Latsabidze
Dear Invertzoo, I am trying to put a new article in wiki about one artist. Would you please give me suggestions? Thanks in advance. Here's the article:LatsabidzeRegards!Sausa11 (talk) 20:25, 30 November 2010 (UTC)
Dear Invertzoo,Thank you for some edits you made in article about Latsabidze. I would however encourage you to continue helping me in improving the same article not on the music43lover's workplace but on here: Latsabidze This article was nominated for a deletion by Ohconfucius, however few hours later the banner was taken off, because article got more encyclopedic and much leaner. I would very much appreciate your support and further edits in order to keep this article in live. If you would leave some notes on the article's talk pagehere - maybe with some positive feedback I would be thankful! Much regards! Sausa11 (talk) 22:06, 2 December 2010 (UTC)
Thanks for your edits again! If you could put some comments on thetalk page of the article that would be great too. I mean you don't have to but in case anyone opposes the article again by saying that its' a promotional etc... I don't see anything promotional there any more. Thanks!!

New article
Hi Susan.Here it is. Please let me know, if you will be able to copy-edit it. Best wishes.--Mbz1 (talk) 23:18, 3 December 2010 (UTC)
- Oh yes! This one is very interesting to me! I will do as much clean up as I can this weekend, even though I will be busy with RL some of the days. Thanks,Invertzoo (talk) 23:45, 3 December 2010 (UTC)
- Thank you for working on the article. I believe it is good enough to be moved to the main space because as always I would not like the history of your contributions to be lost in my user space after the article is moved. So, if you do not mind, I am going to move it in two hours. Is this OK? Cheers.--Mbz1 (talk) 02:09, 4 December 2010 (UTC)

Merry Christmas & thanks from Peter
Dear Zoo,
Merry Christmas, and I hope you have a great 2011.
Today I photographed an alive Sphaerospira fraseri, an Australian snail. However, it was at the Australian Museum, in a cage, and the photos were terrible. (A smeared unclear glassy cage).
I'm just about to write my 500th Wikipedia article. After that, I want a break. And will come back to it later with new ideas (I hope).
On Friday, I'm meeting up with Australia's top eucalyptus scientist, we are going to measure the mighty Woodford Tree. It's between 65 and 90 metres tall. My guess, it's around 78 metres tall. He found about this tree from my writings on the internet. I'm still fit and ready to explore that wilderness gully.
Today I was with one of my (many) ex girfriends, I love them all. And it's so great to be at the Australian Museum, a favourite place from my childhood.
A few days ago there was an impressive black Mygalomorph spider in the garage, I know it well. But none of the scientists can yet identify it. I'm sure it is known to science. When they tell me the scientific name, I'll do a stub on it. What a shame I'm not a biologist working at the Australian Museum. But, I'm very fortunate, all the same.
Thanks for your support. Kind wishes
- Peter Woodard

RE: Thanks and an invitation
And thank you for the pleasant welcome and invitation to your group, however I must decline your offer as I do not live in Hawaii, (oh how I wish I did!) and unfortunately I have no more pictures of living gastropods other then those covered already. However I may be able to obtain some photos of extinct gastropods if I look around through my archives. I have some which are named down to the species level and quite possibly some uncommon ones. Again, thank you for the invitation and I'll see if I can help out somehow! King (talk) 19:39, 17 December 2010 (UTC)
