User talk:Solo Toady

Welcome to my talk page!

Messages to be sent to me directly go on this page, thank you.

A few rules:

1. If you have come here to insult/threaten me, the offensive message will be removed as soon as possible, I have already put up with an awful load of emasculation in my lifetime, so I don't need to deal with it anymore.

2. Do not vandalize or you will be given a warning and possibly banned from contributing.

3. No profanity, please, try to keep this page clean from nasty words, any swearing/cursing will be censored if not removed.

4. No repetitively duplicating the exact same message on this page, this will result in a warning.

5. Most importantly, have good faith!

A kitten for you!

Hi, and thank you for creating the animal articles! You could apply for the autopatroller right at WP:PERM after you have created a substantial amount of articles, say 50.

Hello FrankDev, thank you very much for this adorable little feline, I have been enjoying my time creating articles on gastropods, mollusks and other miscellaneous marine animals. I would perhaps like to apply for autopatroller rights on Wikipedia, considering I have created over 150 articles believe it or not! I am willingly ready to create even more articles, I am currently working on the Eulimidae family of gastropods at the moment, and I am expecting to complete all the species within that family within the next two months, so I shall keep proactive on that. Thank you and best wishes! The whimsical enigmatic Solo Toady! 03:52, 16 January 2013 (UTC)

Wow

Hello SoloToady. I can't believe how many gastropod articles you are managing to make! Well done and thank you on behalf of the rest of the project. Invertzoo (talk) 22:19, 26 January 2013 (UTC)

Hello Invertzoo and thank you very much for complimenting on my articles!

Its been a while since I contacted any other members of Wikiproject Gastropods, I have mainly been contributing alone over the last few days. I personally think I have improved in my capabilities on my gastropod articles, considering the amount of time it takes to create 5-10 odd articles every day. I have also doubled (if not tripled) my progress mainly because I have a lot to do (especially in the Eulima genus) and I do not want to end up working on the Eulimidae family for the next 5 months. I know Ganeshbot could make these articles in a few kiloseconds or so, but I thought I could go to the efforts to complete them so I could help all the other members of the Wikiproject. Don't forget I am also working on the Pyramidellidae family as well, so that is a whole different part of my big To-Do List. Like I said earlier, it was very nice of you to compliment me on my new articles, I am expecting to create another 400 articles in the next 2 months so I still have plenty more to work on. I hope for the best, thank you and happy editing! The whimsical enigmatic Solo Toady! 09:09, 27 January 2013 (UTC)

Very best to you too SoloToady! Invertzoo (talk) 00:56, 31 January 2013 (UTC)

Eulima

I think I've got the gist of it and made 2 stubs. If you don't mind, I could make a few more. Christopholes (talk) 07:25, 31 January 2013 (UTC)

Yes, I had a look at these two new Eulima articles and they are satisfactory in my opinion, it is entirely up to you on how many articles you want to create, I am most certainly not bothered in the slightest if you created articles on species within this genus of Caenogastropoda. It would be nice if you could lend me a helping hand with this topic (I've been working on this for a few weeks now). Speaking of which, if you continue to create articles within this category, I would personally recommend joining Wikiproject Gastropods, a fun, collaborative group of users who contribute to articles about sea snails, you don't have to be a malacologist, taxonomist or even be a professional user on Wikipedia, just giving out a suggestion, I'm not forcing you to join, It's entirely up to you. Thanks, and happy editing! The whimsical enigmatic Solo Toady! 07:38, 31 January 2013 (UTC)

Thank you I'll check it out tomorrow. Christopholes (talk) 07:40, 31 January 2013 (UTC)

Just a small reminder

Hello Solo, this is just a reminder to please put the project template onto the talk page as you complete your stubs. Thanks so much. Invertzoo (talk) 13:23, 2 February 2013 (UTC)

Thank you Invertzoo, for reminding me about inserting the project templates into the Eulimidae articles. No worries, I shall remember to do this next time I create another article, thank you for you're kind words! The whimsical enigmatic Solo Toady! 12:58, 3 February 2013 (UTC)

Question

Should synonymous taxa be redirects? Christopholes (talk) 16:42, 19 February 2013 (UTC)

Quite a good question, I don't generally think synonymized taxa should be exclusive Encyclopedic material, however I am not entirely sure. If you would like to discuss this further I suppose you could suggest these redirects to JoJan at his talk page, for further recommendations of improving Wikiproject Gastropods. In my personal opinion, I don't see why synonymous taxa can't be redirects to articles, but make sure to ask JoJan for permission before going ahead and redirecting these entirely, it may be successful of disastrous, I am uncertain at the time being. Then again, I did not construct the overall design of the gastropod articles or have anything to do with the creation of the Wikiproject, I am just a standard contributor of generally low importance. Cheers! The whimsical enigmatic Solo Toady! 07:33, 20 February 2013 (UTC)

Ah, thank you I shall go ask. Christopholes (talk) 15:27, 20 February 2013 (UTC)

Asteroid re-directs

Please quit re-directing asteroid articles such as 132 Aethra, 369 Aëria, and 847 Agnia. If you must re-redirect main belt asteroid articles please keep it to asteroids numbered above 3000 so that you are not re-directing too many notable asteroids that just have poorly developed articles. -- Kheider (talk) 14:09, 17 March 2014 (UTC)
