Someone knowledgeable should double-check the facts in here. Before I edited it, the style was so confusing that some of the facts were obscured.Dave 05:58, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for the note. I haven't looked at this page for quite some time. A certain amount of misinformation has crept in, so I'll try to straighten it out a bit. P0M 06:22, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC)

I hope none of it is my fault. Feel free to look at older versions, but the style got so bad that I doubt you want to revert. Dave 06:29, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Looks great.Dave 13:00, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC)

The page for black widow, covering the three american varieties of widow spider, currently claims that the female eating the male after mating is rare. This page says female widow spiders frequently eat the males. This appears to be a contradiction. DanFarnsy (talk) 06:00, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

Why is the Widow spider linked only to one species on Commons? P0M 06:56, 6 January 2007 (UTC)
