    [edit] Rhynie chert

    I've just expanded the Rhynie chert from little more than a stub to something more worthy of its exceptional status. I wonder if anyone would be willing to take a look at it and bulk out the bits where I ran out of steam, and/or give it a quick copyedit and de-technicalisation? Comments are very welcome on its talk page!

    [edit] Template for this project

    Needs re-creating - in its current form it is stuffed - to have good project management (and project assessment) - you need a way to file all the category pages - either with class=cat, or class NA - and the importance is meant to drop out as a result (although the mining project has both tagged NA and it works) - if anyone here can do it - you need to grab the pick - and fix it (sorry I am no good at that part) and decide that for cats - class=cat or class=NA - and at that point also the importance drops out in that case - cheers - SatuSuro 01:13, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

    If I've interpreted your post correctly, you mean that category pages should neither receive an assessment for importance or for class. It would be easy to make the template automatically detect whether it is placed on a category page, and to remove itself from the "unassessed (etc) articles" and "unknown class articles" categories - but I thought I'd best check that was what you meant first!

    [edit] Cambrian explosion task force

    Just a quick post to publicise a new task force working on the Cambrian explosion. This article has been making slow progress for about three years, and it would be lovely to improve not just the article itself, but Wikipedia's coverage of related areas in this important but neglected field! I'd be very grateful if you would consider helping out where you can!
