[edit] removing *

Please do not remove all * yet, as they are used in an experimental showcase on Peracarida. For use in Vernacular names, they can be removed everywhere however. Thanks Lycaon 09:33, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

* should be removed only from front of interwiki links. If there are wrongly removed * characters somewhere, please let me know. --Harriv 12:15, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

no complaints so far :-)) Lycaon 18:53, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Bot line

• Check in Name sections if there's the word and, if so, then replace it with & (because this is universal symbol, 'and' is english) --Kempm 13:17, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

Any examples? --Harriv 14:09, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

Anopheles_antunesi is an example. Replacing 'and' in Name section would make it more universal :) --Kempm 15:03, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

• Find every "Superorder:" in Taxonavigation and change to "Superordo:"
• Find every "Order:" in Taxonavigation and change to "Ordo:"
• Find every "Suborder:" in Taxonavigation and change to "Subordo:"
• Find every "Superorders:" in Taxonavigation and change to "Superordines:"
• Find every "Orders:" in Taxonavigation and change to "Ordines:"
• Find every "Suborders:" in Taxonavigation and change to "Subordines:"
• Find every "Superfamily:" in Taxonavigation and change to "Superfamilia:"
• Find every "Family:" in Taxonavigation and change to "Familia:"
• Find every "Subfamily:" in Taxonavigation and change to "Subfamilia:"
• Find every "Superfamilies:" in Taxonavigation and change to "Superfamiliae:"
• Find every "Families:" in Taxonavigation and change to "Familiae:"
• Find every "Subfamilies:" in Taxonavigation and change to "Subfamiliae:"
• Find every "Superdivisions:" in Taxonavigation and change to "Superdivisiones:"
• Find every "Divisions:" in Taxonavigation and change to "Divisiones:"
• Find every "Subdivisions:" in Taxonavigation and change to "Subdivisiones:"
• Find every "Superdivision:" in Taxonavigation and change to "Superdivisio:"

• Find every "Specie:" in Taxonavigation and change to "Species:"

Also there are instances when people have used the plural form of Taxonavigation words when there is only one taxon associated with it in the list. Is there a way for a bot to locate these typos and fix them to? Example: "Classes: Insecta" being changed to "Classis: Insecta" Totipotent 09:24, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

I think all of these are doable. However I'm "out-of-office" until end of next week, so you'll have to wait few days. Is there list of words with plural and singular forms? --Harriv 12:52, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

Yes there is, you can find the list on the Wikispecies:Templates page. Just add the prefixes Super, Sub, and Infra to them. Thanks. Totipotent 14:55, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Reactivate HarrivBOT

Is there any chance HarrivBOT can be reactivated? There is still a lot of cleanup it could do. For example, a search through the 2007-04-20 dump of the Wikispecies database (excluding most non-taxon pages) shows over 1400 pages with "Interwiki". --Georgeryp 18:04, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] 'Species' microformat: bot needed

Please see: Wikispecies:Microformat. If people agree to apply this microformat, a bot will be needed. Thank you. Andy Mabbett 10:33, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
