Here are some tasks awaiting attention:

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Other : * Out of date turtle articles abound, mainly taxonomy issues, get a list here and scroll down for articles.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.

Article name edit

I will be working on an overhaul of this article along the lines of the redone red-footed tortoise article. One question- does anyone know why the preferred name here is 'Brazilian giant tortoise' rather than 'yellow-footed tortoise'? Madkins007 (talk) 04:43, 6 August 2012 (UTC)Reply

No idea to be honest, the person who first created the page knew it as that name. yellow-footed tortoise would be much better, IUCN use that. Regards, SunCreator ^(talk) 07:48, 6 August 2012 (UTC)Reply
