Cladistics coding
Did i once see a way to write in a bit of code and wikipedia would do some wizzy work and produce a taxonomy tree? Something similar to the <math> function. Did i see this, or was it just an experimental thing? chris_huh 18:38, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
- I had a go at it here: User:Pengo/clad and had a rant about it here. But it's a pretty miserable attempt. The best thing is still is to make one from scratch in Inkscape or something. —Pengo talk · contribs 09:12, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
- Wouldn't this be more of a wikispecies kind of thing? --SB_Johnny|talk|books 14:20, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
Category:Fauna_of_the_United_States_by_state_and_its_subcategories up for deletion
All US "fauna by state" categories have been nominated for deletion. I think this would be of interest.
Problems with the usage of sub-categories of Category:Biota by country
I am trying to get a discussion going on the Flora of <region>/Forna of <region>/Biora of <region> caregories.

Protists and plants
What should one do with taxoboxes for groups where their classification is still not well agreed upon, such as whether or not Rhodophyta (and Glaucophyta) should be separated from the other protists and put with the plants? It's not exactly a new concept for the Rhodophyta, but the taxoboxes leave no allowance for it, and it is one of the issues people take strong stands on, whether the Rhodophyta are protists or plants. What can be done so that the taxobox reflects the level of ambiguity in the taxonomic placement? Can the boxes have a color slash, khaki above, green below? Should they reflect Wikipedia's current classification system--although I think the one article listed on the protist page does classify Rhodophyta with the plants, not with the protists? Should it be majority rules as primary and the secondary classification within the article? Can the boxes be stacked so both are represented by taxoboxes?
This issue should also be addressed with Angiosperm taxonomy--as has been brought up before. If Wikipedia is chosing APG II as the primary classification, certain groups should not be used in the taxoboxes.
Were these issues discussed and decided before?

- Good question. As far as I can remember, this topic has not come up before. Would it be a satisfactory solution to assign two values to each parameter, separated by a slash? Something like "|regnum = plantae / Protozoa"? Or "|regnum = plantae | Protozoa"? TeunSpaans 17:36, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
