Channa

Could you please use Channa aurantimaculata as template for your new additions (look at the details)? thnx. - Lycaon 22:16, 3 November 2005 (UTC) Could you be a bit more explicit? I am a Newby Canelli 00:16, 4 November 2005 (UTC)

The work you've been doing is appreciated, but you may have seen that I have been 'wikifying' just about all your entries. Try to get them in line with the pages that are already there. We try to adhere as much as possible to a standard layout.

Sometime it is just about details (like not abbreviating the species name on species level), sometimes it's the avoidance of subjective language (don't use expressions as "...the world's best..."), and sometimes it's more substantial issues like not using interwiki (vernacular) links when they don't yet exist. I'ld suggest you use one of the adapted version of your contributions as a guide for do's and don'ts. Lycaon 06:42, 4 November 2005 (UTC)

Q: What is the idea behing this interwiking: Channa aurantimaculata Musikasinthorn, 2000? Is not something you complained yourself above? --Canelli 20:04, 8 November 2005 (UTC)

To quote UtherSRG: "...while a red link will lead to article creation, Interwiki links all look the same: one can not tell if it leads to an existing article or not.". (UtherSRG's talk page)

The likes of Musikasinthorn are there because a catalog of taxon authorities is being constructed (mainly by Open2universe sofar). These link as interwikis when appropriate.. — Lycaon 21:41, 8 November 2005 (UTC)

Channa authors

If they are already in Taxon Authorities with a link then I do not need any information. Otherwise I would like to have the complete name, date of birth, date of death, country they are from. If you have other biographical information (for example: where they worked, where they went to school) that would also be good. Thank you. - Open2universe 13:36, 9 November 2005 (UTC)
