New Pinguicula species

[1], but I don't have access to the article and don't know which section, if any, it was published under. Any ideas? --Rkitko ^(talk) 20:51, 9 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Copyright free photos

Hi, all! I was browsing the ICPS forum today and found an interesting note at the bottom of one person's post that may be helpful to the project. See this. At the bottom, the user notes, "All my pictures are without copyright." And he posts quite a few photos that may be useful. Lots of species we don't have. Cheers, Rkitko ^(talk) 02:08, 31 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Changes to the WP:1.0 assessment scheme

As you may have heard, we at the Wikipedia 1.0 Editorial Team recently made some changes to the assessment scale, including the addition of a new level. The new description is available at WP:ASSESS.

The new C-Class represents articles that are beyond the basic Start-Class, but which need additional references or cleanup to meet the standards for B-Class.
The criteria for B-Class have been tightened up with the addition of a rubric, and are now more in line with the stricter standards already used at some projects.
A-Class article reviews will now need more than one person, as described here.

Each WikiProject should already have a new C-Class category at Category:C-Class_articles. If your project elects not to use the new level, you can simply delete your WikiProject's C-Class category and clarify any amendments on your project's assessment/discussion pages. The bot is already finding and listing C-Class articles.

Please leave a message with us if you have any queries regarding the introduction of the revised scheme. This scheme should allow the team to start producing offline selections for your project and the wider community within the next year. Thanks for using the Wikipedia 1.0 scheme!

Portal

Looks like user:ZooFari created Portal:Carnivorous plants. It doesn't look too bad, but could do with some work. Mgiganteus1 (talk) 10:59, 28 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia 0.7 articles have been selected for Carnivorous plant

Wikipedia 0.7 is a collection of English Wikipedia articles due to be released on DVD, and available for free download, later this year. The Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team has made an automated selection of articles for Version 0.7.

We would like to ask you to review the articles selected from this project. These were chosen from the articles with this project's talk page tag, based on the rated importance and quality. If there are any specific articles that should be removed, please let us know at Wikipedia talk:Version 0.7. You can also nominate additional articles for release, following the procedure at Wikipedia:Release Version Nominations.

A list of selected articles with cleanup tags, sorted by project, is available. The list is automatically updated each hour when it is loaded. Please try to fix any urgent problems in the selected articles. A team of copyeditors has agreed to help with copyediting requests, although you should try to fix simple issues on your own if possible.

We would also appreciate your help in identifying the version of each article that you think we should use, to help avoid vandalism or POV issues. These versions can be recorded at this project's subpage of User:SelectionBot/0.7. We are planning to release the selection for the holiday season, so we ask you to select the revisions before October 20. At that time, we will use an automatic process to identify which version of each article to release, if no version has been manually selected. Thanks!

Utricularia

With the completion of the Utricularia subramanyamii stub, the Utricularia genus is completely filled in. On to another genus! And then maybe filling in stubby Utric articles. --Rkitko ^(talk) 03:13, 16 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Woohoo.. great work! :) I've noticed that Utricularia vulgaris (the best known species, right?) is one of these stubby articles and was created before your exhaustive article creation run. Any chance you could flesh it out a bit? :) mgiganteus1 (talk) 12:17, 18 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, yes. It's in need of some work. I think I have some references floating around here somewhere on it. I was also going to try and work a bit more on Sarracenia. Another editor wants to put it up for FAC, but I think it's far from it. I'll see what I can do. --Rkitko ^(talk) 13:08, 18 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Utricularia inflexa

I am told by someone on Flickr that Utricularia_inflexa has the wrong picture: "U. inflexa is yellow (we have a poorish picture)" (I can't seem to find their picture online). Richard001 (talk) 01:10, 28 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

From everything I've seen and read, it looks right to me. In Taylor's monograph, he states: "Corolla white or pale mauve or more rarely yellow, with purple nerves..." so it seems there's some variability within the taxon. --Rkitko ^(talk) 02:03, 28 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
