A tag has been placed on Long-billed Thrasher, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template Zamora et al. on greenfinches or goldfinches?Hi. Your further-reading contributions are very impressive, but I'm wondering why you added Zamora et al., "Rhodopechys obsoleta (desert finch): a pale ancestor of greenfinches (Carduelis spp.) according to molecular phylogeny" to Lawrence's Goldfinch, since that article seems to be about greenfinches. Does it discuss Lawrence's Goldfinch? Thanks. —JerryFriedman 17:30, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
When the number of papers on a species is low, I put all what I find even if there is a slight reference to the subject. In Zamora et al., there is a slight reference to the Lawrence's Goldfinch in a table p. 449. In any case, I learned that adding this kind of long list of references (as I did for many species, sometimes with very long lists) is not in the scope of Wikipedia, so I stopped doing this. Contributers of a species could delete them if they want to. I'm new to Wikipedia, I'm learning. CephasE 23:17, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

Aspen Parkland MapHello there I'm not quite sure if this will be appropriate for a user talk page, so please forgive me if it is not. I just want to thank you for creating the aspen parkland distribution map and adding it to the article. The map is excellent and I believe it will really help readers better understand just where the biome is located. Again, thanks, the map is excellent. 1brettsnyder (talk) 23:11, 25 July 2010 (UTC) many thanks for the mapThe maps you put in the Arctic coastal tundra and Alaska-St. Elias Range tundra look great. thank you Istanbuljohnm (talk) 02:55, 28 September 2010 (UTC) POTD notificationHi Simon, Just to let you know that the Featured Picture File:Bufo americanus PJC1.jpg is due to make an appearance as Picture of the Day on December 18, 2011.

If you get a chance, you can check and improve the caption at Template:POTD/2012-02-26. —howcheng {chat} 22:15, 25 February 2012 (UTC) I noticed someone removed your range map for Blue Wildebeests. I checked and indeed it does not accurately reflect the true range. For exmaple, the largest concentration in the Serengeti and Masai Mara aren't included. Was the map the range of a subspecies only? If so, can you add the ranges of the other subspecies? Regards. Dger (talk) 01:20, 20 March 2012 (UTC) Giant forest hog mapGreat work on the animal maps! I have added a note on your map for the giant forest hog [1] (I have not added a comment in French because my French is very limited). As mentioned in Handbook of the Mammals of the World, northern DR Congo and entire range in Central African Republic are H. m. rimator. H. m. meinertzhageni is not found in Central African Republic and in DR Congo it is only found in the far east. Consequently, the border between the two subspecies is in DR Congo: Very roughly, if you use File:DCongoNumbered.png as a basis, #9, #11, east #8, and east #10 are H. m. meinertzhageni. West and central #10, and #3 are H. m. rimator. Cheers, RN1970 (talk) 18:05, 27 April 2012 (UTC)
