Get involved with WikiProject Turtles discussion.

Here are some tasks awaiting attention:

Copyedit : Green sea turtle!
Expand : Emydidae, Tortoise, Spotted turtle, Glyptemys
Photo : Find a photo of turtle articles needing a photo
Stubs : Expand a stub article.
Update : Emydidae, Tortoise
Other : * Out of date turtle articles abound, mainly taxonomy issues, get a list here and scroll down for articles. Taxonomy information is available in WikiProject Turtles resources.
- {{Extinct turtles}} and fossil forms of both living and extinct turtles requires attention:many extinct articles require either expansion or creation and sources seems hard to come by. A list of fossil forms is being compiled so progress can be charted.
- Patrol: recent changes to turtle articles and check for improvements or errors.

"In the 10th edition ..." edit

Does it make sense, to quote from the 10th edition of Systema Naturae (1758) by using an Englsh version of 1800, "Translated from GMELIN'S last Edition of the Celebrated SYSTEMA NATURAE, ... AMENDED AND ENLARGED BY THE IMPROVEMENTS AND DISCOVERIES OF LATER NATURALISTS AND SOCIETIES, ... By William Turton? And to not even quote Turton correctly?

Original Newton from the 10th and 12th edition: "AMPHIBIA, pleraque horrent Corpore frigido, Colore lurido, Sceleto cartilagineo,Vita tenaci, Cute foeda, Facie torva, Obtutu meditabundo, Odore tetro, Sono rauco, Loco squalido, Veneno horrendo; non itaque in horum numerum sese jactavit eorum Auctor." Systema naturae per regna tria naturae. Editio decima, reformata. Stockholm 1758. p. 194 archive.org. Editio duodecima, reformata. Stockholm 1766. p. 347 books.google.

And where in Turton's edition are the Linnaean Characteristics quoted? On page 4 there are neither heart nor lungs and "support" is "supporters". The original Linné however has cor and pulmones: 12th edition page 19 books.google. --Vsop.de (talk) 15:02, 16 June 2012 (UTC)Reply

Shouldn't "Nantes" from the Amphibia section be moved to Pisces? edit

Linnaeus later moved the creatures previously under "Nantes" into Pisces as "Chondropterygii". Shouldn't we reflect that in the article? Titanopteran (talk) 00:58, 8 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
