Heuglin's Gull
Thanks! What I really wanted to know was which (if any) of the various options is generally accepted by ornithologists... or failing that, what the basis for the controversy might be. Cheers, -- Visviva 23:47, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

--AnselmoD79 07:37, 14 January 2007 (UTC) This is coming along nicely. I am working on a similar topic that I think would be good to try pair together and perhaps work together as well. My page is "Influential Women" and currently is broken down by Notable firsts, Country, Profession. I just started it so it needs a good deal of work, but it seems like this could work well together. I am a bit new to this so I am sorry if I posted in the wrong place.

Would it be possible for you to look over Whitton Bridge Pasture article I've been working on. Thinking of nominating it for Good Article so any advice would be much appreciated. Many thanks. - Suicidalhamster 23:15, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
Mendip Hills
Hi, I've been doing some editing of Mendip Hills & have put it up for peer review (comments welcome) prior to going for FA status. Can I pick your expert knowledge... in doing it I've come accross the British National Vegetation Classification which I know nothing about. The Mendips article says "There are three nationally important semi-natural habitats which are characteristic of the area: Ash-Maple woodland (often with abundant small-leafed lime (Tilia), Calcareous grassland and Mesotrophic grassland. Much of the Mendip Hills is open calcareous grassland which supports a large variety of wild flowering plants and insects. Grazing by rabbits (Lagomorpha), sheep (Ovis aries) and cattle maintains the grassland habitat. Some of the area is deciduous ancient woodland."
Some bits link to the BNVC system & some don't. Would you be kind enough to take a look (particularly at the ecology section) & check I'm getting this right & whether I should be using more specific bits of the classification system. Thanks.— Rod talk 21:07, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

There is no need to create an article for each entry in the classification. Have you considered merging them upward to one page for each category, as on this page? Chris cheese whine 23:59, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
- In the meantime, until you have the time to address this on talkj page, please stop adding new articles for each individual entry in the classification. Chris cheese whine 04:28, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
- Sorry, you seem to be misunderstanding how things work around here. When someone is questioning the addition of a large amount of material, you stop adding it as a matter of course until the issue is resolved. I can't find any record of the consensus you speak of. In fact, the only things I can find support not having a separate article on every single entry in the classification (including amongst others ]
OK, seriously, this isn't funny. STOP creating these articles until this point is resolved on that talk page. Chris cheese whine 03:00, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for your edits of Mendip Hills. I have now put it up as a Featured Article Candidate & comments, support or opposition is being recorded at Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Mendip Hills.— Rod talk 10:49, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks for the comment - what appears in the lead that isn't elsewhere?. I've left the NVC links as is but if you think it needs improving please let me know. — Rod talk 11:45, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks for the clarification- I've done a bit about AONB v National park, but I'm not sure how to address the comment re "those interested in natural history". I would also like a map but can't make one & can't find a free one I can use. You are right about the NVC link as I couldn't find suitable NVC pages for the other types of vegetation.— Rod talk 12:21, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

My revert
By the time you read this message it will be done. (On RC Patrol, as soon as I clicked the rollback button, I wished that I hadn't). ~Steptrip 17:40, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
- Since you seem to know a lot about the subject of Lobella erinus, do you think that I should move the page to "Lobella Erinus" with a capital "e" in the title? ~Steptrip 17:43, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
