Mimallonoidea in the infobox[edit]

@Edibobb: I changed the title of this article from Mimallonoidea to Mimallonidae based on WP:MONOTYPICFAUNA. Right now, this article shows the superfamily in the infobox as a circular redirect back to this page and it is not in bold. It should be bold and unlinked. I'm not sure how to fix that. Do you have any ideas? Thanks,  SchreiberBike | ⌨  03:46, 29 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I'll take a look at it. I think I've seen that before... Bob Webster (talk) 03:59, 29 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Got it. You set the link in the superfamily template (taxonomy:template/Mimallonoidea) to the family page: "| link=Mimallonidae|Mimallonoidea". Then the Automatic taxobox is smart enough not to link to itself in Mimallonidae.
Dandy! I hope I can remember that trick if it comes up again. Thank you.  SchreiberBike | ⌨  05:07, 29 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

A lot of new content on Mimallonidae page[edit]

Hi everyone, I just wanted to let you know that I will be adding a lot of new/additional information to this page. I see that changes were recently made to reflect the monotypic taxon situation of Mimallonoidea/Mimallonidae. I definitely concur that this needed to happen, so thanks for taking the steps to do so. I thought I'd chime in here so that if anyone comes back to this page as per the above edits it doesn't come as too much of a surprise that so much changed!Rstlaurent (talk) 22:14, 31 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Cite error[edit]

I am seeing a couple cite errors at the bottom of the page after I added substantial text/references. Bugguide is only given on the "Extant Lepidoptera families" section in the external links section, so I am not sure how this should be corrected. I am also not sure what "StLaurent2019" refers to in this case. I would appreciate help with the below two errors. Thanks! Cite error: A list-defined reference named "bugguide" is not used in the content (see the help page). Cite error: A list-defined reference named "StLaurent2019" is not used in the content (see the help page). Rstlaurent (talk) 22:41, 31 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Both of those references were defined but never used and that's what generated the errors. I removed them and they are gone. Keep up the good work.  SchreiberBike | ⌨  00:36, 1 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
