459 references for a 300 word article? Something is out of balance here! -- Michael Tinkler, sticking his toe back in wikipedia after a year off

The reasons I added this rather long reference list to the main Phelsuma article are:

  1. that this main Phelsuma page links to many articles on Phelsuma species. In many of the listed references, more than one species is described, so I would have to duplicate those references many times (for each described species), which seems a waste of disk space. I would rather link each reference (record) to the different articles (other records), like a relational database, but alas wikipedia doesn't allow for this.
  2. If one wants to read more about this genus, this list is a starting point.

We could of course create a new article "Phelsuma literature".
