Talk:Blue iguana

message: This bit just seems silly.
:"The blue iguana is one of the longest-living species of lizard (possibly up to 69 years). The record is 67 years."
A lot of things are possible, but if it has literally never happened with any known specimen, then why not 70? or 71? 75 is good because it's 3/4ths of 100.24.207.232.113 (talk) 06:55, 28 January 2019 (UTC)
thread_title: Possibly 100

message: Lead: Because it was semantically awkward, and on the principle that all adverbs are bad, I removed "strongly". I tried "closely", but that's empty cliche. I tried "diligently", but I realized that even I don't know what that means. "Hard" seemed too plain and to go without saying, one would hope. I think it moves more easily unencumbered by a modifier, but the primary editor can have a go if he wants. --Milkbreath 10:40, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Passed GA nomination

message: I always like to put scientific name in parentheses rather than comma, as this makes it less confusing if more subordinate clauses (and hence commas) are used. I'll look for other tweaks. Cheers, Casliber (talk · contribs) 10:28, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Some feedback 

message: This isn't how text is cited, removed here to be examined and fixed:
"A nesting female devotes a lot of time and energy to finding the right spot for her nest chamber. As she digs, she blocks the tunnel behind her with loose soil. She tunnels until she finds exactly the right depth, temperature and humidity for the incubation of her eggs.  Once satisfied, she digs out an underground nest chamber, and works the soil into a fine base usually about a foot below the surface. In total darkness she lays anywhere from one, to twenty or more eggs: the older, larger females are able to produce the most."[44]
