[edit] Wikipedia articles on Spiders

i like dounuts

it's easiest to start with one of the following pages:

• Spiders - should be the main entry page for most people
• Araneae families - main entry page of taxonomic tree.

[edit] Adopt an article

Similar to the Collaboration of the week, but on a smaller scale, you might want to "adopt" an article. This would involve doing the research, writing, and picture-taking (if possible) for either a non-existent article or a stub. Of course, everyone else can still edit an adopted article, and you can work on other things too, but the idea is to find a focus for a while, to try and build up the number of quality articles the Project has produced.

• Example articles: Blind spiders, Arachnology

[edit] Requested Articles

[edit] Spider article subpages

There should be several subpages, eg.:

• Spider anatomy
  • Spider vision
• Spider evolution
• Spider taxonomy
• Spider bites
• Spiders in culture
• Spiders as food (should be merged with Fried spider)

[edit] Blind spiders

A list of themes where there's mostly information on the internet, but nobody started an article yet:

• • Cicurina [1]
  • Neoleptoneta microps [2]
  • Adelocosa anops PDF [3] [4] [5]
  • Lygromma anops PDF PDF
  • Euagrus anops PDF
  • Micythus anopsis (no links found)
  • Spermophorides anophthalma (no links found)

[edit] Spider anatomy

List of some items that are not explained yet. These should either be treated in an article of their own, or get a section in Spider anatomy, or, if it has a different meaning in other parts of zoology (for example entomology), get a special section there.

• Apophysis
• Bulbus
• Calamistrum
• Carapax
• Colulus
• Embolus
• Gnathosoma
• Hysterosoma
• Opisthosoma
• Scutum
• Spermatophore
• Spinneret (expand)
• Subchela

[edit] Did you know?

• An entry from Caponiidae appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know? column on 29 July 2006.

[edit] Article improvement drive

[edit] Collaboration of the week

[edit] Peer review

[edit] Featured articles

[edit] Featured article candidates

• The article Spider was proposed for Featured article. It should probably split into sub-pages and checked for accuracy first.

[edit] Featured pictures
