varecia[edit]

I studied them this summer in Mada and have some really cool pictures of working with them, if you would like to use some more pictures for this page. And isn't their name Varecia variegata(spelling?) editorum? JenniferL 17 13:56, 27 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

From the article:

There are three subspecies of Black-and-white Ruffed Lemur:

  • Varecia variegata variegata
  • Varecia variegata editorum
  • Varecia variegata subcincta

I don't think we need more pictures of them in the article. However, if you feel you have encyclopedia-worthy articles that could replace the two we have, please upload them to http://commons.wikipedia.org where they will be able to be used more easily by all of hte different language 'pedias. - UtherSRG (talk) 14:17, 27 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Upcoming major edits[edit]

I am currently in the process of preparing major edits for the current page, as well as the following (related) pages:

The edits will be similar in style to the major edit of Ring-tailed Lemur on 03:27, 20 June 2008. The goal is the same as it was for the Ring-tailed Lemur: to move the pages significantly beyond Start-class. As with the aforementioned major edit, I will make a significant effort to preserve as much of the existing text as possible. However, uncited material will not be represented if I am unable to find a reliable source.

The edits will be written off-line and tested in the sandbox, so the {{inuse}} tag will not be used when the major revision is ready. Sections will be added to either parallel those used on the Ring-tailed Lemur page, or (preferably) follow the proposed WikiProject Primates Article format. Information will be expanded greatly, and citations will be given. Range maps for the taxoboxes have already been provided. If you have any comments, suggestions, or concerns, please reply to this post, or leave a note on my talk page.

Sorry for the delays in posting these re-writes. Between new events in my personal life, time reallocated to improving the Ring-tailed Lemur article for an upcoming FA reveiw, and the re-writes taking longer than expected, it may take me a few more weeks before I am finished. At this point, the plan is to roll out the re-write of Ruffed lemur within the coming week, followed in a few weeks by the two species pages, and possibly followed by the creation of subspecies pages. Again, if you have comments or concerns, please leave a note on my talk page. - Visionholder (talk) 20:41, 3 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
A complete re-write of the Ruffed lemur page was posted late last night. I will now start working on re-writes for both this page and the Red Ruffed Lemur. At this point, I have no idea how long those re-writes will take. If I'm lucky, they'll be easy to write and they'll be done shortly. If not, it may take another month or more. I can assure you, though, that they will be completed within a reasonable amount of time. - Visionholder (talk) 18:56, 10 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Due to real life events and higher priority pages that need major revisions, I'm postponing the re-write of this page. It will be done eventually, but not any time soon. –Visionholder (talk) 20:51, 14 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Black-and-white ruffed lemur

Hi Maky - I just uploaded this beautiful B&W ruffed lemur shot from Flikr. Feel free to use if you like. Lemurbaby (talk) 06:45, 26 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Very nice pics! Thanks for uploading. One of these days I'll re-write these ruffed lemur articles, but since I already did Ruffed lemur, I'm not sure how what to say in these articles since it would be largely redundant. (The differences between the species are mostly color, location, conservation threats/status, and one vocalization.) Anyway, I'll be sure to put the images to good use. – Maky « talk » 14:19, 26 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
