Hayashi

Alan,

Hayashi add a lot of species etc. from Japanese Lycaenidae etc. The species are added from original bulletins and good, but he forget to add the species or subspecies in the tables. I have tried to explain it to him, but he don't understand english. So we have to controll his contributions.

By the way, my name comes to in a bulletin namely the next Shilap Revista de Lepidopterologica in an overview of new species from Razowski. He will thanks me for the contribtions I send to him.

Regards,

Darasana etc.

Alan,

I have redirect them to Arhopala. Reason: Some guys add species to those genera. Now I redirect all the synonyms genera to the master genus.

I have done the genera like the species. If you want delete them it is ok to me. But we have to work all levels on the same way.

kinoshitai again

We had a flare-up on these pages again, so I protected them until you would have a chance to sort it. I have found out something that may shed light on the situation, though. Long version at Talk:Poritia erycinoides kinoshitai. It looks like he means Takanami and Seki elevated to species, but he kept attributing it to Treadaway in his edits here.

Amblypodia anita andamanica

we have a template for homonyms ... might as well use it ... Stho002 (talk) 19:29, 27 November 2011 (UTC)

Deudorix

Alan,

You can split them if you want. But that some people don't agree with Williams is not a reason. It is for me a reason if they published it with arguments.

I have now opdate Erebidae again after a bulletin of R. Zahiri et al. published 2012 in Systematic Entomology 37 (1): 102-124.

The Erebidae change a lot in Subfamilies etc.

Poritia phama

Alan

You described the type by Poritia phama as holotype, but Takanami designated in 1989 a lectotype (page 23) in Tyô to ga 40 (1): 23-80. I have add the abstract and full article.

Subgenera

Alan, yes, I take your point, and will add it to my list of "things to do". Please do bear in mind that Wikispecies the way it has been, is not necessarily optimal. Treating subgenera as such in page titles is suboptimal because (1) it makes it hard to automatically link to the species in external databases; (2) if the subgenus gets raised to full genus, then more complex changes are necessary to make the change on WS; and (3) it confounds subgenera with disambiguation. If we don't put subgenera in page titles, then there is little point including them in lists of species. Note that the subgenera still are used, but it just becomes a rank between genera and species with no influence on the species binomials themselves... Stho002 (talk) 21:17, 7 May 2012 (UTC)

Arhopala anthelus paradisii

Alan

The holotype is in Collection Treadaway (SMFL). see Entomologische Zeitschrift, 1990, 100 pages 168-171. If you want I can add those information.

Article appropiate

Hello,

Is this article appropriate in wikispecies?

Thank you. --84.121.18.32 19:23, 13 June 2012 (UTC)

No, not really. I have noted it as a candidate for deletion in 7 days. Accassidy (talk) 10:17, 14 June 2012 (UTC)

List of ornamental aquatic plants in Venezuela

Hi what type of list are allowed. If they are. Thank you. --Veronidae (talk) 21:20, 14 June 2012 (UTC)

Can you please delete this List of Poriferans of Venezuela.

The I went because I thought it could be only for species names. Forgiveness. --Veronidae (talk) 22:09, 14 June 2012 (UTC)

You can use categories for this stuff ... Stho002 (talk) 23:35, 14 June 2012 (UTC)

I have copied it over to here: [[Category:List of Poriferans of Venezuela]], and deleted the old page. Now Veronidae needs to add [[Category:List of Poriferans of Venezuela]] to each of the species pages ... Stho002 (talk) 23:42, 14 June 2012 (UTC)

PS: I had to copy it over manually, because you can't move to a category page ... Stho002 (talk) 23:43, 14 June 2012 (UTC)

Celastrina neglectamajor

Alan,

I have add this species from Funet. I have only bulletins from those species i have add type locality and holotype. It is a NSG Voucher Specimen (Wahlberg).

Creon

Alan,

You can change it. I change information after the latest bulletin the same way as you. Please make a link.

I don't see the type locality and holotype. Are those details not anymore important?

PeterR

I have blocked Peter for 3 days for threatening me out of the blue over something he hasn't tried talking to me about! That block will run its course. It is a slap on the wrist, that's all .... Stho002 (talk) 22:58, 11 November 2012 (UTC)

Well, I have lifted the block, and given him a stern warning instead, but if he's not careful, he might well end up with a block longer than 3 days ... Stho002 (talk) 23:45, 11 November 2012 (UTC)

Alan,

1. What is the status of Shirozuozephyrus?

Tribolium

Hi Accassidy, yesterdag I found out a number of species of the beetle genus Tribolium MacLeay was listed under the Poaceae genus Tribolium Desv. When I was busy correcting the errors, Stho002 decided to create two new pages for both genera, and to copy-past the contents of the old articles Tribolium and Tribolium Macleay to the new articles. By doing so, he destroyed the history of the latter and left the history of the first one in the disambiguation page. I think it would have been easier and more correct to move these two pages, including their history, to new pages and create a new disambiguation page. I also feel it is not a good idea to unnecessarily destroy the histories of those pages.

I asked Stephen on his talk page to correct his "error", although I did not get the feel of a very cooperative administrator when I read fragments of the discussions on his talk page. He indeed rather unfriendly turned down my request. Can I ask another administrator to do this? You for example? I gave justification for my request on Stephens talk page. The last reaction I got from him was "LOL!" It seems he's an expert in invertebrate taxonomy but lacks a bit in social skills. Hope to hear from you (here). Cheers, Wikiklaas (talk) 20:50, 7 January 2013 (UTC)

As you seem to be active in distant bouts, I already asked a steward I know for a solution. No need for further actions. Sorry to have bothered you. Wikiklaas (talk) 19:22, 9 January 2013 (UTC)
