Around 1.9 million extant species are believed to have been described by now.
My dream is to see them all listed here!






How we will see unregistered users

[edit]

Hi!

You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki.

When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed.

Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin will still be able to access the IP. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on better tools to help.

If you have not seen it before, you can read more on Meta. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can subscribe to the weekly technical newsletter.

We have two suggested ways this identity could work. We would appreciate your feedback on which way you think would work best for you and your wiki, now and in the future. You can let us know on the talk page. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January.

Thank you. /Johan (WMF)

Plant Orphans

[edit]

Hi. I think I have dealt with most of the outstanding plant orphans. Sorry If I have missed a few. Tedious but worth it. Doing this has shown me that a number of important genera and species need updating! Please give me a heads up if you spot problems or mass orphans being created. I have not dealt with ferns etc, as there seems to be several taxonomic opinions and this group of taxa are not my expertise. Thanks Andyboorman (talk) 13:08, 15 June 2023 (UTC)Reply

Thanks, @Andyboorman: I concentrate lately in reducing the orphans to a minimum, since almost every orphan represents an error. Then, new ones will be easily spotted and corrected. Mariusm (talk) 15:18, 15 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
My theory as well. Andyboorman (talk) 19:37, 15 June 2023 (UTC)Reply

Huw Roberts

[edit]

Hi Marius, could you please restore the page Huw Roberts? For information, this author coauthored this article: {{Roberts & Bengtsson, 2023}}. By the way, thanks for creating Unresolved or Unmentioned Authorities! Korg (talk) 13:46, 17 September 2023 (UTC)Reply

Done! Mariusm (talk) 13:53, 17 September 2023 (UTC)Reply

Unresolved or Unmentioned Authorities

[edit]

Thanks for creating Unresolved or Unmentioned Authorities a while ago. I see that Alain Dupré and Simone Caldas Teves-Neves are listed on the page, even-though they are now "mentioned" in publications listed on their respective author pages. Hence I guess they should be deleted from the Unresolved… page. Or am I misunderstanding your intentions/purpose for that page? Regards, Tommy Kronkvist (talk), 14:26, 17 September 2023 (UTC).Reply

Righht, thanks. You also can freely edit this page. Mariusm (talk) 14:39, 17 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
Thanks. Dupré and Teves-Neves are now removed. Very useful page, and a good initiative by you. I'll keep on eye on it in future. –Tommy Kronkvist (talk), 09:51, 18 September 2023 (UTC).Reply
@Tommy Kronkvist: More important is to keep an eye on the Orphaned pages. Almost every one of them involves some error. I've worked through them from the letter A up to letter H. In total I already fixed more then 1000, but almost every day new ones emerge. About 1500 still remain to be dealt with. Mariusm (talk) 11:10, 18 September 2023 (UTC)Reply

Amyrald Haly

[edit]

Hi Marius, I noticed that you deleted the page Amyrald Haly. There is a link to Haly in these two pages you created: Dendrelaphis caudolineolatus, Dryocalamus gracilis. This herpetologist published the following articles:

  • Haly, A. 1887. On a remarkable sea snake from Colombo (Hydrophis taprobanica Haly, MSS.). The Taprobanian 2(4): 107–108. Online
  • Haly, A. 1888. Two new Ceylon snakes. The Taprobanian 3(3): 51. Online

Would you please restore the page? Thanks, Korg (talk) 19:22, 10 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

Done, thanks again, @Korg:! Mariusm (talk) 05:14, 11 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

I'm very glad you asked that question, as it turned out to be far more complicated than I had imagined. It turns out that there are no less than 13 ISSNs for publications of the Academy of the Lynx-eyed which might contain zoological or botanical names. See table below (not showing publications on moral philosophy & history). From 1876 there are two strands - Memorie containing the whole submitted papers; and Transunti & Rendiconti which are reports of the sittings (seduta) of the Academy. The latter strand contains precis of the papers received, which may include some or all of the new biological names therein with bried descriptions. I imagine that the Rendiconti were published more rapidly - at least to members of the Academy - and that this may meet the criteria of the ICZN for Publication. Names not mentioned the Rendiconti, or only standing there as nomina nuda, will stand as published in the Memorie. It is therefore necessary to have an eye (lynx or otherwise) to both strands as sources of names.

Oh, and ISSN 1124-5050 turned out to be a mistake - it is one of the moral philosophy & history series. I have deleted it as I cannot imagine it is relevant to this site.
