to help improve the Animals one. Yeah, I moved the Zoo userbox to the Gallery and the Template namespace. I look forward to helping with both Wikiprojects! The Arbiter^★_★^★ 00:40, 16 November 2009 (UTC)

I will also move it to the Wikiproject Zoo main page. The Arbiter^★_★^★ 01:14, 16 November 2009 (UTC)

Anything I can do?

So, I'm ready to work on WikiProject Zoo. Anything I can do? Just ask me! The Arbiter^★_★^★ 01:45, 17 November 2009 (UTC)

wikiprojects

I've been seeing the messages you've been posting on WikiProject pages, and I just thought you'd like to know that I've been considering getting involved with, or even coordinating one of, the various tetrapod WikiProjects. I'm pretty new to Wikipedia, and so far I've mostly been adding content to pages on obscure vertebrates. So what does coordinating the projects entail? Thanks, innotata (Talk | Contribs) 20:29, 17 November 2009 (UTC)

Thanks. As for Stechlin cisco, the page I've been working on maniacally that you asessed just now: WikiProject Fishes's page doesn't include C class, so I thought it was closer to B than Start. Its unlikely it can be improved much, as I've gone through all the literature on the queer little fish. I still have dissertation on the matter to read, and some sentences to improve, but that's all. innotata (Talk | Contribs) 16:24, 18 November 2009 (UTC)

An interesting point is: I believe you've just made WikiProject Fishes's first C class article. innotata (Talk | Contribs) 19:28, 18 November 2009 (UTC)

Now to complete my response: no, I don't mind doing things like rating pages and so on. Where did I say I was interested in handling WikiProject Mammals? I'm mostly curious at this stage. As for MaM, I don't know if I'm really cut out to handle that one. I don't know so much about those animals, I won't really be able to work on guidelines on the project page. innotata (Talk | Contribs) 16:41, 18 November 2009 (UTC)

How do you assess importance for pages? That's one thing I don't know a thing about. The info on importance at the project sites is vague and, worse, seems to be copied off of some other WikiProject: it inexplicably ends with "but which are of interest primarily to students of India"! (emphasis mine) innotata (Talk | Contribs) 19:28, 18 November 2009 (UTC)

Portal:Mammals, etc.

Hey, ZP, sorry it's taken forever to get back to you on this. Sure, I'll take over this portal, as long there isn't a deadline. I suppose the goal is to have it look like other portals. Any suggestions up front? I'll do what I can in the meantime. And is this "official?" Do I get a badge or cool graphic on my UP for this?

Two other things: the White Tiger article is really awful, just a jumbled mess. I just can't believe it's original composition, but I haven't got the time/inclination to do any work on it. And there's a nice little article I'm developing (I think it began as an ESL thing) on the first Iberian Lynx to breed in captivity. If you've ever seen a non-copy-vio picture of Saliega, the article could really use one.

I trust this finds you well. Seduisant (talk) 00:43, 19 November 2009 (UTC)

amphibians and reptiles contributors

It seems you forgot to, or are not able to or something like that, to send out a notice to members of WP:AAR, to let them know that you cleared the participant list. We were the only members when I last checked, and it has been a week since you cleared it. innotata (Talk | Contribs) 15:20, 21 November 2009 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image (File:Billabong Koala Park Logo.JPG)

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Billabong Koala Park Logo.JPG. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. ZooFari 00:57, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

User talk:174.1.116.207

As amusing as reverting this fellow's page blanking is, I'm wondering if it's not time to request an Admin to revoke his talkpage access. What say you? Crafty (talk) 23:46, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

importance

The (7) other folks at WP:RODENT have come up with a good importance scale, which I will use for all my assessment henceforth. I think I'll add something like it to the various WikiProjects. innotata (Talk | Contribs) 00:49, 23 November 2009 (UTC)

an unusual "wikiproject"

If you haven't heard of this already, here it is: Wikipedia:WikiProject AP Biology 2009. This explains a lot of queer goings-on. Pudu, Frill-necked Lizard, Bog turtle, and two others are supposed to reach featured article status by Jan. 15. Huh! innotata (Talk | Contribs) 01:10, 23 November 2009 (UTC)

Another page related to this: Wikipedia:Peer review/Bog turtle/archive1. I've been giving feedback here, and it seems those involved don't know what a subspecies, colony, or population is. innotata (Talk | Contribs) 21:16, 23 November 2009 (UTC)

User:7107delicious

Hi! I saw your message on User:7107delicious' talk page. I don't believe that he is involved in sock-puppetry, although he did go through a whole spate of trying out of different signatures. I agree that his edits are of some concern, which is why I am trying to mentor him (see User talk:7107delicious/Mentor). If you wish to investigate his edits, then you are completely at liberty to do so; all I ask is that you could keep me in the loop with what you find. Thanks! Stephen! ^Coming... 13:58, 23 November 2009 (UTC)

ZooPro, I find your message to be very confusing. I simply cannot understand to what you clarify as "RfA comments without substance". Please explain the details on my talk page.

As for you, StephenBuxton, I think it's just about time to leave a small quiz on your talkpage, something that is related to the "incident" regarding to the edits I've created.----_{Boeing7107isdelicious|SPRiCh miT meineN PiloteN} 01:52, 24 November 2009 (UTC)

Gopherus polyphemus

I see you are one of only two members of WikiProject Amphibians and Reptiles. I've recently made some changes to the Gopherus polyphemus article. What do you think of the article's current state, and do you think it should still be rated B-Class and Low Importance? Gary (talk) 00:54, 24 November 2009 (UTC)

I'm the other member, I'll respond instead: yes, I think it does still only have B-class quality–indeed, only just barely so, given the amount of info not peculiar to the species, and so on. Also, its importance will not increase, no matter how much it is improved: read the guidelines. It has the potential to become a good article, if you put a good deal of effort into it. In the future, why don't you address this sort of thing to the WikiProject. And are you interested in joining it yourself? innotata (Talk | Contribs) 20:27, 25 November 2009 (UTC)

User:ZooPro/Billabong Koala Park

Just wondering, will your article scratch be moved to mainspace soon? There's a fair-use image in it that might get deleted soon. ZooFari 01:26, 24 November 2009 (UTC)

Cheers for the notice, yes i will be giving it a major work up over the next 24 to 48 hours and then will move it into mainspace before the image is deleted. Cheers ZooPro 03:10, 24 November 2009 (UTC)

The solemn apology

ZooPro,

I understand that you are angry to me right now, but I need you to understand that I apologize to you about the personal attack I made on the discussion we argued on my talk page. As you might have known it, I'm going to be on a WikiBreak, so if you would like to leave a message, please let me know via email @ dave.gregory96@gmail.com.----_{Boeing7107isdelicious|SPRiCh miT meineN PiloteN} 07:33, 26 November 2009 (UTC)
