Hi Narabella, Welcome to Wikipedia! It looks as if you are perhaps rather interested in mollusks? That's great! Here on Wikipedia we have a group of editors who like to write about and organize info about gastropods, snails and slugs of every kind. I wonder if you might be interested in joining us or at least checking out our project? By the way if there is anything that I can do to help you, please let me know.

I've noticed your edits on pages relating to Gastropods; perhaps you'd be interested in joining WikiProject Gastropods? If you would like more information, please visit the project page or the project talk page.

Best wishes to you, and thanks so much for the 2 gastropod articles you started. Invertzoo (talk) 20:55, 12 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome! A very big WELCOME to WikiProject Gastropods for you, a new member! We are delighted that you decided to join the Project! Thank you so much for your interest, and please let me know if there is anything I can do to help you, either in general or with gastropod articles in particular. Best, Invertzoo (talk) 18:32, 21 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. I am inviting members of some WikiProjects to take part in evaluating their projects in order to help the Wikimedia Foundation better understand such projects from the inside, to encourage reflection on best practices, and to compile a list of best practices as recommended by a number of projects. I am contacting you because you are listed as an active member of Wikipedia:WikiProject Gastropods. Having witnessed that project's work in the past in my volunteer capacity, I'd very much like to include it. I hope that you will have time and interest in participating. As much or as little as you would like to supply would be gratefully received. The assessment questions are posted at Wikipedia:WikiProject Gastropods/Self-assessment. I will myself steer clear of the page until after any discussion seems to have become dormant, at which point I will ask questions to make sure that I am developing a good overview of opinions. Thanks. --Maggie Dennis (WMF) (talk) 13:03, 7 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
