Hello

I've just signed up to WikiProject Sharks and was wondering if you would know where I could find good coverage to expand two shark stubs that I've just created.

Orectolobus floridus Orectolobus reticulatus

Also, I am fairly new to Wikipedia, so if there is anything I'm doing wrong, can you please let me know? Thanks. --Domestic CAT 22:32, 4 January 2010 (UTC)

Thank you for your reply. I'll take your comments into account and look into your suggestions later. Thanks.--Domestic CAT 03:40, 5 January 2010 (UTC)

Eleven swellsharks DYK nom

would be a good lead. If you can find a free picture of reasonable quality for any of those eleven, please add. Materialscientist (talk) 07:09, 22 February 2010 (UTC)

Alas, I highly doubt that any images of these newly described species are freely available online, as they are all obscure/known from few specimens. The only hope would perhaps be contacting some of the describing authors. -- Yzx (talk) 17:57, 22 February 2010 (UTC)
Because of shortage of good leads, I added an arbitrary swellshark and placed it into the lead anyway. Please shout if the picture or text doesn't fit at all. Materialscientist (talk) 07:52, 23 February 2010 (UTC)
