Your entity file looks ok, have you tried removing all non-civ tags? like [BIOME:(so and such)] from the creature? I'm going to copy your code and run some tests... I'll get back to you

Hey finally got your mod problem fixed (played in adventure mode and there was seveal skeleton civs :D) Idk what the problem was really, but I did remove alot of tags from the entity and creature files (the entity I didn't need to remove all the clothing oops.. you could add them back in)
here is the complete contents of your civ (creature and entity)
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
I'd suggest making a new .txt doc for the creature and entity file and copy paste into them (creature_skeleton.txt and entity_skeleton.txt but thats just my opion) hopefully this works for you

well it worked on mine... wait the [ADVTIER:7] you got a ton of civs? Try genning a very large map, and tweaking the max civs to 60 instead of 50 and turn the savagry down, I genned with a very large map and I have at least 5-6 civs, plus yours for the testing, Orcs, Humans, Elves, Dwarves, Dark Dwarves, Kobolds, Giant Roaches, and Urk Dashas + Skeleton thats 9 civs... I should gen with a smaller map. Try that, its pulling a "Screamer" moment on you (creature I created but it never shows up)

Thats what i thought too so I input it into a vanilla DF and still does not work. No skeleton civs exist whatsoever.

*Sigh* i've run out of Ideas, but this last one that is so crazy my mind melts at the thought (cuz it works, just maybe not the way I think it will) goto the HUMAN entity (PLAINS) and copy the [CREATURE:HUMAN] paste it under and change HUMAN to SKELETON now the world gen will change between the two creatures to inhabit a town (makes neighbors messed up make sure it says "Undead" not "Humans" at the embark screen) thats my last and probally worst idea ever, at the moment

Just modify the dwarf entry's instead of the human entry.  Change a few tags at a time and see when they stop being placed in worldgen.  My guess is the population size tags or [LARGEPREADATOR] or [BABYSNATCHER] confused the game.
