Talk:Salamandridae

Requested move
True Salamander → Salamandridae – Not only is it improperly capitalised (since it refers to a higher taxon), but the family includes newts as well as the true salamanders (indeed, more newts than salamanders). There is no common name for this taxon, which should therefore be at the scientific name. I'm only prevented from doing it myself by the two-line edit history at Salamandridae. --Stemonitis 13:20, 4 May 2006 (UTC)

This is a horrible page
The entire page it taken up by a list and has almost no data at all on the subject. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.184.241.144 (talk) 20:11, 23 November 2007 (UTC)

Capitalization
I started lowercasing species names per WT:CAPS; someone asked me to put a note here that I'm doing it, so here it is. ErikHaugen (talk &#124; contribs) 23:59, 20 June 2012 (UTC)

Taxobox
shouldn't Caudata be the clade not the order which appears to be Urodela? Bodrugan (talk) 15:08, 20 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Depends on the source. Amphibian Species of the World uses Caudata as the order, as do ITIS. In any case, there is currently a discussion about what source(s) we should use in this project, so any change at this level should better wait until some conclusion is reached.

Molge
Do taxonomic articles have a standard way of addressing former genera? For example, Molge meridionalis redirects to Notophthalmus meridionalis, yet there doesn't seem to be anything else in Wikipedia mentioning the (apparently) former genus Molge, if someone tried to look that up. I'm sure there are other examples, but I happened to check Molge because of its notable appearance in a P. G. Wodehouse novel. RCTodd (talk) 16:38, 26 June 2017 (UTC)
 * It is possible to mention, or, better yet, discuss why one taxon was subsumed/synonymized into another taxon if we can find the appropriate source that discusses that situation. Scholar.google and books.google are two good places to start.--Mr Fink (talk) 17:16, 26 June 2017 (UTC)
