Fauna, or Flora of the World
I claim no insight to the "answers to the problems". I worked on all the fauna flora avifauna/birds trees as of 20 days ago, turning into the Caribbean from Central America, then reversing and doing S. Amer. And I went back to the Caribbean, kind of going by island, now in the Greater Antilles looking at the links to the Jamaica page(there are 63, 50 item pages linked, so it takes some hours and looking at pages, putting things into categories). If I had been asked, I would have said I wouldn't have dared to try to do the Caribbean. But you will see some of the pages ended up as "by islands" to clear out the "Main" page, and then there can still be some "ambiquities". So, it has been a work in progress,. ....... I did start with the states of Western US, and then started the subcaategories, like: Category:Avifauna of Southwestern United States, or ...Category:Trees of Northwestern United States. Then i did all the Canadian Provinces, (and then put them in "by province", and I have been doing that for Mexico "by state". So, i am just trying to keep it all organized, and logical.   I have no final answers. I do know one thing that happened in the US stuff, so I left it, for a couple of reasons.  And I did start: Category:Trees of the Amazon.  there is: plenty of work to continue doing.  Michael, in the Sonoran Desert.  --Mmcannis 04:08, 27 November 2006 (UTC)


 * You are overlooking a major item (and as i noted, Oceania, is Not a continent). If you look at Category:Fauna of South America by region, you will find the Guianas, the only "Land" subsection, at the moment for S. America. I originally had them s.Amer by country, then realized Tierra del Fuego, and then Falkland Islands, are the only two other logical items.  So i put all the countries then under "by region".  Chile and Tierra d Fue are listed together. Other items are listed together(in the Caribbean especially).   The overlooked point is,  "by Continent" doesn't mean everything just slides into "by Continent" because it is a continent.  Eurasia, and Oceania(with a subset for East Indies?), then Caribbean, C. Amer.   The only other area I think one could come up with is maybe the Mediterranean, to include Azores, and Canary Island.  Michael in Arizona-(I have to go to work tomorrow, so it to bed with myself).(and thanks for listening at least)(after  re-reading, so maybe "Mediterranean", and "east indies"/w/its countries therefore)--Mmcannis 04:31, 27 November 2006 (UTC)

I wonder if there's an equivalent standard for fauna. Hesperian 04:38, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
 * I'm hoping so. It may be of worth to invite Mmcannis to the discussion at Australian biota if we want to dramatically change how the Flora by continent will be done. (Sorry about replying here, but both of you are here). --liquidGhoul 04:43, 27 November 2006 (UTC)

Admin revert
Regarding this revert, I'm not so sure that was vandalism. As far as I recall, the rule of thumb is to only use admin revert in cases of obvious vandalism, which this was not. Whether the addition was worth keeping or not is another story and I am not qualified to comment as to that, I just wanted to remind you to be careful with those admin tools.

Hey Evan, was thinking of you when I saw this in a frog pond in Wanneroo (outer nthn suburb of Perth.) can you ID it and we can make a page? cheers Cas Liber 00:04, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

Request
Dear LiquidGhoul,

I noticed that you have a lot of experience with getting articles to FA status. I have been working on the Ohio Wesleyan University page article and am trying to get it to FA status. I was wondering if you could provide some advice on how the article can be improved? Also, any contributions to it will be even more appreciated! Thank you so much for your time! I greatly appreciate it! WikiprojectOWU 01:48, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

Reward Board - $10 for each plant or animal FA................................
Hey Evan, have you seen this reward board? []

 * I am thinking that it may be in the 'too hard' basket for a fortnight and I must say my heart isn't really in it. I was keeping an eye on it to see how many others are editing it too. Cas Liber 06:40, 29 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Actually a lot of people are starting to hoe into it. Maybe possible.... I just gave someone some advice on Snow leopard, which looks further along the way....Cas Liber 06:43, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

ITN
Hello, LiquidGhoul.

I won't say this on Talk:MainPage (too public), but I have trouble justifying the strict enforcement of ITN guidelines at the same time when so many people are actively (the past few days) asking at Talk:ITN that the guidelines be changed. Ignoring guidelines is bad. Enforcing guidelines widely considered inadequate is also bad. I ain't arguing to keep the line. I simply decided that it's best to leave things as is. I hope you understand.

I didn't add the line about Ford onto ITN. And I don't have strong enough a reason to take it off. It should be there, but it's not a strong case. I'd rather displace it sooner with better ITN materials, e.g. the war in Somalia. --PFHLai 18:34, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

Reply: Dead frog
Earlier I had questions about my red eyed treefrog's death and you asked for more information. The frog was miscolored and he looked very much alive when he was actually dead. His eyes were closed and he was hanging upside down on a leaf. I spray the terrarium several times a day and came to do this and after I sprayed he fell from the the leaf to the ground. He had already been dead while on the leaf and was very stiff. I have no photos, as I try not to make a habit of photographing dead pets. His appetite seemed normal. In November we took him to the vet because of some unusual spots on his back. The vet said this was from humidity being too low, and we kept humidity extra high and the spots went away. As for the Green Treefrog, she is very active at night and seems to be in perfect health. I already cleaned the terrarium and she is living there. Thank you for your time and get back to me whenever you get the chance. BrandiniTheGreat 03:12, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

Are you sure my frog had ranavirus? I did some reseach and most websites say that ranavirus, known as "red-leg" here in America, also show symptoms of swelling, bloating, and redness on the body in some species. And when I said he was discolored, I meant dark green not red. And he did not seem lethargic in any way. My frog, Jerry, showed none of these symptoms. And Janet, the green tree frog, seems healthier than ever. And if it was red-leg, if Jerry had it, although it takes a while to take hold, should have killed him a long time ago. He was fairly young. Could it be possible that it was just his time to go? Thanks again, BrandiniTheGreat 18:02, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

Frogs
Sadly I only have pictures of motorbike frogs - I know we do have banjo frogs somewhere because I can hear them, but have never seen one (or if I have, haven't been able to distinguish it). Most of my pictures are pretty average though - all ours are babies. I've got a few unusual ones though like 9 newly-metamorphised ones scrambling for a place in the sun on a single reed, and of course the one I linked on Fred's page.

Everyone is welcome to join, or just visit, WikiProject Western Australia. Please look over my edits and I will try to track down photos. Pls leave requests for image experts at WP:WA. Non expert, just like frogs. Fred 12:00, 6 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Precisely. It is a new project with many fine wikipedians active, some in image. Not me. I will have a go at adding to the commons when I can speak to non wiki reseachers.
 * Regarding your first point; I thought, probably mistakenly, that I read of a sp. that existed in Indonesia, NW Australia and QLD. I suppose it was a family if not species. Fred 12:49, 6 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Cheers for info. I will return to this topic later. Sorry I don't have page name of sp. or more probably family. Be sure to let you know indo connection. I can send you a copy of my page history if you are able to search the pages.  I may remember tomorrow and try this. Regards Fred 13:08, 6 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Here is ref: Northern Dwarf Tree Frog
 * (Litoria bicolor) is a small species of tree frog native to northern Australia, from the Kimberly region of Western Australia to Bowen, Queensland and Aru Islands of Indonesia. The population occurring in Indonesia may not be Litoria bicolor and research on call structure or genetics is needed to confirm its taxonomic status.

Common names
Hi, I will get around to photographing them, hunting for a good deal on a camera at the moment. Regarding naming; the scientific name is the most common name. It is certainly less ambiguous than some other biota names I've come across. Do you see a problem? Regards, ☻ Fred|☝ discussion |✍ contributions  11:34, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
 * I'm not convinced, do you mean it is the most frequently used or ordinary name or a inferior or vulgar one? You are the second person to recommend that compact camera series, I'm sold. I need one to carry all the time, but I prefer SLR otherwise.  They (DSLRs) are getting cheaper and better. Regards, ☻ Fred|☝ discussion |✍  contributions  16:47, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
 * I hope you didn't mind me paraphrasing the dictionary, I thought it would illustrate my point on definition. I don't know if you followed the discussion with Stemonitis, he suggested that I seek WikiProject Amphibians and Reptiles#Names and titles which redirected to WP:TOL. The two most relevant lines, IMHO, are identification of formal common names and reiteration of the perennial rule. Thanks for discussing this with me, feel free to move that article and any future ones. I will let you know which compact I choose, your suggestion seems likely.

Featured List of the Day Experiment
There have been a series of proposals to initiate a Featured List of the Day on the main page. Numerous proposals have been put forth. After the third one failed, I audited all WP:FL's in order to begin an experiment in my own user space that will hopefully get it going. Today, it commences at WP:LOTD. Afterwards I created my experimental page, a new proposal was set forth to do a featured list that is strikingly similar to my own which is to do a user page experimental featured list, but no format has been confirmed and mechanism set in place. I continue to be willing to do the experiment myself and with this posting it commences. Please submit any list that you would like to have considered for list of the day in the month of January 2008 by the end of this month to WP:LOTD and its subpages. You may submit multiple lists for consideration.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:LOTD) 17:45, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

Toad taxonomy
Could you add references for the taxonomic change and also mention the former names? It looks wierd when the IUCN link doesn't max the taxonomy. Ex: Canadian Toad -Ravedave (talk) 21:11, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

Bufo
I appreciate the work you're doing on the article Bufo. But it would be a good idea to describe the changes Frost et al. (2006) have brought to this genus. And give a link in the section "references" to the publication of their research. Otherwise, others wil keep adding in good faith outdated names to this genus.

 * Nah no rush - hey out of curiosity was trawling through them and tagging - i think there are few mistakes (on my tagging that is)- hey its all a learning process SatuSuro 12:44, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

Bufo names
The Frost et al. paper is highly controversial and poorly supported, and there are several papers in press rejecting that taxonomy and retaining a much broader genus Bufo. Changing the names at this time is a big problem, and will simply result in greater confusion in the literature. The Pauly et al. study provides strong support for the monophyly of a much more traditional Bufo. It turns out that some of the sequences used by Frost et al. were not even from anurans, but rather represent parasites of frogs. In addition, the alignment of the genes was highly problematic.

Speedy deletion of Image:Litoria gracilenta.jpg
A tag has been placed on Image:Litoria gracilenta.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section I9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted images or text borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on  explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Picture
Hi!

I work for Digital Dimensions, a production company in Townsville, Queensland, Australia. We are currently working on a children's programme about the Great Barrier Reef creatures, and we have a graphic-heavy recap section which includes pictures of the animals we talk about. We have tried to source as many as we can with our own HDV footage, but we do need some very clear high res shots of some of the animals. I saw the Soldier crab picture on Wiki and have read the agreements, but we cannot however place the whole project under GFDL license as it should be.

So i was wondering if you would be interested to sell your picture to us for use in the series (1 episode only), and what would be your price. If the latter was reasonable, and that you had any more marine shots (though I understand you are frog oriented) we would be keen to maybe buy more from you.

Thank you for your help, and congrats for all the stars you won!!

Hope to hear from you soon

commons:Commons:Valued image candidates/New England Tree Frog - Litoria subglandulosa.jpg
Hi LiquidGhoul,

One of you fine frog images has been nominated as a Valued image candidate on Commons. Unfortunately it does not fulfill the geocoding requirement for species. Do you recall the location of the photo? If so, could you geocode it? If you do not recall the exact location I would like to ask you to add at some regional information in the description. --Slaunger (talk) 22:08, 26 March 2009 (UTC)
 * I forgot to inform you that, since the species is threatened, it is not required to give exact geolocation data, regional information is good enough. --Slaunger (talk) 22:11, 26 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Thank you. I will renominate it now that the issues which caused a decline has been addressed. --Slaunger (talk) 11:57, 31 March 2009 (UTC)

Rosella photograph
Thank you for contributing this parrot photograph some time ago which is now on commons at File:Crimson Rosella2.jpg. I would like to add to the image description where it was photographed. It has a lighter back than some other rosellas, and I am wondering which subspecies it it. Snowman (talk) 20:57, 10 June 2009 (UTC)
 * From the locality that you kindly provided, it could only be a Platycercus elegans elegans, I think. Is is a parrot that you have seen a lot in the locality. It is a female or a juvenile? Snowman (talk) 09:09, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

Help needed
Hello LiquidGhoud. Over the past few weeks, SunCreator and I have been trying to hash out all the Emydidae turtle articles. This template has been created and included on all of the species' articles:

We are having a devil of a time figuring out the most currrent/most accurate taxonomic classification of these turtles. See here, here, and here for full conversations. It would be wonderful if you could offer any advice as we continue to sort through this mess. Thank you, NYMFan69-86 (talk) 03:50, 7 December 2010 (UTC)

Suspension of admin privileges due to inactivity
Following a community discussion in June 2011, consensus was reached to provisionally suspend the administrative privileges of users who have been inactive for one year, meaning administrators who have made neither any edits nor any logged actions in over one year. As a result of this discussion, your administrative privileges have been removed pending your return. If you wish to have these privileges reinstated, please post to the Bureaucrats' noticeboard and the userright will be restored per the re-sysopping process (i.e., as long as the attending bureaucrats are reasonably satisfied that your account has not been compromised and that your inactivity did not have the effect of evading scrutiny of any actions which might have led to sanctions). This removal of access is procedural only, and not intended to reflect negatively upon you in any way. We wish you the best in future endeavors, and thank you for your past administrative efforts.

Notice of change
Hello. You are receiving this message because of a [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk:Administrators&oldid=526254016#Restoration_of_the_tools_.28proposal.29 recent change] to the administrator policy that alters what you were told at the time of your desysopping. The effect of the change is that if you are inactive for a continuous three year period, you will be unable to request return of the administrative user right. This includes inactive time prior to your desysopping if you were desysopped for inactivity and inactive time prior to the change in policy. Inactivity is defined as the absence of edits or logged actions. Until such time as you have been inactive for three years, you may request return of the tools at the bureaucrats' noticeboard. After you have been inactive for three years, you may seek return of the tools only through WP:RFA. Thank you.  MBisanz  talk 00:20, 4 December 2012 (UTC)
