User talk:Irlandes

Can't speak for anyone else, but I think new people are what keeps the entire WP project alive. Please remember to tell us a little about yourself on your user page, & you will find other people intereted in paleontology here, as well as a number of other biologists like myself.

All you need do to keep your article about Tepexi de Rodriguez from deletion is to make sure it prominently says that it is significant because of the fossils & make sure there are at least two good published references cited to the fact that it is notable. Then just link it to the appropriate palenontology pages, add links from appropriate paleontology pages to it, for example from famous species unearthed there. People here tend to judge by first impressions.

And I hope you will stay and do some more. There are many thousnds of extinct species to be added. (familiarize yourself first with the way the taxobox is used for similar beasts).

I welcome you to WP, and if you ever need help, just ask on my talk page. DGG 23:01, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
