Picture of the day Colias croceus, also known as the clouded yellow, is a small butterfly of the family Pieridae, the yellows and whites. Its breeding range is North Africa and southern Europe and eastwards through Turkey into the Middle East, but it occurs throughout much of Europe as a summer migrant, sometimes as far north as Scandinavia. In Asia, its range extends into central Siberia in the north and barely into India in the south, although it is not found in Central Asia. The species can live in any open area in the countryside, including downland, coastal cliffs and fields containing the caterpillar's host plants, at an elevation up to 1,600 metres (5,200 ft) above sea level. Colias croceus has a wingspan of 46–54 millimetres (1.8–2.1 in), with the upperside of its wing being golden to orange yellow with a broad black margin on all four wings and a black spot near the centre forewing. This mating pair was photographed in Pirin National Park, Bulgaria.Photograph credit: Charles J. Sharp Archive – More featured pictures...Common Sense
From IRC:
Raul654: oh, and snowspinner, I've come to a conclusion Raul654: making policy on wikipedia is hard Raul654: because there are people who oppose any common sense measures JamesF: Raul> Indeed. Snowspinner: Yes. I came to that conclusion as well. Raul654: I have decided that it's better to shoot first and ask questions later ;) Snowspinner: Cool. Snowspinner: I'm in that camp too now. Raul654: seriously Raul654: don't worry about making common sense policy Raul654: just do things with common sense Raul654: and wait for policy to catch up
Use common sense.
I'm Snowspinner. I left Misplaced Pages for a few days, but have been successfully prevailed upon by Jimbo to return. So here I am. Woot. As of July 31st, 2004, I am entrusted with a mop and a bucket. WikiworkI am the creator of WikiProject Critical Theory. If you'd like to help out with the project, we'd love to have you. I am also a member of WikiProject Philosophy, and Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Sexology and Sexuality. Articles I have done substantial work on include:
Articles which I hope to do meaningful work on soon include

Wiki attitudesI briefly considered running for the arbitration committee, before withdrawing on the grounds that I felt I could better serve Misplaced Pages by compiling evidence instead of hearing it. An expanded version of my statement and beliefs on the role of the arbcom can be found at /arbcom i am largely an inclusionist, and do not think that an article need be perfect to be worth keeping. I think a lot of articles that go on VfD get deleted when what they need is a serious rewrite. What follows is a list of articles I've "saved" from VfD by providing some amount of rewrite. | |||||
Memorable MomentsA few milestones from my talk page. BarnstarAfter reading Misplaced Pages:Trolling I decided I must award you a barnstar. Thank you for your contributions to the community! Also, if you have a chance, could you give me your thoughts on this? --H. CHENEY 03:01, 10 Jul 2004 (UTC) SysopAfter a new record of 62 votes in your favour at RfA, you are now an administrator. When you get over the shock of having such a scary number of people voting for you, you should read the relevant policies and other pages linked to from the administrators' reading list before carrying out tasks like deletion, protection, banning users, and editing protected pages such as the Main Page. Most of what you do is easily reversible by other sysops, apart from page history merges and image deletion, so please be especially careful with those. You might find the administrators' how-to guide helpful. Good luck. :) Angela. 17:56, Jul 31, 2004 (UTC) LirDon't talk to me. Lirath Q. Pynnor |
