 * Either way, you need to use a bulleted list format  User:Dunkleosteus77 &#124;push to talk 15:14, 25 September 2018 (UTC)


 * This sort of pointless list, of enormous size and basically no encyclopedic purpose, and of course no citations, is exactly what Wikipedia does not need. Chiswick Chap (talk) 15:42, 25 September 2018 (UTC)


 * It pretend to be printable version for field workers.Cloud forest (talk) 15:49, 25 September 2018 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cloud forest (talk • contribs) 15:48, 25 September 2018 (UTC)
 * ...which is fine and dandy for Wikiversity, but here we are playing "Encyclopedia", dude - not Useful Document Repository. -- Elmidae (talk · contribs) 16:26, 25 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Also, I wonder what kind of field worker you envision who needs a full alphabetical list of all mammal species w/o any further information. -- Elmidae (talk · contribs) 16:28, 25 September 2018 (UTC)


 * I have begun to work on this article, and I would like to note that there are articles with lists that are much longer than this. Leo1pard (talk) 16:51, 25 September 2018 (UTC)

Co-work.
Thank you.
 * An appreciation: the blue "Contents" box reflects in best way what a list is. in that way you are editing it would reflect the generas not the species.
 * List are numerical or alphabetical, other form of presentation is a table (to consider). Cloud forest (talk) 18:58, 25 September 2018 (UTC)
 * As someone who wrote List of parrots, I can tell you, from the amount of things you need in your list, do not attempt a table. At this size, a bulleted-list format is the way you need to go if you wanna make it readable to the extent possible  User:Dunkleosteus77 &#124;push to talk 17:49, 28 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Anchors are very appropriate Cloud forest (talk) 18:08, 28 September 2018 (UTC)
 * List of mammal species/navigation is a rehash of List of mammal genera and is not the answer to the navigation problem  User:Dunkleosteus77 &#124;push to talk 19:18, 28 September 2018 (UTC)
 * You can type Control F in your computer to find Cloud forest (talk) 21:45, 28 September 2018 (UTC)
 * How is that different from List of mammal genera? And how exactly does that separate article help with navigation?  User:Dunkleosteus77 &#124;push to talk 22:24, 28 September 2018 (UTC)
 * It is a printable version and it is not hierarchicalCloud forest (talk) 22:33, 28 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Cramming them all together makes it very unreadable especially if you're planning on printing it out  User:Dunkleosteus77 &#124;push to talk 22:37, 28 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Not to mention that it’s trying to use Wikipedia to violate WP:NOTDIR policy. Kingofaces43 (talk) 13:34, 29 September 2018 (UTC)

Wikipedia is requesting a picture, Dromiciops gliroides "Monito del monte" is representative. One species makes a complete order Cloud forest (talk) 18:31, 28 September 2018 (UTC)

 * I don’t think you understand the purpose of these talk pages. Dab solver is indeed a tool and, as said on the article, one this article very much needs. This is not new information  User:Dunkleosteus77 &#124;push to talk 21:36, 29 September 2018 (UTC)

 * Why what?  User:Dunkleosteus77 &#124;push to talk 02:03, 4 October 2018 (UTC)
 * For "why" turn to Articles for deletion/List of mammal species. Please do not tell me you have managed to remain oblivious of that discussion all through the last week. -- Elmidae (talk · contribs) 06:08, 4 October 2018 (UTC)
