User talk:Abductive/missing genera from POWO

I want to thank you for creating this comprehensive list. It must've taken a while! NinjaWeeb (talk) 21:52, 22 December 2020 (UTC)

Removals
Abductive, is it alright if we remove articles that have been created or would you prefer to keep the list in its entirety? Fritzmann2002 T, c, s, t 17:08, 5 January 2021 (UTC)
 * I'll make a "completed" section, and move the bluelinks to it, give me a few hours...   Abductive  (reasoning) 18:21, 5 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Hey that looks great; it makes me chuckle to think that we are not even 10% of the way through this massive list, but on the other hand it is cool to see several hundred new bluelinks. Fritzmann2002 T, c, s, t 15:32, 6 January 2021 (UTC)

Thanks for putting this list together. I stumbled across it when I checked 'what links here' for a new article. Curious if you know offhand how fast POWO is adding new genera relative to wikipedia editors making new articles for them – in other words, are we likely to catch up? Don't go to any trouble to find out, but I was wondering if you knew offhand.

The other thing I'm finding is that POWO has revived genera and/or species that Wikipedia still treats as synonyms. Since they have blue links it will look like they have articles, but they may only be redirects. The way I have been finding them is updating lists of accepted genera by family using POWO, and then checking every blue link to make sure it has an up-to-date article. I wondered if there was a way to do it en masse. Tom Radulovich (talk) 23:13, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
