Austracantha minax

A christmas spider

5x expanded by Obsidian Soul (talk). Self nominated at 18:56, 5 December 2014 (UTC).

  • Great hook. EEng (talk) 22:00, 7 December 2014 (UTC)
  • Symbol confirmed.svg · Nominated timely, well over 5X, well cited, spot checked for copyvio, spotcheck for image licensing. I didn't make this change myself for fear of infuriating Aussies and Kiwis, but I think the passage re "In Australia it's called Xmas Spider since it's prevalent in summer months" needs some bit of further explanation lest many readers be scratching their heads. After all, by far most of our English-speaking readers are in the N Hemisphere.
I prefer ALT1. This should go in the Xmas hold area. EEng (talk) 19:59, 9 December 2014 (UTC)
That's actually why I phrased it that way, LOL. Christmas is usually associated with winter and snow. The hook is mystifying enough that people might want to click it just to see why. :P -- OBSIDIANSOUL 21:53, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

I meant in the article itself. Sad to say I think many people won't get the Australia connection re reversed seasons unless it's explicitly pointed out. It's fine that the hook doesn't explain it -- thus people will click. (And we'll probably get some bonehead Main Page Error reports too.) EEng (talk) 22:30, 9 December 2014 (UTC)
