Silver Carp

Great work on the Silver carp article. Perhaps you could answer a question I wondered about them. If silver carp are edible, why aren't bears, wolves, herons, and people chowing down on them like mad? They certainly seem plentiful enough, and easy to catch by scaring out of the water.

Carp References

References in wikipedia might be a bit complicated at first but I'm sure you can do it properly in no time. The quick way is to look at a good article, click "edit this page" of that article and see how they do it. Try this with articles with good references like cichlid or oscar (fish). If that system is too confusing for you, the following paragraph is a simpler way of doing it. Click "edit" to see how I did it. Good luck --Melanochromis 02:17, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

Silver carp question

Hi Carptracker. Yes, I did delete that, and I have no idea how it happened. I was merely forking some of your excellent contributions to another article. I deleted an out of date template, and somehow deleted that paragraph as well. Slip of the mouse. My apologies. --Geronimo20 (talk) 23:13, 24 June 2009 (UTC)

Sorry my message there probably looks a little like I am preaching to the converted, whereas I had my tongue in my cheek a little, since it is obviously a bogus claim.

You could perhaps cast an eye over the DAB African carp, I put the common names first for the blue links that were there, do you think that is wise? It won't take a sec, there are only seven links, of which only two are blue. The Latin names are redirects to the common names anyway, and as it is in a category for common names, it made sense to me to link it to the articles with the common names, and put the Latin after.
