Here are some tasks awaiting attention:

Copyedit : Green sea turtle!
Expand : Emydidae, Tortoise, Spotted turtle, Glyptemys
Photo : Find a photo of turtle articles needing a photo
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Other : * Out of date turtle articles abound, mainly taxonomy issues, get a list here and scroll down for articles.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.
- Patrol: recent changes to turtle articles and check for improvements or errors.

Text and/or other creative content from this version of Spiny softshell turtle was copied or moved into Gulf Coast spiny softshell turtle with this edit. The former page's history now serves to provide attribution for that content in the latter page, and it must not be deleted as long as the latter page exists.

Geographic Range[edit]

The page currently states: "...found along the Gulf of Mexico from North Carolina to Mississippi...." A quick look at the map will show that this makes no sense. And, the cited reference is about animals "of the Great Lakes Region", which is nowhere near the Gulf of Mexico. Anyone want to fix this?? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ba2kell (talk • contribs) 15:25, 17 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Edits[edit]

Hey so I know this page is of low importance, but I really like spiny soft shell turtles and I thought it looked barren so i went ahead and added some decent information and finished the Taxbox. I also added 4 or 5 references and a picture that really showed the descriptive features of this turtle.Darth Eicher (talk) 03:07, 16 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
