if you are able to enable Rater - you might find a way to work on article talk pages - the evaluation that Rater offers has its limitations, but nevertheless it is a very useful guide.

give it a go! it can be very helpful. JarrahTree 10:12, 13 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Junglenut,

Thanks very much for your painstaking work updating references on plant articles. Much appreciated. Gderrin (talk) 01:52, 30 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Cheers. I'm on holidays ATM so I have had a lot of time for it. Will be back at work next week and the pace will slow down, but the list is now half the size it used to be :) −  Junglenut | talk  03:05, 30 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Brilliant! BTW, check out what I've done here. If you agree with the method, it might save you some work? Gderrin (talk) 03:57, 30 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, I was trying to work out how to do that! Now I know ;) −  Junglenut | talk  04:01, 30 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Misspellings?

Hello Junglenut,

More thanks from me.

I'm curious about the notes you've added to the articles Dendrobium toressae and Bulbophyllum gracillimum. For D. toressae I think you meant "extra 'r'" (not extra 's') - I changed that to extra 'r'.

I'm confused about the note on B. gracillimum. The ATROK reference is about Cirrhopetalum gracillimum, a synonym of Bulbophyllum gracillimum. Seems to me that the spelling is correct. What do you mean about "(an extra "i")"?

I agree with you about the note you've added to Bulbophyllum lilianae ATROK has misspelled Adelopetalum lilianae. Something's gone wrong with the "references" section though. Gderrin (talk) 06:51, 9 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Ah thanks for heads up on that, the ref list is fixed now.
The spelling mistakes occur on the ATROK website, not on Wikipedia, and it includes the wrong spelling in the URLs for the factsheets that have been cited in the references. I've been in touch with Frank Zich who heads up the keys projects for rainforest plants (in general) and rainforest orchids, and hopefully they will be corrected on ATROK, at which time the URLs in the references will need to be updated as well. I hope that explains it properly? —  Junglenut | talk  07:37, 9 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Oh and thanks for fixing my spelling! :-D —  Junglenut | talk  07:40, 9 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Gderrin: My mind is a soggy mess at the moment. I've just realised that I didn't answer your question re Cirrhopetalum gracillimum. On ATROK it is spelled gracilliimum, with a double "i" after the double"l". —  Junglenut | talk  07:54, 9 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
No drama - but I think I must be cross-eyed because I don't see Cirrhopetalum gracilliimum anywhere. And no, I haven't tucked into the red ...not yet anyway. Gderrin (talk) 08:30, 9 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The mistake is in the URL, i.e. the address of the page, and also in the full listing of all species, and that's why the reference will have to be updated because it will become a dead link. The title on the actual factsheet spells it correctly ;) —  Junglenut | talk  08:40, 9 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Aha - I see! Thanks as always. Gderrin (talk) 09:03, 9 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
