Proposed caption
A snail is a mollusc of the class gastopoda. Snails are extraordinarily diverse but all have coiled shells as adults to protect them and a strong foot coated in mucous for locomotion. All land snails are hermaphrodites and have two sets of tentacles which carry the eyes and olfactory organs.

  • Comment Good diagram, but I think it would be perfect if the key was in the image itself rather than just having numbers label the parts Lipton sale (talk) 05:25, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
    • Comment re comment: The image couldn't be used on other language wikis, if the key is in the image... --Janke | Talk 07:25, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
      • This is the English wikipedia, so captions should be in English. The numbered version remains on commons for use in other languages. Since this is an SVG, it is a piece of cake to rename, and I will make a new version right now. This image needs a caption, and right now it has no caption at all.

  • Suuport Here's a caption. Just to note, this diagram applies to common land snails and not as much to marine species. Jeff Dahl (Talkcontribs) 16:42, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Conditional support - If we get a decent caption, and no factual errors are noted. Looks great, though! --Sean 14:41, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Support edit 1. I wish this diagram like this was around when I was studying biology. Would be nice if it mentioned what species/genera it was based on.. Looks like Helix aspersa. —Pengo 02:30, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Support edit 1 - Looks good. 8thstar 13:54, 21 November 2007 (
  • Conditional Support, otherwise STRONG Oppose. Needs a note as to the source species, if that goes in, thumbs-up. Other than that, I must strongly protest, as it would give people the idea that this chart was applicable to all snail species. --Dante Alighieri | Talk 20:16, 25 November 2007 (UTC)
