This is a small and recently discovered genus of rodents from Madagascar. The articles on the genus and the three species are all GAs. I intend to submit the lead article and that on V. gymnocaudus to FAC, so that this topic can become a FT. --Ucucha 09:46, 24 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I forgot to add—if desired, the article on Andreacarus voalavo (a parasitic mite that is only found on Voalavo gymnocaudus) can be included. I would prefer not to have it, since it is not clearly a subtopic of Voalavo (it could be found on other species, for example). Ucucha 10:05, 24 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Voalavo gymnocaudus is now an FA. Voalavo will probably be my next FAC; if that passes, this will fulfil the FT criteria. Ucucha 12:25, 12 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Support. Clearly a well-defined category; I do not support the addition of Andreacarus voalavo as this is currently purely for the genus. I know Voalavo antsahabensis is a decent article, as I'm the one who passed it, and the other two, after a brief look through, are looking very nice. File:Voalavo range.svg could be the picture for this category? J Milburn (talk) 10:57, 27 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks. I've added the map; it's not very good-looking at this resolution but better than nothing. Ucucha 11:02, 27 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'd like to promote this but would like another comment or two just to make sure nothing's missing. Wizardman _{Operation Big Bear} 03:22, 22 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Support - all looks OK to me....... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:17, 24 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Since Voalavo is currently at FAC, I'm just going to wait so that this can be promoted as an FT, if that's alright. Makes it easier on both ends I think. Wizardman _{Operation Big Bear} 00:07, 29 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sure. Forgot to note here that I had brought it to FAC. Ucucha 00:08, 29 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Voalavo just passed FAC, so this can now become an FT. Ucucha 04:08, 19 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
