Talk:Scotch bonnet (sea snail)

message: Grammar looks alright, but I miss the old image. It was beautiful. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 22:50, 16 January 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes. They were lovely images but... although they were uploaded to the Commons as Semicassis granulata, it turned out that the snails were from Italy, and so they were images of a similar but Mediterranean species, Semicassis undulata. Those images are now illustrating that species article stub, which is brand new. Best, Invertzoo (talk) 16:07, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: The Mediterranean sea snail is now considered to be a subspecies of the western Atlantic one, so the nice image is back again! Invertzoo (talk) 21:02, 7 March 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: But now that snail is considered to be a separate species once again, so it is gone again! Invertzoo (talk) 14:09, 30 January 2019 (UTC)

message: The current Distribution text implies that the west coast of Florida is part of the East coast of USA. Should this be changed? --Ettrig (talk) 11:53, 19 January 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: No, it should not be changed. The East Coast of the United States is defined as the coast of the eastern states. Likewise the Gulf Coast of the United States is defined as the coast of the Gulf states. Peculiarly, this means the the coast of Florida belongs to both the Gulf Coast and the East Coast, so the separation made in this article is a bit awkward. --Ettrig (talk) 12:57, 19 January 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Geez Ettrig - you are not going schizophrenic on us.... are you!!!? I still have high hopes for the Bog Turtle and was counting on your help. --JimmyButler (talk) 19:47, 19 January 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I think you mean dual personality. This confusion is mentioned in schizophrenia. I still think it is very odd that Miami is considered to be on the Gulf Coast. I issued an ultimatum concerning plagiarizing in Bog Turtle. As a consequence I moved focus when they persisted. Very good article though. Thought your project has ended for this time. Really hope you come back in the fall. --Ettrig (talk) 20:03, 19 January 2010 (UTC)

replies: text: This is the 2nd time Mr Butler requests that his AP Biology students write Wikipedia articles. I hope he will do this again. I do not hope he is going inactive on Wikipedia in between the AP Biology courses. But I expect him to do and hope he will come back with a new class after that. What am I missing here? --Ettrig (talk) 12:09, 20 January 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: No, no, come back to the bog turtle?--NYMFan69-86 (talk) 01:58, 21 January 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Gulf coast in Florida

message: The "Distribution" section mentions that the shell "occurs."  I know this is nit-picky, and someone better acquainted with shells/general copyediting should probably weigh in, but this seems like strange phrasing.  Strombollii (talk) 18:10, 16 February 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Hi Strombollii. Thanks for your comment. I think "occurs in" is a very commonly-used phrase in these kinds of contexts. If you google "species occurs in North Atlantic" you will get, for example, from the Encyclopedia of Marine Mammals: "the northern counterpart occurs in both the North Atlantic and North Pacific". You can also use the phrase "is found in". However I just now rewrote the intro sentence of the Distribution section to add more info and that avoided the necessity of using a phrase like this.

message: I can't work out what happened to the archive of talk page messages prior to January 2010. I know there were extensive discussions on here  from the class projects, but the archive page is empty, even though the edit history shows all the messages. Invertzoo (talk) 11:09, 20 May 2015 (UTC)
