Small categories
For spiders, the implication of WikiProject Spiders/Style guide is that the default taxonomic category should be the family, with the genus used only for "large" genera. So for Teranodes, with at most three articles, categorizing at the family level is right. Peter coxhead (talk) 11:41, 19 May 2023 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the heads-up, Peter. Noted. Maias (talk) 11:55, 19 May 2023 (UTC)

Invitation to an in-person meetup in Mohua / Golden Bay
Thinking about your summer break? Think about joining other Wikipedians and Wikimedians in Golden Bay / Mohua! Details are on the meetup page. There's heaps of interesting stuff to work on e.g. the oldest extant waka or New Zealand's oldest ongoing legal case. Or you may spend your time taking photos and then upload them.

Golden Bay is hard to get to and the airline flying into Tākaka uses small planes, so we are holding some seats from and to Wellington and we are offering attendees a $200 travel subsidy to help with costs.

Be in touch with Schwede66 if this event interests you and you'd like to discuss logistics.  Schwede 66  09:14, 13 November 2023 (UTC)
