Taxonomy: For all marine species, Project Gastropods uses the taxonomy in the online database WoRMS. When starting a new article, do not use sources of taxonomic information that predate the 2017 revision for all gastropod groups ("Revised Classification, Nomenclator and Typification of Gastropod and Monoplacophoran Families" by Philippe Bouchet & Jean-Pierre Rocroi, Bernhard Hausdorf, Andrzej Kaim, Yasunori Kano, Alexander Nützel, Pavel Parkhaev, Michael Schrödl and Ellen E. Strong in Malacologia, 2017, 61(1–2): 1–526.) (can be dowloaded at Researchgate.net), substituting the previous classification of 2005 Taxonomy of the Gastropoda (Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005). If you need help with any aspect of an article, please leave a note at the Project talk page.

I've created Navanax as a redirect to Navanax inermis, and marked it as a redirect with possibilities. This is slightly nonstandard practice, as the genus Navanax is a supra-topic, not a subtopic, of Navanax inermis. Wikipedia:Redirect implies in passing that {{R with possibilities}} can be used for supra-topics as well as subtopics, even though the definition of Category: Redirects with possibilities refers specifically to redirects from subtopics. I was unable to find (quickly) any guidance as to any better way to handle redirects from supra-topics, so I went ahead and created the page as just described in accordance with WP:BOLD. —Neuromath 02:15, 13 January 2007 (UTC)Reply
