  • "Aquarium box" for fish articles. Several wikipedia in other languages have boxes for aquarium care information (temperature, pH, water hardness, size of fish, etc.). Should we apply that to ours too? See more info and discuss here.

Kribensis

[edit]

Hi Terrapin -

Just a heads up re: Kribensis. I changed the name as the common name is used in Australia for Pelvicachromis pulcher, P. taeniatus and P. subocellatus. I just hadnt got around to writing the Kribensis stub (which now exists). Also (just for interest) you may like to know the "official" fishbase common name for P. pulcher is "rainbow krib". Apologies again if I sounded harsh re: homocentricity, it wasnt meant to be jumping down your throat :D! MidgleyDJ 08:48, 21 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Again, no need to apologize. I agree that Fishbase common names are, in many cases, not really common at all. The kribensis stub was a good idea; maybe that could be one of the tools we use in finding a solution to this issue (creating stubs with an ambiguous common name that links to several scientific name alternatives)?--Terrapin83 05:41, 22 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Our parent wikiproject, the WikiProject Fishes, is having an important discussion about the policy of "Titles of fish species articles". This policy covers the selection of scientific and common names as article titles. It will have a significant impact on a large number of fish articles. See or join the discussion here. Related to this discussion is the title change of the article Mayan cichlid to Cichlasoma urophthalmus.
  • Aquarium, a featured article since 2005, has been proposed for a review which may lead to the article being de-featured. See the proposal and discuss here. Discuss how to improve the article here.
