Animal Toy Wiki changes/edits/additions ?

I was wondering who to talk to about edits or additions to the Animal Toy Wiki

I may have others, but for now I've noticed that under the manufacturer Toy Major (TM) and then Amphibians,

the wiki list tadpole B and tadpole C, but is are missing tadpoles A and D.  I have all four in the developmental series (although the letters are not arranged in the correct developmental order strangely).  So, I could provide images if needed. 

Also, the wiki lists Salamander A, but then doesn't include a picture of it.  I have Salamander A - which is a jumbo sized spotted salamander, Ambystoma maculatum.  so, that entry could be linked to the mole salamander page, etc.  And again, I could provide an image if needed.

Animal Toy Wiki is maintained by administrators of the STS forum.

They have a thread for corrections here: https://sts-forum.forumieren.de/t20783p350-corrections-for-toy-animal-wiki

I think most if not all admins of STS forum are also members here :)

I don't see a problem in having a thread for TAW corrections in this forum too, besides the one in STS :)

Salamander77

That would be great. 

I saw the link to that forum and visited it for a second. 

What's the difference between the two forums?  Does one emphasize one aspect of animal figure collection over another or something?  I'd probably rather not join another animal toy forum, but can if necessary. 

Thanks

I don't think STS administrators follow ATF enough. You'll get much faster results if you use the thread on their forum.

if you do make comments here, flag @Roger and @Kikimalou so they see them.

@bmathison1972 thanks for flagging me. @Salamander77 your information is very useful for Toy Animal Wiki. We don't have catalogues about Toy Major figures, so our knowledge about their releases depends exclusively of what is shared with us or through sales we find online. That's one of the reasons why some links don't have pictures. We find the information that there is a salamander with A marked and a certain year but obviously we can't use the picture of the online sale. Thus, we add the information to be used as reference to another editor. Step by step we can complete some sets or series at the Wiki.
If you want to share pictures of your models, you can do it here flagging me because I don't check every post on ATF. Though, I'd be glad of adding them on TAW. You can also use the STS-Forum topic linked here, it is easier for most of TAW editors and it uses the exact same code as ATF.

ok, thanks @Roger, I just joined the STS forum, so I'll make a post over there in the appropriate thread in the next day or so.

Perfect, if you need some help, just pm me here or on STS.

ok, I just tried to submit a post with images but I got an error message that I'm not allowed to post images from external hosting sites for 7 days, so I'll try again next week
