Thanks for the beer![edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia! There are a variety of ways to break up sections to highlight the differences. A simple blank line (which is what's now on Neofinetia) will put in a gap between the two sections. I've also added a few items to my sandbox showing other types of tables that will split up the sections. Feel free to copy the code from my sandbox and play around in your sandbox with it. :) -Niceguyedc Go Huskies! 10:35, 18 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

WikiProject Plants Collaboration of the month[edit]

I'm attempting to revive the Plant article COTM, and since you're a member of WikiProject Plants, you're being notified about this hopeful revival. Please feel free to propose articles for collaboration, and thanks for your consideration! Northamerica1000(talk) 11:09, 16 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Italicization[edit]

Unfortunately the International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants is clear that "connecting terms", like "subsp." or "var.", should not be italicized. So instead of ''[[Hoya australis ssp. oramicola]]'' you need to use [[Hoya australis ssp. oramicola|''Hoya australis'' ssp. ''oramicola'']], which is rather tedious. :-( Peter coxhead (talk) 08:20, 7 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Yes indeed it is. That would make a great automated bot function though... Do you know anybody who writes them here? (Certainly not me ;) Cypella (talk) 10:00, 23 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Dave Spector[edit]

Get your scalpel out and go-to-town on that! I'd added a memo on the talk page too, and have been checking in occasionally since then (April?)... doesn't seem to have been any activity related to revising that article at all until you came along (and yet the article is still averaging around 40 hits per day). Do your worst, friend! Japanglish (talk) 02:35, 25 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I guess our Talk page notes, followed by your sudden action, lit a fire under someone's axx and Spector's page has since been tended to and reborn! Much better than before; someone must've already been working on it because that was FAST! I'll chime in on the Mottainai article if I can get to it before a decision is made; no time at the immediate moment. There are so many English wikipedia articles covering Japanese non-attractions or paying far too much lip-service to undeserving subjects, and I'm all about putting them in their place; I'm a better critic than writer anyway and critics are a very necessary part of the wiki process (all about being fair where fairness is due though). Do let me know if I can be of help with anything else! Japanglish (talk) 10:27, 27 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
