Talk:Thuja plicata

message: ---Wood Uses---
The Wood of Western Redcedar is used extensively in decks and fences as a premium product (the cheaper alternitives being spruce, pine or fir (SPF) or pressure treated. The wood of Thuja Plicata is quite resistant to rot and insect infestaion, which makes it a very valuable softwood.  This should be mentioned somewhwre in the article.
---Removal---
I removed the following as I felt it was out of place on this page.  Perhaps it would fit in a page about Scotchbroom:
Scotchbroom also works very well, its bark can easily be striped and is very strong.You can use 3 long strips of it and interweive them, then soak them in water for a long time so the fibers wash out.This makes the rope more durable and last longer.

message: Wondering which section of article should include bit about this species being effected by climate change. cbc.ca article says "tree could vanish for good in spots ..." and "Zeglen blames climate change that is expected to bring longer dry spells ...". --EarthFurst (talk) 08:32, 20 June 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: This topic should be addressed in the Pathology section. In the Southern Gulf Islands and San Juan Islands many redcedars are dying from the top down. This is a consequence of climate change and also of decreasing moisture in land as it is developed by humans. Regards, ... PeterEasthope (talk) 22:47, 12 May 2020 (UTC)

message: Hello  This would be good if it worked. Did you remove it because it doesn't work? I don't know how to fix it. Invasive Spices (talk) 16:09, 5 February 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: It was working correctly, but I decided to remove it since it links to the "management considerations" section. The source is cited several times within the article, and many of the citations reference statements that aren't within the that section. — SamX [talk • contribs] 18:23, 5 February 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: I see. The first 3 are but the last 2 are not. I have used  to give that information. I hope you will approve. Invasive Spices (talk) 18:57, 5 February 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Seems fair enough. I've moved the FEIS reference from a ref tag to the Works cited section, since it was being cited several times within the article and (for me at least) the  section titles were breaking up the flow of the text and making it a bit more difficult to read. I used  instead and changed the section title cases per MOS:ALLCAPS. I really don't think mentioning the section titles is necessary since the FEIS report is a pretty small document and it's not that hard to  through it, but I can't say I care much either way. — SamX [talk • contribs] 04:33, 6 February 2023 (UTC)

This site does not use different URLs for it's various search functions, but there are several taller ones on here too:
https://bigtrees.forestry.ubc.ca/bc-bigtree-registry/conifers/ 
I think this should be changed, but I don't think there's any confirmation of what the actual tallest is.
