I think perhaps people need to learn to chill a bit and remember we're all here for one purpose, writing an encyclopaedia. People can contribute to this in multiple ways, be it maintenance based like AFD, vandal fighting, content addition or a mixture of things. What doesn’t help us build an encyclopaedia is in-fighting, bickering over trivial issues or using Wikipedia as an on-line battleground. This has the opposite effect, it simply pushes good contributors out and encourages drama, which does nothing to aid our ultimate goal; it makes us MySpace.

The European spruce bark beetle (Ips typographus), is a species of bark beetle in the true weevil family, Curculionidae. It is found in Europe and Asia Minor and east to China, Japan, North Korea and South Korea. Bark beetles are so named because they reproduce in the inner bark, living and dead phloem tissues, of trees. Their preferred trees in which to reside include spruces, firs, pines and larches. The species has the ability to spread quickly over large areas and some scientists hypothesize that long-distance movements originating from the Iberian Peninsula may have contributed to its invasion of northern Norway spruce forests. This female European spruce bark beetle was photographed in Naninne in the province of Namur, Belgium.Photograph credit: Ivar Leidus
