thread_title:  [[:File:Argiope sp.jpg]] to appear as POTD soon 

message: I always thought the "function" of these balls of web in the center of webs was obvious: It's last night's web, collected into a pile.  The pile itself serves no purpose.  But where else was the spider going to put all that web?  Just throw it on the ground, to waste?  I've seen spiders make these things;  They take their existing web, and pull it inwards towards the center of the web, effectively destroying it to make way for a new, stickier web.  The pattern at which they destroy their old web leads to the pattern of the "web decoration" in the center.  But often it is just an ugly white mass.  The decoration gets larger and larger every time they take down an old web.  I do not think they are using this decoration for any purpose, i think it is the product of making a new web every night.  moeburn (talk) 15:28, 24 October 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: I think I read long ago that they eat and recycle the old silk. The decoration is too tidily structured. Close observation will show the stabilimentum being added as the last step of construction. No ? [citations needed]--195.137.93.171 (talk) 02:40, 23 January 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  Function 

message: Two paragraphs above "adaptation" the subject of the paragraph suddenly changes to first-person-plural ("we"). This reads as if it were copy-and-pasted directly from a study, or at the very least seems inconsistent with style guidelines. Changing it will not be as simple as simply removing and replacing all instances; of course the entire grammar structure needs to be fixed. With that in mind, I didn't want to make any edits until I was certain there wasn't some strange reason behind it.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.109.183.18 (talk) 18:16, 15 December 2014 (UTC)

message: I think the title is ambiguous. The stabilimentum is not only a "decoration" as shown in the article. I suggest to move the page at "Stabilimentum" as in other wiki appears, instead of being it a redirect. --Lorenzo Longo (talk) 19:55, 3 April 2022 (UTC)
