Disambiguation link notification for May 22[edit]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Musaceae, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Musella. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

"Expanded" taxonomies[edit]

This isn't Wikidata. We don't have articles discussing all the possible circumscriptions of a given taxonomic name. Instead, we have articles covering particular taxa, regardless of what name that group has been called. --EncycloPetey (talk) 04:17, 28 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Addition of plant numbers[edit]

Plant taxonomy, and hence the number of species, genera, etc., is not a matter of fixed facts. All taxonomy is to some degree a matter of opinion. So when you add information based on one source – in your case Christenhusz & Byng (2016) – you need to do so with care, respecting the taxonomy already in use in the article, and the information and sources it uses. This is not an objection to adding data from Christenhusz & Byng (2016), but merely to say that you need to proceed with more care, respecting all sources.

Consider, as one example, how you left the Cannabaceae article. After your edit, it said "'As now circumscribed, the family includes about 100 species in about 8 genera,[ref to Christenhusz & Byng, 2016] including Cannabis (hemp, marijuana), Humulus (hops) and Celtis (hackberries). Celtis is by far the largest genus, containing about 100 species.[ref to APweb]" This is clearly inconsistent, and is based on different circumscriptions, which need analysing and explaining. The list of genera later in the article also needs fixing, since it lists 9 genera. I can't access Christenhusz & Byng (2016) so I don't know whether it lists the genera; if not, then it's hard to reconcile with sources that do. Discuss the differences in a Taxonomy section, by all means, but don't put something in the lead (which is supposed to summarize the article) which is contradictory. Peter coxhead (talk) 08:21, 8 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with Peter's caveats. This recent and useful reference seems to have been added to a large number of pages. I would be happy to share it with those interested, but I suggest it be reformatted as follows -

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Maarten J. M. Christenhusz, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Taxonomy (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

List of short species names moved to draftspace[edit]

An article you recently created, List of short species names, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Speciose[edit]

Speciose is mainly used in taxonomy and means "rich in species" (see Wiktionary: speciose).

Specious can mean "having an attractive appearance intended to generate a favorable response" (see:Wiktionary: specious)

I think that you are confusing both terms. JoJan (talk) 15:58, 20 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
