Presently 1.8 million species are described worldwide.

I wish to see them all listed someday on this site!

[edit] Re:A good source

Yes, indeed, and here is a better source for virtually all names (genus and species) published after 1977: http://www.organismnames.com/query.htm 130.216.1.16 19:47, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Hi

So, Marius: where abouts in the world are you? I'm in New Zealand. Perhaps we have easier access to different literature, so exchange could be useful??? I have access to Zootaxa...

Re: Hi

Well, I might ask you for a copy or two of articles from Israel Journal of Entomology, at some stage. I do try to do all the taxa in a group, but being in N.Z. means I have better access to N.Z. literature, so it makes sense to focus somewhat on N.Z. taxa, don't you think? Besides, my main purpose in doing this is for me - I need a place to put info on names and references for the species I see and identify, and those are mostly N.Z. species. I just can't be bothered adopting a name right now, and I don't want to use my own name, as I have one or two enemies who would try to stop me doing this if they could (since they want to extract funding $$$ for cataloging the N.Z. fauna, but I am doing it for free!)130.216.1.16 07:36, 7 November 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Rapala cassidyi

Marius,

Please can you look to Rapala cassidyi. Someone have change it and how can I add the species?

Thanks for your help. I can't do Rapala now, because I'm very busy with the books of Esperiana Band 13, 683 pp. and Esperiana Memoir 4, 303 pp.

Regards,

PeterR 19:54, 10 November 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Microcraspedius and Ochrodia

Marius,

Please can you look to Microcraspedius and Ochrodia? Someone have redirect to Ephysteris. Both genera are valid.

Thanks for your help

PeterR 11:30, 16 November 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Index to Organism Names

Marius,

I saw that 130.216.1.16 recommend the side Index to Organism Names. Don't forget this side is not reliable. I have often e-mailed Nigel from Reuter about species etc. that are not reliable. Every month they have a side with new species. This side is reliable.

Regards,

Peter

[edit] Thyatirinae

Marius,

How can I make a talk page for Thyatirinae?

Thanks., but how can people see that I have make a discussion page for Thyatirinae?

Knows people this or can I better in the page of Thyatirinae type for note on Thyatirinae see discussion button

Regards,

PeterR 17:59, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Redirection

Thanks for the link. I looked for it in Hlep, as I'd seen it somewhere before, but did not find it. Accassidy 18:43, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Genus

Marius,

You have allways told me that I must no make templates for Genera. Only one to the Familia. Now I see that you make for each genus a template. What is the status of Genera?

This is one of your answers to me.

You don't have to create a template for each Genus! Templates are just to save typing. Instead of template for Genus Polex you can write for each species:

PeterR 10:40, 13 December 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Angulopis puntalaraensis

Marius,

I have Angulopis puntalaraensis nominated for speedy deletion.

Thanks for your information

PeterR 18:10, 24 December 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Request for comment

There is presently a discussion on the use of daggers to denote extinct taxa. This will affect a large portion of the pages in wikispecies as the project grows so if possible please read the contributions so far and comment. Thanks --Kevmin 06:52, 11 January 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Acoelomorpha

I have undone your redirect to Bilateria of Acoelomorpha, as it serves no purpose and means that the user cannot read the information on the Acoelomorpha page. This information is what the user will want to know, and simply being redirected to the Bilateria page will hardly be instructive! Stho002 20:21, 11 January 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned page

I have added it. Yes, it's Belarusian. OhanaUnited^{Talk page} 02:22, 24 January 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Improving my edits

Hello Marius,

Thank you for getting in touch. I will separate the lines in the Name section with extra lines if you wish. Previous admins reporting on my work had not mentioned this. I will do it for new uploads, but I think my time would be better spent creating new pages rather than going back through previous ones and making such a minor change manually. When I quote references, I generally use the same style as is used in the document from which I am sourcing the information. This is invariably as you describe. If there is a particular page where you feel the reference needs to be re-formatted, please let me have the specifics. Thank you, Alan Accassidy 10:33, 26 January 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Hybrid name syntax

In reply to your question on my page.

For the hybrid syntax I'm following the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature (ICBN) APPENDIX I. NAMES OF HYBRIDS. Article H.5 [1]. I see no reason why not, but I'm not stubborn if Wikispecies agree to another convention. Epibase 15:07, 7 February 2009 (UTC)

[edit] response

Marius I thank you for the support. Such you know I add taxa only from bulletins and books or reliable sides what me cost a lot of money. In my opinion he is a frustrated man and because he did not get the permission for protected his sides he set up now others for vandalism. I have try to make me clear about the use of NOT reliable sides. Accassidy gave me herein support. But Meganmcarty don't want the support of me or Accissidy. Now the genus Cercyonis is a compleet mist with adding subspecies that don't excist. He get now help from Ed Uebel. If you now have a look too Cercyonis you can see what a mist it is. I'm a little bit frustrated now and only if meganmccarty use the wright sides I come back. Who support him don't matter, but those person must have affinity with the wright sides and information. 84.84.150.164 19:20, 8 February 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Inappropriate conduct

Hello,
I feel your behavior towards PeterR is inappropriate. Your arguments may be acceptable, but you must control the way you express them. My impression is PeterR is a serious contributor, even if his English is not always easily understood. Please try to be more polite. He really deserves an apology. Mariusm 09:34, 8 February 2009 (UTC)

I disagree - I initially simply stated my objection to Megan being told what to do in moderate fashion, but PeterR refused to accept my argument, so my wording got stronger. He still refused to aknowledge the point, threatened to quit, and invoked his 30,000+ edits, etc., so then my wording got even stronger still. Tell you what, I'll apologise to PeterR after he apologises to Megan! Particularly for the hypocrisy of complaining that he had to run around after Megan fixing up her edits, when I have had to do the same on several occasions with his edits! Stho002 20:50, 8 February 2009 (UTC)

Furthermore, PeterR (as an anon. IP) in the message above on this page still says 'only if meganmccarty use the wright [right] sides I come back'. This is not a proper attitude...
Stho002 21:24, 8 February 2009 (UTC)

Yes, I agree, and if you check out PeterR's talk page you will see that I have already apologised...
Stho002 07:26, 9 February 2009 (UTC)

Marius, Thanks for your support. I have accept the apology from Stho002 and go further with Wiki. You have right about my bad english. Since the sixties I never write in english again. I started with writing in english again here in Wiki. But we have discus a lot of subjects as References, help to others, synonyms etc. PeterR 09:21, 9 February 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Lycaon strikes again

• yet again Lycaon reverts edits for two important pages that I improved (Animalia and Platyhelminthes) with the effect of removing the phyla overview on the Animalia page, despite Mariusm's support (above) for such overviews, and his plea for Lycaon not to waste time targeting my edits. I have no wish to start a wheel war, but I have undone Lycaon's meddling yet again. It would be nice to see Lycaon actually add a significant number of new taxon pages...

Stho002 20:31, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Redirect

Marius,

How can I redirect a genus to a side where this genus is synonymized. For example Spragueia is now syn. nov. of Acontia (Acontia).

Spragueia is now a synonym of Acontia (Acontia)

Have I done it well?

PeterR 17:23, 26 February 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Temnothorax

Marius,

I have link the side Acta Zoologica Academiae Scientiarum Hungaricae to Temnothorax. On google you can have all the documents from these side for free 1994-2008.

PeterR 18:08, 26 February 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Thoughts?

[edit] Reference format

What is your opinion of the referencing format sampled at the bottom of this page? Andropogon bifidus. —Anonymous Dissident^Talk 12:14, 12 March 2009 (UTC)

Hello? What about Andropogon binatus? —Anonymous Dissident^Talk 14:22, 20 March 2009 (UTC)

How essential is the date of classification and/or discovery in a taxonomic reference (ie. "Steud. 1858")? And can you please refer me to a site or two online that you believe to be reliable for taxonomies; PeterR keeps telling me the site(s) I use are not reliable (zipecodezoo.com). —Anonymous Dissident^Talk 13:28, 24 March 2009 (UTC)

Hello again. I don't mind fixing up my errors; it's for the best of Wikispecies. Have I done the right thing with Andropogon acicularis, for example? I redirected the page and noted it as a synonym of Chrysopogon aciculatus. Did I do this correctly? —Anonymous Dissident^Talk 19:56, 31 March 2009 (UTC)

• The problem with the site you linked me to is that it appears to be incomplete when we compare it with Wikispecies' page on Andropogon. If I search for other websites to use for myself, how can I know if they're reliable or if they can be used? —Anonymous Dissident^Talk 11:59, 9 April 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Unassigned (Notodontidae)|Unassigned

Marius,

How can I make a template for Unassigned (Notodontidae)|Unassigned?

I have found the mistake. In the family page was written Unassigned Notodontidae|Unassigned. Now I have made Unassigned (Notodontidae)|Unassigned.

Regards,

Peter

[edit] my reply

Please see Village Pump Stho002 07:40, 23 April 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Boarmiini

Marius

Please can you look to the Boarmiini? There is something wrong but I don't see it.

I have found the mistake. You don't have to look anymore.

Regards,

PeterR 11:57, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Award

Sure, you don't need to ask me before handing out awards. OhanaUnited^{Talk page} 01:02, 26 April 2009 (UTC)

[edit] information

Marius

I'm missing your contributes. Are you sick? Or have you holliday.

Regards,

PeterR 11:20, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Main Page draft

Looks very good. I still need to figure out how to add the ZooKeys collaboration announcement though since it doesn't really go hand-in-hand with the new page layout. OhanaUnited^{Talk page} 05:04, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

We should also place the 5 pictures into a template and transclude it onto the main page. This way non-admins can still update (but we have to turn off cascade protection) OhanaUnited^{Talk page} 05:38, 8 October 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Holotype

Marius,

I see you are back. I have seen your design and its lookes gratefull. I have a question about Holotype. Is it possible to make a redirekt from the species side to the Holotype side? What I mean is this. When I add Holotype: NSMT and I push on NSMT i come in the Holotype list. I have to scroll till i have found NSMT. If it don't exist i have to add the Museum. Can it be made : If the Museum don't exist in the catalogue it stays red and if the Museum exist it colours blue and you arrived direkt to the Museum?. (Like Author)

Regards,

PeterR 13:21, 8 October 2009 (UTC)

[edit] re: References format

Thanks for your advice. I try to know, which form of citing is correct in English (I met many), so didn't use any :) From now, I'll be using form you wrote. BTW, do you know anything about plans, in wikispecies, to collect references in e.g. catalog form, something like taxon authorities. I thought to use templates for references. Then, there will be no problem with formatting. Ark (talk page) 17:15, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Main Page revision

It will take place, but not now. I have 4 assignments plus 1 quiz next week. And then that begins the exam period which will end on the 17th (also my birthday) so I will be busy for next half a month. OhanaUnited^{Talk page} 05:36, 29 November 2009 (UTC)
