message: I believe that the nudibranch eggs thumbnailed on the left take away from the visual presentation as you scroll down the page.
Does anyone else think a different thumbnail would be appropriate?  
Also, needs more Chromodoris Elisabethina

message: Order v. suborder?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.0.156.173 (talk) 15:59, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: According to species:Nudibranchia, it is a suborder of order Opisthobranchia, which article agrees.  And, as you note, this article's lead and taxobox contradict one another.  I'll update the taxobox, as most other agree it's a suborder, but welcome review: I'm in no way even trying to keep up with the taxonomists.  :-P  — the Sidhekin (talk) 16:20, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text:  Ah, right, I had to update the subdivision ranks as well.  And, it turns out, their names as well.  Opisthobranchia and [[species:Nudibranchia] both give two infraorders, so I went with that.  Again, I'm just copying info around, so someone who knows this stuff should review.  — the Sidhekin (talk) 16:32, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

message: I edited this section for readability and removed the discussion about whether the evolutionary theory of aposematism 'makes sense'.  This deleted material (quoted below) seems more appropriate for the aposematism entry itself. BMbiobear (talk) 01:56, 27 December 2010 (UTC)

message: What eats nudibranches?  Yes, they may be toxic, but so are the things they eat.  That suggests that they suffer predation themselves.  No? - Denimadept (talk) 21:18, 27 September 2011 (UTC)

message: anonIP added "A unique feature of the nudibranch is that it can secrete sulphuric acid." to the lead. Frankly, seems improbable as a defining feature of the group, but not inconceivable (with some qualifications) for some species. Either way, citation would be needed.

message: I just now contracted the article Sea slug to a disambiguation page, and now have this large quote left over. Any suggestions as to where it might be useful, (if anywhere?). Invertzoo (talk) 15:33, 13 May 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Where to put this? 

message: The introduction to this section contains so many poorly chosen words and outright errors that I can't help but feel that it is intentional vandalism. 
For example, '...wiggly, silly looking marine gastropod molluscs which also happen to be little guys.'
'Little guys'? Clearly this is someone having fun at the readers' expense. 
The following descends into outright mockery and falsehood:
'The word "see rabbit" comes from the English rabbit and the English see.
'See rabbits are often casually called ocean bunnies.'
Of course it's 'sea rabbit'. And while there is a species of sea slug referred to as 'ocean bunny' it's only one species, not all nudibranaches.
Unfortunately, this page now requires a heavy revision from someone well versed in malacology, which I am not.— Preceding unsigned comment added by RobotBoy66 (talk • contribs) 
:Thanks for noticing this, the last edit on the page introduced all of these changes so I have reverted them as vandalism and notified the user, particularly given the attempt to hide the change as a minor edit. |→ Spaully ~talk~  09:53, 1 September 2021 (UTC)
