Taxonomy at WP:Fishes

I recently proposed that we change the Taxonomy used at the parent project to this one. The proposal was open for three weeks and received unanimous approval from the editors who took part. The WP:Fishes page has been updated Wikipedia:WikiProject Fishes#Taxonomy Quetzal1964 (talk) 09:11, 25 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Selachimorpha or Selachii?

Selachimorpha and Selachii are synonymous. While the shark page uses Selachimorpha, Galeomorphii and Squalomorphi pages use Selachii. But we should use only one. Which one should we use? I think we should use Selachii. Oh, by the way FotW5 uses Selachii. Jako96 (talk) 17:37, 5 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Jak096:. This wikiproject is largely dead. I recommend you take this to WT:TOL. Hemiauchenia (talk) 18:08, 5 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Jako96: corrected ping. Hemiauchenia (talk) 18:09, 5 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

What if I take this to WT:FISH (I will)? Jako96 (talk) 20:58, 5 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Shark books/ Marine biology books

Can I make an article about different books that could be good sources to look at besides Wiki? Agent Hemlock (talk) 19:54, 24 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
