Some ideas for contributions
Hi Kara,
welcome here! I saw that you had difficulties starting Vagina, so I set up its metadata subpage for you. If you want to continue with this and related articles, here are a few links that may be of help in the process (for icon documentation, see Template:Rpl/Doc):
Vagina [r]: A canal in the reproductive tract of female mammals connecting the uterus to the external genital orifice. [e]- Uterus [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Cervix [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Ovary [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Vulva [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Urethra [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Urogenital tract [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Penis [r]: A male sexual organ for transmission of semen into the female reproductive tract. [e]
- Birth [r]: In non-egg-laying animals, the moment in which the offspring leaves the body of the mother (in some species, for the first time) or, in very few cases, of the father. [e]
- Birth canal [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Brain size [r]: Umbrella term for various measures of how big a brain is. [e]
If you want to start a new article, you can also simply go to CZ:Start Article, and if anything is not clearly documented, feel free to ask me or anyone else whom you see on Recent Changes. Cheers, --Daniel Mietchen 22:28, 8 May 2010 (UTC)
