In order to create and improve the quality of entries on mammals (either living or extinct), various Wikipedias have created a version of WikiProject: Mammals. As part of their work writing about mammals, these projects have identified many articles that use copyrighted images, images that are inappropriate for describing the characteristics of the animal, or no images at all. During the 2012-2013 academic year, students at Llotja in Barcelona created scientific illustrations of animals for Wikipedia. They were advised by Alistair Ian Spearing (User:Leptictidium), a scientific translator and the main organizer behind the Catalan version of WikiProject:Mammals, and received the support of Luís Casado, a scientific illustration lecturer at Llotja.
