Talk:Betula papyrifera

message: I have removed a question posed in the article, but wish to answer it here.  The question was why they saw paper birch in Tennessee.  It exists in TN naturally(although exceedingly rare, rated as 'critically imperiled' for TN), or it could be there horticulturally.  Humans tend to plant pretty trees well outside their native ranges.  So, either said Wikipedian saw a rare naturally-occurring paper birch in TN, or it was horticultural planting.

message: We looked this over in class.  It is our consensus that this is barely a start-class article.  First, it is poorly written, with incomplete sentences, ambiguous phrases, grammatical errors, punctuation faults, typos (of should be or) how do we go on.  Citations are unclear, and the article is mostly uncited.  This could improved by better integrating the massive quotation, explaining what that big tree reference means, better lead, expand the culture section and the history section, better integrated pictures that go with the description, so we can see it and read it. Etc Etc Etc.    Auntieruth55 (talk) 14:23, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

message: The World Checklist of Selected Plant Families now considers Betula kenaica to be a synonym of B. papyrifera. Think it should be merged? Benny White (talk) 04:25, 3 September 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: What authority are we preferring? B. cordifolia is also listed as a subspecies by some authors (USDA), should that be merged too?Wasp32 (talk) 14:51, 5 July 2016 (UTC)

message: Can somebody else clarify this.  I listed some of the subspecies which seem to exist and added some clarification that like 3 are separate species. I don't know enough about this taxonomy to take a position myself.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wasp32 (talk • contribs) 18:10, 5 July 2016 (UTC)

message: This point regarding vandalism of bark is uncited, but also is it really an element of culture particularly relevant to B. papyrifera? EntUrsprache (talk) 21:08, 5 February 2023 (UTC)
