message: Hello everybody
According to the references I think it should me merged. Here is a section (Taxonomic note) from the Horseface loach article:
Under Maurice Kottelat's review and revision of the loaches in 2012, this species name is considered to be a junior synonym of A. dialuzona.Kottelat, M. (2012): Conspectus cobitidum: an inventory of the loaches of the world (Teleostei: Cypriniformes: Cobitoidei).  The Raffles Bulletin of Zoology, Suppl.

Talk:Yoyo loach

message: Hello, a bit surprised that I am the first to start a "discussion" on this topic.  Anyway, I am a clown loach freak, but discovered yoyos by accident.
Question: on this site, and in a few books (I spent the afternoon at Borders Bookstore) -- there was mention of an aggressive streak in yoyos.  I have never noted this behavior.  Subject to red-tail shark, bala, and rainbows; also algae eaters -- my yoyos would hide in the plants.  Without such aggressors my yoyos would be all about the aquarium socializing with clowns as much as its own species.  I have never seen aggressive behavior.  Any loach owner knows that their curiosity might disturb sensitive fish, but aggression?  
So, I am just wondering if any other yoyo enthusiasts have instances / stories of such aggressive behavior.
I have a loach that I bought when it was very small.  I placed it in my 29 gallon tank along with a pleco, tiger barbs, mini puffers (soo cute and harmless), a red tailed shark, a gourami, a rainbow shark and 2 cory cats.  In a time of about 6 months my loach is now 4-5 inches long and very active.  His behavior I believe is on the aggressive side.  He swimms up to the sharks and makes them run and hide, constantly chases the tiger barbs, and darts out around the tank scaring my other fish.  The smaller tank mates are uneffected by him, like they don't exist to him.  He picks on the fish that are same size or bigger (except the tiger barbs).   ----Amber----  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.110.209.81 (talk) 23:33, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Dace

message: Per a lot of discussion at wt:DPL about similar pages, I am just now converting this from a dab page to a wp:SIA because all of the fish are one type of thing (fishes commonly called dace), which is needed as a regular article, meaning not a dab.  It is not proper for mainspace articles to link to dab pages.
This article was a disambiguation page with inbound dablinks from the following articles:
*A Story of Floating Weeds
*Lake Tazawa
*Mauses Creek
*Naka River (Tochigi Ibaraki)
*Palmer Creek (Yamhill River)
*Tennessee Aquarium
*Towanda Creek
The inbound links are "fixed" by changing the page from dab to sia, as there are no longer any dablinks.  But, it would still be good to check those articles and see if their link could be revised to pick one specific species of dace, if it is known which was intended. --doncram 15:49, 10 August 2015 (UTC)

The diversity of various types of animals, which inhabit and populate a defined ground or water area, is the animal kingdom. The first reports on the richness and diversity of animal life in Azerbaijan can be found in travel notes of Eastern travelers. Animal carvings on architectural monuments, ancient rocks and stones survived up to the present times. The first information on the animal kingdom of Azerbaijan was collected during the visits of naturalists to Azerbaijan in 17th century. Unlike fauna, the concept of animal kingdom covers not only the types of animals, but also the number of individual species.

Although I am not an expert, the eye of the pictured fish did not seem as low to me as its genus name Hypophthalmichthys implies it should be nor as low as described in other places.  Because of this, I went looking for other pictures, and I found many.

As you hover the cursor over each picture, you learn where it's from.  I chose several that I assume should be authoritative:   
The fish in each of these three photos looks considerably different from ours. Not only is the eye much lower on the head (as its name says it should be), but also the tail, which can clearly be seen in two of the three, is much more forked than the one in our picture.
There is a second photo of a silver carp in section 4 "In North America" of our own article, and it, too, looks much more like the three I list above.  It is shown enlarged at:

message: In these edits I cleaned up the article. I removed infoboxes since two of the organisations listed were not unions, yet we were using labor union infoboxes. I also cleaned up the lead, because in February 2019 there was an apparent coup to divert the focus of this article from Indian cinematographers in general to promote the Indian Society of Cinematographers. This is an ongoing problem that I've noticed across a variety of IP addresses, (like 49.*) but I think it's a relatively small group of people. Some of what they're doing is going to not only biographical articles, but also to film articles and stuffing "Indian Society of Cinematographers" and "ISC" into them, often erroneously, like by misusing the  parameter of Template:Infobox person. They have never discussed these changes, and it is clearly promotional. For scope, see this report.
I have also reorganised the list of organisations based on when they were founded, with the oldest organisation at the top.
