Hi, I note your description of yourself on your userpage as being "a pair of students". As you may or may not be aware, Wikipedia policy bans multi-user accounts. If your account is for use by multiple people, I urge you to read WP:NOSHARE and possibly change your account to single-user. If, however, your account is not accessible by multiple users, then please disregard that last sentence. Thank you and happy editing, LordVetinari (talk) 23:37, 15 March 2011 (UTC)
Suggestion
Your stated interest being butterflies, I suggest you visit the Wikipedia Project page Wikipedia:WikiProject_Lepidoptera. That is the project page that concerns butterfly and moth articles on Wikipedia. You should find information on how to create and organize articles related to butterflies and moths and to improve existing articles. Safiel (talk) 05:28, 17 March 2011 (UTC)

Your butterfly articles
I have nominated your article Puget Trough prairie butterfly for deletion. However, I have moved three of the four butterflies to their own articles as follows:
The forth butterfly Speyeria zerene currently has an existing Wikipedia article. The information in your article concerning conservation duplicates numerous Wikipedia articles. You are welcome to improve these existing articles as well as improving the Butterfly articles. Safiel (talk) 19:35, 17 March 2011 (UTC)
