Talk:Swarm behaviour

I like the little .gif videos. Let's get more of those on Wikipedia.

Microorganisms

The "swarming" of microorganisms is not general knowledge and requires verification. SmokeyJoe 00:57, 20 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Eels are a subset of fish

Isn't it then redundant to list them again in the list of species that swarm?

Substantial Enough?

The article doesnt seem altogether particularly comprehensive enough to me. It speaks mostly about the behavior of fish swarms but not really other species. The species list itself also seems like its a little short (I'm no biologist so I can't say for sure.)

Shoaling as an article in its own right

Unless there are objections, I propose splitting out the section called Fish into an article of its own called Shoaling. The main article will then have a truncated section on shoaling, referring to the separate article. Shoaling is an important topic in Fisheries, and needs its own article. The current article details only shoaling behaviour, and has a lot of scope for expansion. --Geronimo20 (talk) 03:31, 5 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Flocking behavior?

How is swaming behavior different from flocking behavior? If they are sufficiently similar, I would advocate combining the articles. If not, then I think a section is in order which can point out the similarities and differences. --1000Faces (talk) 07:37, 3 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Quotes

There is zero reason for having a quote section about this. Any viable information should be incorporated into the general description and not seperated into a quote section. What's next? Swarm trivia? 72.221.114.113 (talk) 04:01, 29 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
