The stinging quotes

I suppose it would be too much to ask for attribution for those three "stinging testimonials" in the article? They sound like they were lifted out of an article in a children's magazine. --Ardonik.talk()* July 3, 2005 11:10 (UTC)

How so? Simply because they may sound immature does not mean that they are useful quotes? They DO emphasize how painful the sting must be. After all, they ARE quotes. - Xer0X 13:58, 11 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
I also particularly love the explanation of larva feeding on the spider 216.79.252.71 10:26, 16 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The sting comments aside, the description is thorough and pleasing, though a picture would be nice, they are spectacular wasps - I was especially pleased to read of their nectivory, an important point in assuaging fears of encountering one of these invertebrate gods and goddesses 69.3.185.112 01:25, 15 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
