From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I contribute primarily to articles relating to fossil fishes, and have a particular interest in extinct holocephalans. My current projects consist of expanding stub and start-class articles on fossil fish taxa, as well as creating articles for taxa that do not yet have them (a lot of them, including some pretty significant ones). I've begun journaling projects I would like to complete to give some structure to my editing, although I don't follow these rigidly. These goals will also reflect my uploads on Wikimedia Commons.

Current top-priority personal projects:

  • Destub all articles I have created

Current high-priority personal projects

  • Create and improve articles for important stem-group and early chondrichthyan taxa
  • Improve Osteolepis where possible

Current mid-priority personal projects

Current low-priority personal projects:

  • Contribute to Stethacanthus
  • Expand coverage of extinct jawless fish classes and subclasses
  • Create or minorly expand articles for assorted extinct fish

Pages I've significantly contributed to

[edit]
  • Ornithoprion (complete rewrite and expansion, with copyediting and review by Jens Lallensack. Formerly . I also provided illustrations)
  • Dracopristis (contributed to an expansion to help the article maintain GA status. Original GAN and majority of the article's content by Fossiladder13, and additional work by Jens Lallensack. I also provided the life reconstruction)
  • Parahelicoprion (rewritten, with significant content expansion and additional sourcing. Former )
  • Sarcoprion (removed original research and minorly expanded)
  • Acanthodiformes (moderate expansion. Former )
  • Holocephali (complete rewrite and expansion. Huge thanks to Montanoceratops for providing photographs of rare specimens. Former )
  • Osteolepis (WIP; part of a collaboration to improve important paleontology articles)
  • Helicoprion (article by Hemiauchenia and NGPezz, my contributions so far have largely consisted of additional sourcing and updating text in accordance with the last few years of research. Significant expansion also done by Amirani1746)

Diagrams and life reconstructions

[edit]

I draw once in a while, and make an effort to contribute skeletal diagrams or life reconstructions for my preferred research subjects when possible. Some of my older life recons are very speculative/inaccurate and have no merit being used on the site.
