Most of the crater pages are also linked to a biography page about the person for whom it was named. We've got most of those biographical pages created, but there are still a few hold-outs that are proving difficult to find good information in English. Among these are several craters named after Dutchmen: 4939:

Re "two periods of rapid diversification: well before and well after the extinction of the dinosaurs", I thought I'd mentioned that under "Molecular phylogenetic timescale" and given a reference. Did I miss something? I deliberately placed all the theories based on molecular phylogenetics at the end:

The problem with including bats in the list of mammals that apparently diversified during the Paleocene is that the earliest bat fossils are late early Eocene in age. So it may be that they diversified during the Paleocene. In fact, it seems that they should have. But, because that section in the

Well, the Ligurian Sea is part of the Mediterranean Sea. However, it can also be considered a seperate sea. It depends on the person you ask. Most people will say: yes, the Ligurian Sea is part of the Mediterranean, just as (for example) the Tyrrhenian Sea and the Ionian Sea are. However, the major

In an attempt to edit the cladogram, reflecting the recent changes, I managed to screw things up completely.

I have another question. Athough my English is at a fairly good level, it is far from perfect (my native language being Dutch). I have a wide range of interests, and I like to participate where I can for Knowledge (XXG). However, in some cases my edits are containing quite some spelling and grammar

Thank you for contributions to Biesbosch. There are some things I don't really understand, and I'd like you to explain: What are saltisch sea-arms? I guess it is a translation from Dutch, but it makes little sense in English. Can you refer to a source for the information, or explain what you meant?

You're suggestion sounds reasonable, and I'll be happy to check over however you wind up incorporating it, if you were thinking you'd want to do that. If I get some more time, I'll also be more than happy to more critically read the rest of that section; it just happens I'm most familiar with the

Hi, I'm the guy that tweaked some things in the M31 article. I've noticed that in almost all galaxy articles the words "diameter" and "radius" are used as if they have the same meaning. This is obviously not the case, so the value for "radius" is almost always given as the diameter! (e.g. a galaxy

Thanks DaMatriX. Now that I think about it, the globular clusters page probably needs a section on intermediate forms where the line is blurred between the different cluster types. I also need to add some comments about globular clusters generally having relatively low amounts of dark matter. —

Am I not clear? I guess an example will clarify. If the subject of the article is an order, then it is appropriate to put superorder and subclass in the taxobox. If the article is about a family, then it is not appropriate to put the superorder or subclass, but suborder and superfamily are
