thread_title:  Proposed merger with WikiProject Squirrels 

message: I am currently working on an article about a breed of rabbit, the English Spot. I believe this article may fall in to the WikiProject Mammals/Pocket pets work group. I was looking to further improve this article and was wondering if I could get some feed back on what sections the article is missing or which sections could use further expansion. The article is still missing a picture, and I'm currently working on trying to get one put up. If anyone from the project would like to help that would be great.

message: I am mixed up regarding this species, are Geomys texensis (iucnredlist.org) (MSW3) and Pappogeomys (Cratogeomys) gymnurus (iucnredlist.org) (MSW3) the same animal? Iucnredlist.org calls both species "Llano Pocket Gopher", but MSW3 calls Geomys texensis "Central Texas Pocket Gopher". The Latin names direct to different WP articles, but both claim the same common name "Llano Pocket Gopher". Using this information, I think Pappogeomys gymnurus should redirect to Llano Pocket Gopher, and Geomys texensis should be moved to Central Texas Pocket Gopher. Is this correct? Regards. --Tombstone (talk) 02:22, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

message: I propose that the Wikipedia:WikiProject Mammals/Pocket pets work group be broken into two distinct groups, for rodents and lagomorphs. Would there be any opposition? John Carter (talk) 21:47, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

message: As you may have heard, we at the Wikipedia 1.0 Editorial Team recently made some changes to the assessment scale, including the addition of a new level.  The new description is available at WP:ASSESS.
*The new C-Class represents articles that are beyond the basic Start-Class, but which need additional references or cleanup to meet the standards for B-Class.  
*The criteria for B-Class have been tightened up with the addition of a rubric, and are now more in line with the stricter standards already used at some projects.  
*A-Class article reviews will now need more than one person, as described here.  
Each WikiProject should already have a new C-Class category at :Category:C-Class_articles.  If your project elects not to use the new level, you can simply delete your WikiProject's C-Class category and clarify any amendments on your project's assessment/discussion pages.  The bot is already finding and listing C-Class articles. 
Please leave a message with us if you have any queries regarding the introduction of the revised scheme.  This scheme should allow the team to start producing offline selections for your project and the wider community within the next year.  Thanks for using the Wikipedia 1.0 scheme!

message: This message is being sent to each WikiProject that participates in the WP 1.0 assessment system. On Saturday, January 23, 2010, the WP 1.0 bot will be upgraded. Your project does not need to take any action, but the appearance of your project's summary table will change. The upgrade will make many new, optional features available to all WikiProjects. Additional information is available at the WP 1.0 project homepage. — Carl (CBM · talk) 03:47, 22 January 2010 (UTC)

message: *Create new page(s):
**Rabbit care and nutrition (to include housing, coprophagy and digestive system)
**Rabbit health and diseases  (to include vet care, use of disease as control, etc)
**Rabbit breeding and genetics
*Improve rabbit by moving information to european rabbit and adding in more non-european rabbit specific information.
* Merge european rabbit, domestic rabbit and house rabbit, moving info to new pages above.
*Take out care and behaviour sections from pages on rabbit breeds  (apart from breed specific requirements) and merge these pages where there is insufficient information for individual pages. If these get bigger they can be put back in individual articles.

This is a neutral RfC on a question left unanswered by MOS:LIFE (on purpose in 2012–2014, pending "later discussion"). It is now later, and lack of resolution of the question has held up MOS:ORGANISMS in draft proposal state for 6 years.  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼  22:04, 9 December 2018 (UTC)

message: Hello and greetings from the maintainers of the WP 1.0 Bot! As you may or may not know, we are currently involved in an overhaul of the bot, in order to make it more modern and maintainable. As part of this process, we will be rewriting the web tool that is part of the project. You might have noticed this tool if you click through the links on the project assessment summary tables.
We'd like to collect information on how the current tool is used by....you! How do you yourself and the other maintainers of your project use the web tool? Which of its features do you need? How frequently do you use these features? And what features is the tool missing that would be useful to you? We have collected all of these questions at this Google form where you can leave your response. Walkerma (talk) 04:24, 27 October 2019 (UTC)
