Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Dusicyon avus, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Hybridization. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

St Kilda house mouse move

[edit]

Hi - I have just requested that your move be reversed. Its the taxobox that is wrong - there is no "Saint Kilda" (see St Kilda, Scotland). Just check with any authority such as Scottish Natural Heritage for the spelling. Ben MacDui 19:56, 14 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding fossil species articles.

[edit]

Hi there! Thanks for your contributions to paleontological articles. If you haven't already, be sure to check out the resources and community at Wikipedia:WikiProject Palaeontology. I've noticed you've created several stubs on extinct species in the same genus (e.g. Prolagus oeningensis and Prolagus imperialis). While not mandated by any policy, it is conventional among Paleontology articles to discuss all species of a genus at the genus article instead of making largely redundant species stubs for long-extinct fossil organisms, as many are known from relatively little material or few studies, and isolated stubs provide little context. The individual species can be redirects to the genus. See for instance Paraceratherium, Ocepeia or Psittacosaurus (the latter having so many species with such an abundance of literature that a separate list of species was warranted). More information is at Wikipedia:WikiProject_Palaeontology#Single-species_articles. Individual species articles might be more warranted for recently extinct species like Prolagus sardus or species with extensive literature or special significance. Please also strive to use high-quality, reliable sources. If you have any questions, ask me on my talk page. Cheers! --Animalparty-- (talk) 08:49, 20 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

ArbCom elections are now open!

[edit]

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
