Plant article naming convention

Hi Peter coxhead. There is a plant article naming convention request at the Help Desk. I saw your name listed at Naming_conventions_(flora) contributions and am hoping you would post your thoughts at How long does speedy deletion usually take?.[1] I asked Pmanderson on the Pmanderson talk page, but not sure if she/he will see the request. Thanks. --

discussion related to root of taxobox system

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

@Lavateraguy: have posted there. Peter coxhead (talk) 06:16, 19 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Taxonbar for monotypic taxa

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)[reply]

@Element10101: yes, it should have the species too. The wikidata item needs to be created. Peter coxhead (talk) 21:27, 28 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Error in Template:Botanist

Hi Peter. 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)[reply]

@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)[reply]
