Welcome to Wikispecies, Nilesh Heda! We like having new people contributing to Wikispecies. Here are a few things that may be interesting: Have a look at Done and to do. Help:Contents provides a good introduction to editing Wikispecies. Templates are there to help you following syntax and formatting rules. Please ask further questions in the Village Pump. Please don't upload files to Wikispecies unless there's a special reason to do so; use the Wikimedia Commons instead. We hope you'll enjoy the time you spend on Wikispecies! You can sign your messages with ~~~~.

Thank you for your contributions. We do not include author and title in the page title. You can use the move option to change the name of your pages. We also do not include descriptions of species, since then we would need to create the description in all languages. Instead, please create articles on the appropriate wikipedia and link to there. Don't hesitate to ask questions. --Open2universe 13:33, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

Notopterus notopterus

Your content on the Notopterus notopterus page was moved to Talk:Notopterus notopterus and your content on the Notopterus notopterus (Pallas) page was moved to Notopterus notopterus to be consistent with all the other taxon pages on Wikispecies. Let me know if this is a problem or if you have any questions. --Georgeryp 20:45, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

Prose goes on wikipedia

Hi there, sorry but we do not maintain full descriptions here at wikispecies. I have deleted the following but left the content here if you want to create articles on wikipedia. --Open2universe 13:13, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
