Talk:Iridaceae

message: Isn't Hypoxis now in Hypoxidaceae?  --N. Harris NaySay
:Yes it is. But the family Hypoxidaceae hasn't been treated yet in Wikipedia. Anyway, I'll remove Hypoxis from Iridaceae. JoJan 09:23, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

message: How about moving Subfamilies and Genera to the end of the article, so that running, readable text comes before the lists? --Ettrig (talk) 06:30, 1 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Hi Ettrig: thank you for taking your time for reading and commenting the article. The order of the sections follows the standard of the wikiproject. I will consult about your suggestion. Thanks again. --EnCASF (talk) 21:33, 1 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Personally, I would not be opposed to moving the section to a separate list of Iridaceae genera, but mileage may vary. If it included less details (personally, I'm not 100% convinced about putting the species number and range information), an option to consider would be to put it on two or three columns. However, I certainly do not like the idea of relegating the list elsewhere only to avoid "breaking the article" with a list. Circeus (talk) 23:47, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

text: My opinion is that the number of species and species range give important information about the diversity of the family and how this diversity is distributed, specially when many of the genera don't have their own page. With respect to moving the list to another page, when I consulted this issue I was informed that when the taxon has a great number of subtaxa (said 100) it is the norm, but I think that it is not the case. --EnCASF (talk) 01:16, 2 June 2009 (UTC)

message: Unfortunately, this article was heavily edited by EnCASF who has displayed a history of copy-pasting content into articles and who seems to have done so here.
For instance, he added the following text:
This is what we find in the source -  - a copyrighted book:
If you compare, you will see that - aside from a brief passage towards the middle - this differs from the source in superficial detail only. It is a blatant infringement of Wikipedia:Copyrights.
This is one randomly sampled paragraph from the content EnCASF added to this article. His history shows copying from multiple sources.
The article has had to be blanked because of this. All content added by this user needs to be rewritten or removed or the article restored to this version. (The Argentinian IP whose edits immediately precede EnCASF is likely EnCASF prior to log in.) 
I'm extremely sorry for this complication and recognize that this is an enormous setback to the article and likely to be a great disappointed to other editors who have worked on the content that EnCASF pasted in. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 12:30, 20 September 2013 (UTC)
thread_title: Copyright problems

message: Hello all! 
This article has been chosen as this fortnight's effort for WP:Discord's #team-b-vital channel, a collaborative effort to bring Vital articles up to a B class if possible, similar to WP:Articles for Improvement. This effort will run for up to a fortnight, ending early if the article is felt to be at B-class or impossible to further improve. Articles are chosen by a quick vote among interested chatters, with the goal of working together on interesting Vital articles that need improving.
Thank you! Remagoxer (talk) 21:08, 22 June 2023 (UTC)
