Wiki Education Foundation-supported course assignment

This article was the subject of a Wiki Education Foundation-supported course assignment, between 12 January 2020 and 25 May 2020. Further details are available on the course page. Student editor(s): Jwgrand3, Theleot, MClarus23.

Description of molluscs

It said: "Molluscs (from the Latin molluscus, meaning soft ) are invertebrates with soft bodies that are not segmented like crustaceans. Bivalves and gastropods are protected by a calcareous shell which grows as the mollusc grows."

This is not a good description. Monoplacophora do show segmentation. These are not eaten, but the description above appear to include all molluscs, so one would have had to point this out. Crustaceans would not have been the only group of sea creatures that show segmentation even if that was the case; vertebrates are segmented, so are annelids. And marine chelicerates too, even if they are not eaten. There are many gastropods that don't have shell. The edible species do, but readers visiting the article could get the wrong impression. Therefore the introduction is trimmed and slightly modified. 46.212.117.57 (talk) 09:52, 23 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

freshwater seafood

The list includes freshwater organisms as seafood, however the definition only includes saltwater organisms.

The definition should be updated to include freshwater. 149.22.193.45 (talk) 03:33, 11 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Initial paragraphs elimination

Apparently there was an edit back in the 16th of February in which most of the initial paragraphs of the article were eliminated. Is there a particular reason for this? I think the removed text helped situate the article (and after the removal of it, the definition is partly incomplete). AjajpAlejandro (talk) 12:27, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
