Talk:Acidaminococcaceae

Comment[edit]

Hi. I think this page should be deleted in order to attached to the most current phylogenetic classification of the genera included in the Acidamonicoccaceae familiy. This family no longer exists. Instead, Veillonellaceae groups these genera, among others previously omitted. Petercoccusfuriosus (talk) 01:02, 15 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That's not a reason to delete the article. Rather, the article should be amended to specify that the taxon is deprecated. I'd do it myself if I understood the situation better. DS (talk) 15:20, 19 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

== Merging pages Acidaminococcaceae and Veillonellaceae to Negativicutes ==

I decided to merge the wikipages Acidamniococcaceae and Veillonellaceae because its desciption was emended and accepted in 2010 by the International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology (IJSEM) and listed in the List of Prokaryotic names with Standing in Nomenclature (LPSN) to that of Class Negativicutes, Order Selenomonadales and families Veillonellaceae and Acidaminococcaceae.

Also the wikipage Veillonellaceae contains all the genera of the newly emended class Negativicutes containing both families Veillonellaceae and Acidaminococcaceae. Therefore I reasoned that the genera circumscription of the wikipage Veillonellaceae is the exactly the same as that of the wikipage Negativicutes, but the wikipage Negativicutes has more references and a detailed 16S rRNA-based LTP phylogeny.

Both wikipages Acidamniococcaceae and Veillonellaceae has the same one reference.

So why not make the wikipage Negativicutes the destination page for both?
