message: Hey,
I think thats most people searching for Moringa are looking for specifically for Moringa Oleifera and should be given the link at the top of the page. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moringa_oleifera
thanks for who ever can do this.

message: There already is an article on Moringo oleifera, so I think the information on that species here is unnecessary, and should probably be removed. Fences and windows (talk) 13:32, 13 December 2008 (UTC)

message: Doesn't most of this article sound like a sales pitch? It seems to lack any real scientific information, the language sounds like it's selling something, and there are not enough solid references. This doesn't feel like a Wikipedia article, it feels like it was written by a magazine or something. Perhaps the article should be expanded and filled with much more detail?

replies: text: Moringa →  – Besides referring to the genus, "moringa" is also the common name of one of the species, Moringa oleifera, which itself is probably more notable on account of its well established culinary uses. That species gets 3x more views than the genus, and it seems to be the intended target behind the majority of the incoming links to "Moringa" . Still, I wouldn't call it a primary topic, and my preference is for the base title to be occupied by a dab page. – Uanfala (talk) 18:21, 7 November 2022 (UTC)

text: As one who leans toward taxonomy being primary, I thought I would oppose. However, after taking a quick look at the early history of both the Moringa and Moringa oleifera articles, I have found that the article  Moringa was created 14 May 2004 to represent the cultivated plant, without mentioning the species Moringa oleifera. Nine months later, 27 January 2005, it was changed to represent the genus and has since. The species article was created 20 December 2005, and its only common name given then was "moringa". The common name seems to be the primary usage. – Elizabeth (Eewilson) (tag or ping me) (talk) 19:22, 1 December 2022 (UTC)
