Here are some tasks awaiting attention:

Copyedit : Green sea turtle!
Expand : Emydidae, Tortoise, Spotted turtle, Glyptemys
Photo : Find a photo of turtle articles needing a photo
Stubs : Expand a stub article.
Update : Emydidae, Tortoise
Other : * Out of date turtle articles abound, mainly taxonomy issues, get a list here and scroll down for articles. Taxonomy information is available in WikiProject Turtles resources.
- {{Extinct turtles}} and fossil forms of both living and extinct turtles requires attention:many extinct articles require either expansion or creation and sources seems hard to come by. A list of fossil forms is being compiled so progress can be charted.
- Patrol: recent changes to turtle articles and check for improvements or errors.

What kind of turtle is this?[edit]

Hi, just noting that this image was removed from the page Hawksbill sea turtle on the grounds that it's not actually a Hawksbill turtle, it's actually a green turtle. And judging by pages like [1], a key way to tell Hawksbill and Green apart is the beaked bill on the Hawksbill, which the pic clearly doesn't have, so the removal seems legitimate. I'm not certain if it actually is a green turtle though, I'm not enough of an expert on that so would hesitate to just put it as a pic at green turtle directly. So seeking advice here, if you think a delist or just using the image elsewhere is appropriate. Pinging @MER-C, Adam Cuerden, Bammesk, PetarM, Sca, ScienceFan66, and Armbrust: who were involved in the FPC for this pic. Cheers — Amakuru (talk) 10:37, 23 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I know nothing about its removal. -- Sca (talk) 12:12, 23 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Might be a good idea to put it up for demotion. Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 8.5% of all FPs.} 17:56, 23 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I am Ok with demoting it. That will fix the confusion. We do have an older FP of a Green turtle here: [2]. The more recent FP [3] has higher resolution. We can add the more recent FP to the Green turtle article and demote (delist) the older FP. I don't have strong feelings about it either way. Bammesk (talk) 01:24, 24 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
