User:Blythwood while reveiwing this page as a part of our page curation process had the following comments:

Few minor bits of cleanup: I've tagged the article on the talk page as an arthropod article, I've added a category, and a taxobar, and I've activated the taxobar by linking this article to the species' entry on Wikidata. References go straight after the full stop, no space (but a bot fixes this). And put a tag making the title italic. Hope that all makes sense!

DYK for Foulden Maar

On 13 June 2019, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Foulden Maar, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that a mining company wants to quarry the New Zealand Miocene fossil site Foulden Maar for use in pig food? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Foulden Maar. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Foulden Maar), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Burrowing sea cucumber

Hi Kim, you mentioned the burrowing anemone the other day, and it reminded me that I had added a reference to Dunedin's own burrowing sea cucumber Taeniogyrus dunedinensis to TJ Parker's page a while ago. I haven't done a species page before, so it's a bit rubbish at the moment (I haven't got the Collins guide or anything so it is just what I could find online), but it is a start. I don't know why I have got the species name twice in the box though! No lovely usable images in iNat yet. DrThneed (talk) 23:16, 11 August 2019 (UTC)

Aaron Hawkins

Kia ora Kimberley, greetings from sunny Christchurch. I've just spotted the Aaron Hawkins article. You've got to be careful with local body politicians; most non-mayors don't meet notability criteria. And with mayors, generally only the big city mayors make the cut. Having looked at the sources, the mayoral profile articles possibly just nudge the article into 'notable enough' territory. Other editors, however, may not agree. Personally, I would stay right away from creating bios of local candidates during election time. Schwede66 01:17, 9 September 2019 (UTC)
