Ladies and Gentlemen, this just got real
As some of you may know, I check in on the old wiki every once and awhile to see if anyone replied anything worthwhile. Today's visit came up with nothing but continued trolling. However, I has surprised upon searching "Speculative Evolution Wiki" to find our wiki as the second result.
Previously, you could go a few pages (and realistically, nobody actually goes past the first page) and still not find us. I don't know how far back you had to go (or if we appeared at all), but nobody was getting here directly. However, with this, more people are actually going to find this place now.
This will mean new members. But beware. The trolls will find us now to. You know what happened on the old wiki, and what it has become - trolls spam it to this d…
Admin Notices 11/8/14
Just a few quicks notes. After going through a few things about a week ago, I cam across a few pages I'm not sure what to do with. So it's time to go through the garbage and do a community trash day.
Advenatus: We can't keep projects by innactive members or small projects not being updated. Advenatus fits under both. We can't have it laying around, so I say we do away with it.
Animula and Thalassa: Now, I'm not saying they're not good content. But both appear to be innactive. I won't go either way, so we'll see what the consensus is.
Ryū No Toge No Shima: It's another Advenatus. I don't want to give up on it yet, but it doesn't look good for this projects future.
Pongolese and Chimpan (Novellus): We can't just have two random creatures from a pot…
The Storm is Coming
Ok, so Wikia has a stupid new nav that nobody likes that's going to be Wikia wide soon, and it's not allowed to be customizable. See here. And READ THE COMMENTS. And pitch in in the debate against this feature.
Screw Wikia.
This is going to mess with our theme. The white in the wallpaper or whatever it's called (darwin and the chimp) is already to much, but this will make it just all white with a hint of green. I'm going to start going insane if this wiki gets any whiter.
The Future of Sumatra
Short story short I started this project on the forums. However, it's presented in story like fashion, from the perspective of a human, and having pages just wouldn't work at all. So this is going to be a forum only project. However, I figured I'd at least post the intro over here as a blog post, hence you reading this. And yes, I realize the first part is way to long and mostly unecesary.
It's a normal day in lab. Well, except for the looming excitement of the discovery of a potential new species. Tessa Gallant, a student studying Field Biology, and with an interest in Parasitology. On vacation in Kenya, she came across an odd Duiker Carcass, and decided to take it back to perform a necropsy. It was obvious from the start it died from a pa…
Caudaspondyli
Insular magic. An informal term that generally refers to how odd insular taxa are compared to their relatives. Whether because the envrionmental restrictions and potentials, or the lack of competition, the islands themselves drive their castaways to become some of the most unqiue vertebrates alive today. Darwin's finches, the flightless kakapo, the giant extinct Nuralagus, the ectothermic Myotragus; these are just some highlights among many, many of such taxa. The Caudaspondyli, are another.
Endemic to volcanic islands off the coast of mainland Europe, the Conni islands have very little in mammal divesity. Instead, birds and reptiles have dominated the archipelago. One of the major small herbivorous groups are the Caudaspondyli, or neckless l…
