I now have a [http://tools.wikimedia.de/~magnus/tusc.php TUSC] account!

Hi Peter coxhead. There is a plant article naming convention request at the Help Desk. I saw your name listed at [https://toolserver.org/~daniel/WikiSense/Contributors.php?wikilang=en&wikifam=.wikipedia.org&grouped=on&page=Wikipedia:Naming_conventions_(flora) Naming_conventions_(flora) contributions] and am hoping you would post your thoughts at How long does speedy deletion usually take?.[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Help_desk&oldid=582524136#How_long_does_speedy_deletion_usually_take.3F] I asked Pmanderson on the Pmanderson talk page, but not sure if she/he will see the request. Thanks. --

Hey thank you for editing .

My friend

Please see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Lists of Salticidae species (2nd nomination). Thanks!

I'm new to all this but eager to make positive contributions. I just want to thank you for all the work you do here. You've removed several of my photos recently but I see that your reasoning is sound. Soryy to make more work for you. I'll try to be more pertinent and concise in the future.

Thanks!

at WT:TOL. You might like to take an interest. Lavateraguy (talk) 18:00, 18 May 2025 (UTC)

:{{ping|Lavateraguy}} have posted there. Peter coxhead (talk) 06:16, 19 May 2025 (UTC)

I noticed that at Oligostrix you changed the {{automatic taxobox}} template to the {{speciesbox}} template, saying that speciesbox should be used for monotypic genera. If this is the case, what about the taxonbar at the bottom, which only displays the genus? Element10101 T ~ C 20:27, 28 May 2025 (UTC)

:{{ping|Element10101}} yes, it should have the species too. The wikidata item needs to be created. Peter coxhead (talk) 21:27, 28 May 2025 (UTC)

Hi Peter. [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=1293182547&oldid=1213918583&title=Template:Botanist Your edit] to :Template:Botanist introduced a duplicate "url" error:

|url=|url=https:...

It's an easy fix, but I don't have template authority, so will you fix it? Thanks.

BTW, you can see the results at :Category:Articles using duplicate arguments in template calls. Who knew there were over 4,700 botanists in Wikipdia? Davemck (talk) 15:12, 31 May 2025 (UTC)

:{{ping|Davemck}} thanks! I actually knew I'd made this mistake, and thought I'd saved an edit that corrected it, but obviously not. I've taken the opportunity to improve the generated URL, after a bit more study of how the changed IPNI interface works.

:Yes, I too am surprised at the total number of botanist articles. Peter coxhead (talk) 20:24, 31 May 2025 (UTC)

This is misnamed (it should be Arenariinae). Unfortunately while trying to clean up Scolopacidae taxoboxes (see WT:BIRDS) I moved the Calidrinae (a synonym) template to Arenariinae, so I can't fix the misspelling with a move. Could you sort this out please? (As far as I can see I can't revert the move, or delete the misnamed template.) Lavateraguy (talk) 19:33, 21 June 2025 (UTC)

:{{ping|Lavateraguy}} Done. (Exactly why I have the privileges required to make the move and you don't isn't clear to me.) The taxobox at Turnstone now implies that Arenariinae is monogeneric, since the subfamily redirects there, so it would be usual to have {{para|parent_authority}}. A ref for this would also be good.

::Thanks.

::The modern consensus appears to be that Arenariinae consists of Arenaria, Calidris and Prosobonia. Lavateraguy (talk) 12:03, 22 June 2025 (UTC)

:::{{ping|Lavateraguy}} ah, then Template:Taxonomy/Arenariinae should link to Arenariinae not to Turnstone. Peter coxhead (talk) 17:59, 22 June 2025 (UTC)
