[edit] cleanup

i will try to rewrite this page in the near future. looks like the page creator cluttered the page with galleries from commons, and after a few days lost interest. the focus should be in giving an insight into spider features that are of taxonomic interest. --Sarefo 01:46, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

In trying to eliminate some duplications in the spider article I moved a list here. In the absence of other information, pictures can be helpful. I still think it would be useful to keep a representative picture or perhaps a small selection for each genus.

The information on features of taxonomic interest would be welcome. P0M 03:34, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

There are almost 4,000 genera. I don't think providing images for most of them on one page (or a random selection thereof) would be very useful. maybe we can come up with something useful for this page in the near future; atm i'm working on WPSpiders to get the scaffolding up :) --Sarefo 00:22, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Table (moved from Spider families)

if you want to edit the table, it's best to use a local editor that is able to display monospace fonts (eg. vi). the table is aligned for easier manipulation. --Sarefo 04:51, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Cleanup & merge done

Cleanup done first, tag removed. Contents of Spider families moved into and merged with this article. Regards, AshLin 11:03, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

Aranae families and Spider families now redirect to this article. AshLin 13:11, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
