[edit]Random WikiProject Algae pages
[edit]- I basically have been picking pages at my whimsy, trying to focus on improving Stub articles though
- Also possibly getting Chloroplast to Good article status (see discussion on the Talk page)
Updating the List of members of the National Academy of Sciences
[edit]- See my NAS_Scientists subpage for details on the project (and lots of red linked, definitely notable scientists)
- I started this project as a good "new to Wikipedia" project that I stumbled across, but as a certified achievement hunter, I'm committed now
- Also seems to be a good way to identify notable scientists that do not have pages yet
Future pages and projects
[edit]- Gloeomargarita - genus from which chloroplasts evolved[Note 1] I'm shocked this doesn't already exist (although Gloeomargarita lithophora does at least)
- chromatophore (endosymbiotic organelle) - not to be confused with chromatophore—pigmented cells in some animals—or chromatophore—the membrane associated vesicle in some bacteria. (This may just be a part of reworking the Chloroplast article, hence no red link)
Endosymbiosis Project (theoretical)
[edit]- this is my primary area of expertise and I'd love to create a category for obligate endosymbionts[Note 2] (e.g. Buchnera aphidicola
Draft and WIP Articles

Miscellaneous
[edit]a list of (some of) my favorite random pages
Footnotes
[edit]- ^ Highly simplified language for brevity. As always, this is sort of like saying "humans evolved from monkeys" (or my preferred way of saying this incorrectly, "monkeys evolved from humans")
- ^ Possibly restricted to non-pathogens and possibly host-beneficial. This is a hard line to draw and one day I'll publish a full on opinion/review in a peer-reviewed journal. Just give me 5-10 business years.
