List of botanists by author abbreviation
Good to see new entries in this list. Just a small point: the Manual of Style requires en-dashes not hyphens. If you're not sure how to produce them, just copy and edit the line above. (I don't care either way myself, but being consistent allows some automated processing of the list, e.g. checking it for correct alphabetic order.)

 * Excellent. Thanks! I've only been editing for a couple of days, so I'm still swimming in the formats, etc. STL Dilettante (talk) 14:11, 17 September 2012 (UTC)


 * If I can help, just leave a note on my talk page. Peter coxhead (talk) 11:26, 18 September 2012 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for November 14
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Ihsan Ali Al-Shehbaz, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Flora of China (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 12:20, 14 November 2012 (UTC)

Authority control
Hello STL, there are two different forms of GNDs. If you add an "undifferentiated" on, like in Storm Constantine, you don't add a person only a name (it's a temporary number, see de:Hilfe:GND). The German de:template:Normdaten has for this case a parameter called "GNDName". Cheers --Kolja21 (talk) 13:59, 14 November 2012 (UTC)


 * I know, I know. I started catching myself doing that more recently. Thanks for fixing it! STL Dilettante (talk) 14:12, 14 November 2012 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Michael Skinner (percussionist)


The article Michael Skinner (percussionist) has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * Non-notable musician. Neither ref is independent.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

 * Do what thou wilt. I only added this stub because there were articles that linked to it. STL Dilettante (talk) 03:00, 11 December 2012 (UTC)

Phylloxera
It does not seem that the pages for Phylloxera, Jules Émile Planchon, Charles Valentine Riley, and George Engelmann match up that well. They don't even agree on what species was used as the root stock. DaronDierkes (talk) 19:00, 24 May 2013 (UTC)
