message: I think we should separate the categories.
Like for uses as food as one category, uses in industry, another category, and etc...
I hard a hard time recognising that this was indeed the tree of the atap-chee.

message: Another wiki editor chose to remove such categories as Flora of Cambodia from this page. I appreciate their work, but I disagree with this decision. 
They argue that Flora of Cambodia is a "daughter-category" of Flora of Tropical Asia. 3 points, when I look at the category Flora of Cambodia, it does mention that it is,a sub-category of Flora of Indo-China, which itself is a sub-category of Flora of Southeast Asia, there is no linking to Flora of Tropical Asia. Secondly, when I, as a consumer, look at Flora of Cambodia, I would like to see the flora of Cambodia, not a generalised Flora of the larger region. Lastly, and perhaps most importantly, the Flora of Tropical Asia, the Flora of Indo-China, the Flora of Southeast Asia are generalised categories. They do not acknowledge differences and localisations in the floras of individual regions. Why not just lump everything into a Flora of the World category. By all means let's have regional floras but individual nations flora is important because of regional differences, because of localised interests and as a basic building block for the larger floras.

replies: text: This species has a broad distribution throughout tropical Asia and is not confined to Cambodia or Papua New Guinea. Therefore the broad regional category is appropriate and species should not be placed in both child and parent categories. See Wikipedia:WikiProject Plants/World Geographical Scheme for Recording Plant Distributions#Using the categorization hierarchy for the category scheme in use at WikiProject Plants.

thread_title:  Tropical Asia is not individual nations 

message: The title explains it all really - are there any significant animals besides humans which eat nipa fruits/seeds? I'm quite surprised at the paucity of this info online. -Corsican Warrah (talk to me) 13:05, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  Ecology - what animals besides humans eat nipa fruits? 

message: The Nypa palm and its products are mostly unknown outside of SE Asia. For the sake of clarity and general information, I propose including a sentence in the article that states something like "The plant and its products are have no known legal (or other) classification in any territory, except for a proposal of "vulnerable" status in Singapore. Where the plant's products are used to manufacture alcohol or biofuel, of course, individual countries' laws regulate these biochemicals."
Citation for "vulnerable" status is Singapore:
[Research paper, Lee Kong Chian Natural History Museum, Singapore](https://lkcnhm.nus.edu.sg/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/app/uploads/2017/06/2010nis045-052.pdf)
If there are no objections I will add the above after 18 April 2024. venzen (talk) 04:02, 13 April 2024 (UTC)
