Anagotus stephenensis

Hello and thanks for starting this excellent article! However, please consider adding an infobox to improve the article's quality, an appropriate infobox would be Template:Taxobox#Animal_species. If you are unfamiliar with using infoboxes, visit Help:Infobox but it's quite easy, simply copy and paste the infobox shown at the template page and fill the empty spaces. If you need additional help, visit your welcome links or contact me at my talk page. SwisterTwister talk 06:05, 25 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! One thing you might consider is having this renamed to "Flax weevil", we usually title articles based on commonality of usage, see WP:FAUNA. Drop me a note if you'd like me to assist with that move. Great work! --j⚛e decker ^talk 16:55, 27 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

A page you started (Geodorcus servandus) has been reviewed!

Thanks for creating Geodorcus servandus, Markanderson72!

Wikipedia editor Nick Moyes just reviewed your page, and wrote this note for you:

Nice article (I'd not appreciated there were any flightless members of the Lucanidae). I certainly think this is a great candidate for WP:DYK, should you want to go the extra mile and get it on the Main page of Wikipedia. Note: The Distribution and habitat section has no references, which it definitely needs. I would wikilink Beverley Holloway as, in my view, and person who names a new species to science is notable. Not everyone agrees, but a red-link is a way to encourage someone to look at her and decide if an article is worth creating.

To reply, leave a comment on Nick Moyes's talk page.

Did You Know. . . . . . that you deserve a cuppa?

Congrats on getting your first Did You Know through. I thought you deserved a cup of tea whilst you wait for it to appear on the Main Page.
