Talk:Haematoxylum campechianum

Black dye
This article needs a connection to "The rise of formal black" in the Natural dye article. A potential connection could also be made the "Provisions" section of the Continental Association article where the use black cloth was restricted. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.237.150.151 (talk) 19:17, 7 October 2013 (UTC)

"In a small demonstrative experiment, if two drops, one of concentrated ammonia and one of logwood extract, are placed close enough the NH3 vapours will change to a purple shade." Is it really the ammonia vapour which changes colour, or perhaps the drop of logwood extract which undergoes this change? Dawright12 (talk) 13:47, 31 January 2015 (UTC)

Bluewood → Haematoxylum campechianum – More commonly known by other vernacular names, and best (precisely) identified by scientific name. The name bluewood is shared with other species, such as Condalia spp. (Not an uncontroversial move, and "Flora should use their common name for article names" runs counter to much of the info provided at WP:FLORA.) However, curious to hear others' thoughts. —Hyperik ⌜talk⌟ 04:15, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
 * SUPPORT MOVE to Haematoxylum campechianum. "Bluewood" is not the most common name for this flora; using the scientific name reduces confusion, in concert with hatnotes for clarification where necessary on other pages. Also the previous move to Bluewood was done with a sledgehammer, overwriting everything to "bluewood" even within quotes and links, and needs to be reverted anyway. --TheLastBrunnenG (talk) 16:13, 11 August 2020 (UTC)


 * Note I boldly moved the article back to Haematoxylum campechianum, as part of BRD. I agree with s reasonings listed here, and will note that several other of the moves made by were to made up "common names" when the species didnt actually have a common name.-- Kev  min  § 14:51, 12 August 2020 (UTC)
