thanks edit

Hey, thanks for fixing up any Platanthera edits I make, much faster than I could do myself! I do have a question, just in case I want to attempt it myself at some point, how do you create pages like Platanthera brevifolia? Just copy/paste from another species first and then fill in data from wikispecies, or is there an easier way?

...hey, that's exactly the way I use it. Orchi (talk) 16:01, 14 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
Thanks! One other question, do you know why on Category:Platanthera brevifolia the "Wikidata Infobox" does not work? I read its documentation and added a "Commons category" item on the wikidata page linking back to it, but it still doesn't find it - I assume it just may take a day or two to update? Allefant (talk) 16:51, 14 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
Unfortunately, I'm not a good advisor when it comes to Wikidata issues. Let's wait a few days, if the problem will be solved. Orchi (talk) 18:17, 14 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

Platanthera limosa edit

I had added a drawing of it to the Platanthera gallery a few days ago and finally found a photo for it but also realized KEW moved it from Platanthera to Coenoemersa in the meantime - not sure if it's better to just remove it again, or maybe leave it up until wikidata and so on catch up to the new Coenoemersa name... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Allefant (talk • contribs) 03:33, 9 February 2022 (UTC)Reply

Calochortus purpureus edit

Hi Orchi, when you recategorized File:Calochortus purpureus.jpg‎ to "unidentified Calochortus", was it because you disagreed with the original identification given? If so, were there any specific diagnostic features that are present (or absent) that led you to doubt the identification? 'Cheers, Loopy30 (talk) 01:52, 23 February 2022 (UTC)Reply

@Loopy30:
Hello Loopy30,
as your picture was only placed in the genus Calochortus and a category or an article about Calochortus purpureus did not exist, I decided to place the picture in the Category:Unidentified for identification.
I can't identify the picture. Maybe you can create a new category. Best regards Orchi (talk) 21:24, 23 February 2022 (UTC)Reply
OK, thanks for the reply. However, as the plant in the image was already identified by four users on iNaturalist and labelled as such on WikiCommons, it was not inaccurate to place the image in the genus level category. It is counter-productive to now categorize it as "unidentified" instead. There are many species images placed in a genus level category, and this should only be changed if a apecies level category is created in the future.

Luisia edit

@Orchi: Hallo! Ich habe versucht etwas Ordnung reinzubringen. Die Seite zu zeylanica müsstest du neu machen, da es kein Synonym zu tristis ist. Die alten Abbildungen (auch neuere wie man sieht) zeigen oft eine andere Art. Bei der Abbildung von Smith (Orchideen von Java) bin ich mir noch nicht sicher was es ist. Da muss ich erst in die Literatur schauen. GrußBadlydrawnboy22 (talk) 18:41, 23 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

Senecio radiolatus edit

Hi Orchi, when you recategorized File:Senecio radiolatus.jpg‎ to "unidentified Senecio", was it because you disagreed with the original identification given? If so, were there any specific diagnostic features that are present (or absent) that led you to doubt the identification that I can pass on to the original identifiers? 'Cheers, Loopy30 (talk) 03:32, 16 August 2022 (UTC)Reply

@Loopy30:
Hi Loopy30,
since the picture was not yet assigned to a species category,
I used it to determine the previously undetermined images.
Can you the plant identify as Senecio radiolatus?
Unfortunately I can not. Best greetings. Orchi (talk) 20:30, 16 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
Hi Orchi, two respected, experienced botanists with local regional expertise (Peter de Lange and Mark Smale) have both agreed on the identification of this image down to species level (as Senecio radiolatus). Therefore, it is not "unidentified" as your new category would sugggest. As this image has been positively identified to belong to a species in this genus, I will now revert your category change to reflect this identification unless you have any further information to the contrary.

Vanda stangeana edit

@Orchi: Hallo Orchi, deine Bilder zeigen wohl eher motesiana (002) und die 001 könnte eine Hybride sein. Das andere Bild von Flickr wird wohl auch motesiana sein. Vanda petersiana (demnächst wohl hennisiana) ist dieser sehr nahe. Vanda stangeana ist aber ein Synonym für bicolor, ist bei der WCSP noch nicht drin. Gruß Badlydrawnboy22 (talk) 19:39, 10 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

@Badlydrawnboy22: Hallo Badlydrawnboy22,
....die Bilder stammen von eingescannten Dias aus den 1970/1980 Jahren. Vanda motesiana ist 2009 neu beschrieben. Wenn Du die Bilder neu bestimmst, sollten sie umbenannt werden. Grüße. Orchi (talk) 19:53, 10 September 2022 (UTC)Reply
@Orchi: Hallo Orchi,
Ich habe jetzt erstmal einen Redirect gesetzt und die Seite nicht weiter verändert. Wie gesagt, könnte eines von deinen Bildern auch eine Hybride zeigen (liouvillei x ??) oder doch motesiana/petersiana? Ich kann mich da nicht festlegen. Natürlich sind solche älteren Aufnahmen viel wert, da es früher noch nicht so viele Hybriden gab, oder? Die 002 ist wohl am ehesten eine motesiana. Das könntest du umbenennen.

spiranthes sheviakii pictures edit

Hi, I uploaded a picture of Spiranthes cernua two years ago, and it was the correct id then, but in the meantime M. Hough described a new species called Spiranthes sheviakii (page 22-56 in https://www.nativeorchidconference.org/_files/ugd/8170e0_a9c00f7ab12e428f92a8a4009192b7c7.pdf). Just like with the 2016 and 2017 and so on cernua splits by M. C. Pace this means pictures labelled cernua can be something new now. (There is actually a lot of incurva and arcisepala pictures still labelled cernua, but that's a separate issue.) For my pictures in question I asked M. Hough about them and he confirmed them to be S. sheviakii, kinda obvious since they grew high up on a dry ridge and not in a wetland. I changed their description (and category to just Spiranthes for now until IPNI and wikidata and so on pick up the new species), but wondering if I should also request a rename of the files, or just leave them?

Hello Allefant,
Thanks for your infos. I renamed your three images of Spiranthes cernua as Spiranthes sheviakii and placed them in Wikispecies and Commons under the categories Species new to science 2020 and Spiranthes new to science until Spiranthes sheviakii is accepted by KEW, MBG, IPNI etc. as valid species.

Hallo Orchi, meiner Ansicht nach zeigt das Bild links oben Campanula cochleariifolia, nicht Campanula scheuchzeri. Campanula scheuchzeri hat keine gestielten Stängelblätter und normalerweise auch kaum Grundblätter während der Blütezeit. Die rundlichen Blätter unten am Stängel passen auch gar nicht zu Campanula scheuchzeri, die fast halbkugeligen Blüten sehr gut zu Campanula cochleariifolia.

How to ask for speedy-delete of an empty category edit

When you want to ask for speedy-delete of an empty category, best practice is to mark it with {{SD|C2}} if it would be OK to re-create it in the future, given that appropriate content becomes available or {{SD|C1}} if it is an inappropriate category name that should not be reused. In particular, this is better practice than using {{Empty}} (which is actually something else entirely), as you did at Category:Orchid uploads by vijayanrajapuram}}.
