replies: text: That sounds like a portmanteau word made from "pill" and "millipede" to me, in which case they are probably just millipedes that have the ability to curl up nto a ball or "pill" like some woodlice. DavidFarmbrough (talk) 13:32, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Pillipedes 

message: Ive been poking around wikipedia regarding centipedes and particular house centipedes and im a bit confused. It seems like there must be an error somewhere, but I have no idea where the error is. The house centipede article lists the subphylum as Uniramia, stating it is a variety of centipede. In the Uniramia article it states the the subphylum contains hexapods and myriapods, including centipedes. However the centipede article lists the subphylum as myriapod with no mention of Uniramia as the subphylum at all. So im lest confused, what is the real subphylum of centipedes including the house centipede, myriapod or Uniramia, and is myriapod really a subcategory of Uniramia at all, or are they both subphylums. I'm completely confused, and thing this is a major mistake that might need fixing. Debeo Morium 07:49, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I just noticed the same thing. I'm in my college class right now and I decided to look it up.  My professor says that the subphylum is Uniramia.--FUNKAMATIC  (talk) 15:05, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I guess that the Uniramia is an old subphylum that has since been replaced by the Myriapoda. If the house centipede article lists their subphylum as Uniramia it should probably be changed.--FUNKAMATIC  (talk) 15:20, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

message: This article lists both that there are 12 000 species and 13 000 species of myriapods. Obviously, these statements can not both be correct.--Gunnar Mikalsen Kvifte (talk) 17:01, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

message: If some have "fewer than ten legs" as the article suggests, is it not possible to be more specific? If it's eight legs then we should say so. DavidFarmbrough (talk) 13:33, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

message: OF COURSE the organism IS a "millipede"... but maybe it would be worth editing the note on the origen of the name, to point out that a "millipede" really "ought" to be an organism with a thousandTH of a foot, and that the name should have been "kilopede". I think this could be done humourously without degrading the serious tone of Wikipedia, and I think (seriously) that the metric system is too important to leave this source of possible confusion not addressed.

replies: text: On the contrary, the Latin prefix milli- can be used to mean either "thousand" or "thousandth". It is only the SI that insists on distinguishing the two, using the Greek-derived kilo- for the larger. That in no way prevents one form coining words using milli- to mean thousand. I have never seen anyone propose kilopede, even humourously (other than yourself), so it has no place in Wikipedia. --Stemonitis (talk) 06:36, 20 October 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Milli / Kilo 

message: The opening paragraph states, "The group contains 13,000 species, all of which are terrestrial". It should be noted that early forms such as the Eoarthropleurids were aquatic. It would be simplest to note it parenthetically in that sentence, but I have no idea how to break up the closing hyperlink (which includes the period).NadaRama (talk) 21:02, 11 April 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: The aquatic Eoarthropleurid claim may be true but needs verification. I've been reading a lot about fossil millipedes lately (although I am by no means an expert), and it seems to be an outdated assumption based on the presumed thin cuticles which were later decided to be shed exoskeletons. The wiki-information on fossil myriapods is still very tentative, and most sources are archived links to dead urls, not exactly current, trustworthy sources. See Arthropleuridea and Eoarthropleura for some recent updates. - Animalparty (talk) 04:08, 25 October 2013 (UTC)
