Biology and medicine[edit]

In addition to Dinosaur Project contributions and TimVickers (talk · contribs) (who helped save Tuberculosis at FAR), WP:WBFAN shows Casliber (talk · contribs) to a top contributor to that category, with birds, cats, mushrooms and he helped save Schizophrenia and Asperger syndrome at WP:FAR.

Biography articles[edit]

The other big statistic I pulled out of that analysis I did at the weekend was biography articles. The figure of 403 featured biographical articles about people. Could you squeeze that in as a sentence that there are other ways to cut up the FA cake? Maybe, along with a mention that there are far too many articles on Wikipedia about people... :-) Nearly 500,000 if I recall correctly. Yes, see the total at Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Biography articles by quality statistics (that does include the music group articles, unfortunately). The 500,000 number is not really accurate enough to use except as a wild estimate (and if even 0.1% of the biography articles are untagged, that would be 500 untagged articles). Sorry, that is getting way off topic. But could the 403 figure be included? Carcharoth (talk) 18:20, 25 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Image layout[edit]

Stupid Signpost logo, hey! :-) The chart did look better on the right, but hey. Carcharoth (talk) 18:20, 25 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
