Amesiella minor ↗ moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Amesiella minor ↗, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs citations from reliable ↗, independent sources ↗. <small>(? ↗)</small> 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 "<code>Draft:</code>" 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. <span style="color:green">''Josey Wales''</span><sup> <span style="color:#0000CD">''Parley''</span></sup> 23:21, 27 January 2022 (UTC)

:Hello Conan, This is why you need to include references in the articles you start. Unreferenced articles generally are deleted or put in draft then deleted after a few months. Please do take my advice and include the reference when publishing on the mainspace. Otherwise just leave the article in your sandbox until you do include one (or preferably more) references to it, then place it on the mainspace. If you need a hand with referencing I will help you out so ping me if you need. Regards. Hughesdarren (talk) 08:49, 28 January 2022 (UTC)

Problems!

Hello Conan Wolff,

Thanks for your work, but there are several problems that you are creating, especially with redirects. For example, you have redirected the article about ''Papillilabium beckleri'' to ''Plectorrhiza ↗'', losing all the information about the former, now known as ''Plectorrhiza beckleri''. There is (was) a similar problem with the monotypic ''Schistotylus''. Please fix the problem with ''Papillilabium beckleri''/''Plectorrhiza beckleri''.

I've also seen articles such as ''Phalaenopsis lobbii ↗'' and ''Vanda dives ↗'' that have references with little meaning to most readers. What does "Bot. Mus. Leafl. 23 179 (1972)" mean? Do you have access to "Gard. Chron., n.s., 4: 130 (1875)" and "W.W.Saunders, Refug. Bot. 2: t. 85 (1870)"? Who were the authors of "Amer. Orchid Soc. Bull. 40: 1094 (1971)" and what is "Amer. Orchid Soc. Bull."?

I do appreciate your interest in orchids but ask that you slow down and seek discussion before creating redirects, especially when articles that took hours to research and write are lost. Gderrin (talk) 21:29, 22 February 2022 (UTC)

{{reply to|Gderrin}} Yes, i see why that would bother you. I do intend to create articles with the information formerly contained within the re-directed articles. However, since it can be accessed through the view history I had postponed it to later on this week. Do you want me to take back the re-directs for the moment?

Well I thought it would be good to ciite the original publications of the species name. Alternatively I could just cite Plants of the World Online, which then provides that information indirectly. The authors are always given behind the species names. The publication of their work is then named in the references. Conan Wolff (talk) 21:39, 22 February 2022 (UTC)

:Thanks. Yes, please undo the redirect. ''Papillilabium beckleri'' is an accepted name at the Australian Plant Census ↗,<ref name=APC>{{cite web|title=''Papillilabium beckleri''|url= https://biodiversity.org.au/nsl/services/apc-format/display/86655|publisher=Australian Plant Census|access-date=22 February 2022}}</ref> then discuss any proposed redirect. And please do not cite books or journal articles that you do not have access to. Gderrin (talk) 22:00, 22 February 2022 (UTC)

{{reply to|Gderrin}} Yes, okay. I undid my redirects. I will be more careful with any cleanup activities in future. I just wanted to contribute to current nomenclature. Conan Wolff (talk) 22:14, 22 February 2022 (UTC)

{{reply to|Gderrin}} So should I delete the citations of the original species publications of the authors, or should I leave them there? I have access to the monographies of Vanda and Phalaenopsis, but not necessarily all the journals in which the species were published. But would't there be a benefit in pointing to the original texts? I mean that is where the names were first published. And this information is also given in many studies on the species. Conan Wolff (talk) 22:20, 22 February 2022 (UTC)
::Conan Wolff - can I thank you again for your work? I also appreciate the changes you've made as a result of my whinge. The article WP:CS ↗, especially the section WP:SAYWHEREYOUREADIT ↗ are relevant. Certainly citing a monograph (eg. <ref name="Motes">{{cite book |last1=Motes |first1=Martin R. |title=Vandas : their botany, history, and culture |date=1997 |publisher=Timber Press |location=Portland, Oregon |isbn=0881923761 |pages=22–23}}</ref>) would be ideal. But books and journals to which you do not have access, should not be cited. Gderrin (talk) 23:35, 22 February 2022 (UTC)
{{Reflist talk}}
:::Not all your redirects are inappropriate though. For example, all the species in ''Malleola'' have been transferred to ''Robiquetia ↗'' and no articles have be written about any ''Malleola'' species. (The image of ''Malleola aberrans'' could safely be added to the ''Robiquetia ↗'' article as ''Robequetia aberrans''.) All the species in the ''Malleola'' list have equivalent names in ''Robiquetia'' (or are synonyns of a ''Robiquetia'' species or subspecies), apart from ''M. pallida'', now known as ''Saccolabiopsis pallida''. So the ''Saccolabiopsis ↗'' list needs updating too.
:::All of which indicates to me that we need you to keep going! Gderrin (talk) 01:32, 23 February 2022 (UTC)

{{reply to|Gderrin}} Yes, thank you for the kind words. Your contributions to the presentation of the Australian flora is also commendable.

Alright, I will only name the authors in future and cite Plants of the World Online by the Royal Botanic Gardens Kew. The book you mention by Martin Motes has received an "update", so to speak. He published another monograph "The Natural Genus Vanda" last year, which I actually got for my birthday and I do refer to it in ''Vanda'' articles.

There is certainly enough to do in regard to Aeridineae articles. Currently I aim to complete species articles of ''Phalaenopsis''.Conan Wolff (talk) 15:59, 23 February 2022 (UTC)

Conan Wolff (and ping {{ping|Gderrin}}), any pointers as to what was up with Seidenfadeniella ↗? It seems as is the redirect was justified - POW does treat the name as either synonymized or unplaced, so why was the redirect first implemented and then undone? https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Seidenfadeniella&diff=1073471516&oldid=1073386727 ↗ I have reinstated it. --<span style="font-family:Courier">Elmidae</span> <small>(talk · contribs ↗)</small> 13:03, 10 March 2022 (UTC)

{{reply to|Elmidae}} I was asked to take redirects back, which I did. A lot of changes have been made in Aeridineae taxonomy in light of genetic evidence and the numer of genera have been reduced significantly. A lot of cleanup work needs to be done with obsolete taxa. But basically I didn't want to be suspected of vandalism, so I reverted these changes. Conan Wolff (talk) 14:31, 10 March 2022 (UTC)
::I see. Well, a redirect seems low-risk and low-loss here (this was a minimal stub to start with), so in absence of opposition I´d stick with the WP:BOLD action. --<span style="font-family:Courier">Elmidae</span> <small>(talk · contribs ↗)</small> 14:40, 10 March 2022 (UTC)

{{reply to|Elmidae}} I know, I had erroneously created the ''Seidenfadeniella'' article to begin with. Yes, the redirect to ''Cleisostomopsis'' should stay. Conan Wolff (talk) 14:56, 10 March 2022 (UTC)

Conservation status of synonyms

I came across your question at Talk:Phalaenopsis stobartiana ↗, where you asked: "The conservation status for Phalaenopsis hainanensis, which is a synonym of Phalaenopsis stobartiana, has been categorized as critically endangered. Would it be permitable to say Phalaenopsis stobartiana is critically endangered, if the conservation status was assessed for a synonym?"

Conservation statuses for synonyms should not be applied to accepted species. There are a lot of "species" in the IUCN database with conservation statuses that are treated as synonyms by most sources aside from IUCN. These IUCN accepted "species" are often regarded (by IUCN) as endemic with a narrow distribution and thus meriting a highly threatened status. If purported narrow endemics are instead recognized as synonyms of a more broadly distributed species, the conservation status of the synonym would not apply.

''Allenbya (plant) ↗'' editing

Hi Conan Wolff, I just saw that you got around to creating an article for the nymphaceous ''Allenbya'' before I did. I did move the article to the species name as a disambiguation between it and the damselfly fossil ''Allenbya holmesae ↗'' also from the Allenby Formation. I hope you dont mind if I take the next couple days to expand it to match the other Eocene Okanagan Highlands ↗ plant articles, such as ''Uhlia ↗''. when I finish I'll nominate the article for DYK with you as co-editor.--<span style="color: #120A8F;">Kev</span><span style="color: #228B22;">min</span> § ↗ 21:34, 5 February 2024 (UTC)

:@Kevmin You are of course welcome to extend the article. I think its certainly an interesting topic. I'm currently reading into the literature on fossil Nymphaeales. Conan Wolff (talk) 21:54, 5 February 2024 (UTC)
::@Kevmin I see the article made it to the "Did you know ..." section today! Well that's great - thank you! Conan Wolff (talk) 10:25, 26 March 2024 (UTC)

:@Fritzmann2002 Thank you for the invitation. I am currently preoccupied with writing new articles on the topic of Nymphaeales taxa. If I see stub articles that interest me, I could expand them, but I will not actively search for them at the moment. Conan Wolff (talk) 08:41, 14 October 2024 (UTC)

About the page for Dimorphorchis

Hi Conan Wolff. You deleted some of the info I put in, such as regarding size and hermaphroditism. Was it inaccurate in some way? Bloopityboop (talk) 09:59, 6 December 2024 (UTC)

:@Bloopityboop Hello,<br/>I think the section description should focus on describing the plant in focus of the article. The information itself about ''Catasetum'', ''Oncidium'', and ''Grammatophyllum'' may not be wrong, but to me it seems out of place here.<br/>I see your point about details going missing (hermaphroditic flowers, leaf and stem measurements) - you are right, I should not have removed these details. It seems that went lost when I reordered the section description. I have updated the text now to include the information again and to expand on some further details. I hope you approve of this updated version.<br/>Greetings Conan Wolff (talk) 13:17, 6 December 2024 (UTC)
::Sounds good, thanks! Bloopityboop (talk) 23:07, 6 December 2024 (UTC)

Established citation style at ''Euryale ferox''

Hi, I mentioned in an edit comment a while back that it'd be appreciated if you could follow the established citation format in this article, which is to use the cite journal template. I note that you have again added a citation without formatting, risking a variety of errors which the various bots can't check. Wikipedia policy states that editors should comply with established citation styles in all articles, and should not seek to change styles without good reason and wide consensus. Please could you use <nowiki>{{cite journal |last= |first= |title= |date= |journal= |volume= |issue= |pages= |doi=}}</nowiki> (this can serve as a template to be copied, or you can use Citer or any of the various semi-automated citation tools to do the job). Many thanks! Chiswick Chap (talk) 09:30, 19 December 2024 (UTC)

:Hello @Chiswick Chap,<br/>I'll do that in future for this article. Thanks for letting me know here on my talk page, as I have overlooked your comments in the edit summary/Revision history.<br/>Greetings Conan Wolff (talk) 06:58, 20 December 2024 (UTC)
