News Please welcome our new members: Toniher (talk · contribs), MiltonT (talk · contribs), Regani.de (talk · contribs), Codenametiger (talk · contribs) User:DSWebb has created "breedbox" which replaced the taxobox in all goldfish breed articles. See our discussion here. User:MiltonT has created the "Aquarium and Fishkeeping Hobby" box which has been placed in many articles in the category:fishkeeping. See discussion here. In the past two weeks, four different articles have achieved the good article status. They are Oscar, Pelvicachromis pulcher, Fish, Cichlid. User:MidgleyDJ deserves our praise for arduously contributing to most of these improvements. Kribensis has become a disambiguation page. The original contents were moved to Pelvicachromis pulcher. The Portal:Fish has added a new feature - the Fish Quiz. Feel free to come test your knowledge, interact with other fish editors, try to win the game and collect a special prize. The project now has an award program for outstanding and exceptional editors.

This policy covers the selection of scientific and common names as article titles. It will have a significant impact on a large number of fish articles. See or join the discussion here. Related to this discussion is the title change of the article Mayan cichlid to Cichlasoma urophthalmus. Aquarium, a featured article since 2005, has been proposed for a review which may lead to the article being de-featured. See the proposal and discuss here. Discuss how to improve the article here.
