Taxonomy: For all marine species, Project Gastropods uses the taxonomy in the online database WoRMS. When starting a new article, do not use sources of taxonomic information that predate the 2017 revision for all gastropod groups ("Revised Classification, Nomenclator and Typification of Gastropod and Monoplacophoran Families" by Philippe Bouchet & Jean-Pierre Rocroi, Bernhard Hausdorf, Andrzej Kaim, Yasunori Kano, Alexander Nützel, Pavel Parkhaev, Michael Schrödl and Ellen E. Strong in Malacologia, 2017, 61(1–2): 1–526.) (can be dowloaded at Researchgate.net), substituting the previous classification of 2005 Taxonomy of the Gastropoda (Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005). If you need help with any aspect of an article, please leave a note at the Project talk page.

Copyright problem

This article has been revised as part of the large-scale clean-up project of a massive copyright infringement on Wikipedia. Earlier text must not be restored, unless it can be verified to be free of infringement. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions must be deleted. Contributors may use sources as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences or phrases. Accordingly, the material may be rewritten, but only if it does not infringe on the copyright of the original or plagiarize from that source. Please see our guideline on non-free text for how to properly implement limited quotations of copyrighted text. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously.

For more information on this situation, which involved a single contributor liberally copying material from print and internet sources into several thousand articles, please see the two administrators' noticeboard discussions of the matter, here and here, as well as the the cleanup task force subpage.

Unaccepted taxon?

@Ganeshbot: can you explain/cite your statement that Janthinidae is not an accepted taxon? --Nessie (talk) 14:52, 3 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @NessieVL:, that cleanup tag was added per the record status at WoRMS, http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=1748. Please start a thread at the Gastropod project talk page if the edit is incorrect. — Ganeshk (talk) 20:39, 5 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The accepted name is Epitoniidae Berry, 1910 (1812). — Ganeshk (talk) 23:02, 5 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I just changed the template, since this family has been down graded to the Epitoniidae family. Catfurball (talk) 18:32, 27 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Catfurball and Ganeshk: Why not a {{Merge}}? --awkwafaba (📥) 20:28, 27 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
