Hey, you missed out: *Plankton! - episode 3b(7) of SpongeBob SquarePants (season 1) I am impressed, though, that we have this article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradox_of_the_plankton And *three* articles on plankton surveys. Not stubs either. Really rather nice articles: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuous_Plankton_Recorder http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australian_Continuous_Plankton_Recorder_Survey http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SCAR_Southern_Ocean_Continuous_Plankton_Recorder_Survey Ooh, look: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diel_vertical_migration http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thin_layers_(oceanography) I hope the SpongeBob SquarePants fans that went looking for information on their favorite characters are reading these articles! :-) Carcharoth PS. And people wonder why there is debate over articles on fiction? _______________________________________________ WikiEN-l mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe from this mailing list, visit: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikien-l
