Here are some tasks awaiting attention:

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Other : * Out of date turtle articles abound, mainly taxonomy issues, get a list here and scroll down for articles.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

do turtles change shells? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.151.161.217 (talk • contribs) .

No. You're probably thinking of hermit crabs. —Keenan Pepper 23:23, 30 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Headline text[edit]

Yes! Please change these into different articles! Something on reptiles shells shouldn't be shared with airplanes! Grantnolan (talk) 01:08, 6 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Name[edit]

Origin of the word? I assume it's greek? Danceswithzerglings (talk) 15:11, 16 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Split[edit]

Perhaps split this article into Plastron and Plastron (biology)? Regards, SunCreator ^(talk) 11:00, 15 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Ok there is a section of the Turtle shell artical now that covers all the biology section here. How should I deal with this on this page? Cheers, Faendalimas ^talk 08:32, 11 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Have made this page a redirect to Turtle shell. As per dissambiguation guidlines I see the other meanings as disctionary definitions and trivial, however I have left the other information on the page for future use. Faendalimas ^talk 07:21, 26 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
