(I guess we better move bird collab talk here...)

Righto, Common Raven is then our first collaboration, right? cheers, Casliber | talk | contribs 18:32, 23 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

PS: We gotta figure out whether folks want a new collab every month or fortnight....cheers, Casliber | talk | contribs 18:34, 23 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I think one a month is sufficient at first... Sabine's Sunbird talk 20:04, 23 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds good to me :) Now what? Australian Raven 20:54, 23 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Get cracking! Template's up, article's chosen, tedious stuff is done. Go for it!Sabine's Sunbird talk 23:11, 23 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A clean up is required at the section Ravens in popular culture. I am bad at cleaning up information which I don't know. Cheers... Luffy487 03:42, 24 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Current bird FAs[edit]

Statistically we have 9:

4/9 pertain to seabirds 2/9 are flightless 1/9 is a passerine

Gotta run (dinner's ready) - anyone else think of some? cheers, Casliber | talk | contribs 07:50, 25 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The seabird bias is almost all my fault, I love dem seabirds! Sabine's Sunbird talk 08:17, 25 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Cleaning up Ravens in Popular Culture[edit]

How much of that info should we leave there? I think some of it is actually widely known, but half of it doesn't matter. Comments? Australian Raven 12:45, 25 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Tricky - most important ones (I guess) would be nth american trickster, norse hugin & munin, shakespeare ref of use of bird, EA Poe and tower of london. Then all the rest on a ravens in pop cult page.

PS: Lets move this to raven talk page :) cheers, Casliber | talk | contribs 12:48, 25 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

New Collaboration?[edit]

Shall we make it Bird? Australian Raven 14:33, 26 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

New Collaboration 5/27?[edit]

Is it goint to be Bird migration? Corvus coronoides Contributions_{MGo Blue} 20:27, 26 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Congratulations to all involved in getting this article to FA status.Maias 05:55, 27 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, Congratulations! Corvus coronoides Contributions_{MGo Blue} 19:19, 27 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Standing list of chunky articles[edit]

I've left a list of substantial articles for folk to whet their teeth on to get to GA or FA. Feel free to add any other largish articles to it or get stuck into them..cheers, Cas Liber | talk | contribs 01:00, 3 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Peregrine Falcon[edit]

Folks, where are you? Is it OK what I did? Because I need some input whether it's alright if I use the "Barbary problem" piece for Barbary Falcon. And if it's altogether OK, I shall integrate the stuff in Peale's Falcon I chucked from the Perry mainpage... and at least content-wise, I think we could just as well home for FA?

Biology collaboration[edit]

I've suggested we create a centralized Wikipedia:Biology collaboration of the month for all biology subjects. If interested, please show your support. Richard001 23:38, 12 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
