== arrangement of headings on [[bryozoa]] ==

Not sure how active this talk page is at present but here goes...

Essentially, [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Bryozoa&oldid=321561331 here] is the version before I started messing with it. My view is that naming, taxonomy/classification, and evolution are so intertwined they are best treated in one large section divided into current sections (see the current version - they had been split into three segments previously and required some repetition), and as set up now, the subject matter divides nicely into four sections with subsections each. To facilitate understanding, I have placed the ''Description'' section above the ''taxonomy and evolution'' section. Philcha feels that placing naming down the page is problematic. Anyway, anyone interested please read and place opinions. I figured this was a good place as any as it is a content arrangement discussion (?)

A shrew by another name...

See Talk:Shrew (animal)#Requested move. --Una Smith (talk) 05:27, 29 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I've requested a list for this project at [1]. Ysangkok (talk) 12:15, 3 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Gerrus

Wikipedia lacks content on the genus Gerrus; it appears to have been used at least twice for zoological taxa. Information, anyone? --Una Smith (talk) 03:21, 6 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Cleanup needed

Hi, The hierarchy of headings at List of invasive species in Australasia looks wrong to my untrained eye. (Surely fish are chordates?) Could somebody please check? Thanks. dramatic (talk) 09:42, 16 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion on common names

Any input from TOL people on this discussion would be greatly appreciated. Ucucha 12:38, 21 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I have reviewed and updated the taxonomy on these. I am not 100% sure in some cases (damn radiolaria! Haeckel surely named anything that differed but a little a new species!), but in such cases I usually simply left them indeterminate as to species, and only listed the genus or family.

Thus, there are now about a thousand high-quality illustrations (mainly of invertebrates) waiting to be tagged for extraction... :) Dysmorodrepanis (talk) 12:21, 25 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

arrangement of headings on bryozoa
