Discussion about new article on marine resources?

Do we need a new article on marine resources? I think yes, but it should be very short, just like a list article perhaps. See discussion in draft space here: https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Draft_talk:Marine_resources . EMsmile (talk) 07:58, 25 May 2022 (UTC)

Housekeeping: we now have a stand-alone short article on marine resources.EMsmile (talk) 20:43, 25 October 2022 (UTC)

What is the best redirect for "coastal waters"?

"Coaster waters" does not have an article, so where should it redirect to? Please see discussion here: https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Talk:Coastal_waters (if no further inputs come in then I'll redirect it to marine coastal ecosystem). EMsmile (talk) 09:35, 30 May 2022 (UTC)

Housekeeping comment: Coastal waters now redirects to here: Coast#Coastal waters.EMsmile (talk) 20:44, 25 October 2022 (UTC)

What climate/ocean photos do you need? (Climate Visuals)

Hi everyone, Climate Visuals is working to increase the photographs available to Wikimedia Commons in their library and is seeking insights from the Wikipedia community about the climate change photos you need and would use.

(The Climate Visuals library is designed to increase the impact and engagement of climate change photography and information via their creative commons photo gallery and evidence base).

What are the specific climate- and ocean-related topics that you need photos for? What articles or topic areas are you working on, or planning to work on, that could use more compelling photos?

Please do let me know below and I’ll pass the message on. Climate Visuals will use this info to collect and curate existing photos that would fill these gaps. Thanks! TatjanaBaleta (talk) 12:28, 22 March 2023 (UTC)
