Lagunaria

[edit]

Hi, good observation that Lagunaria is now accepted to have two species, not just one. The policy with organisms is:

  • If there's one species in a genus, we normally have one article at the genus name, which discusses both the genus and the species.
  • If there is more than one species, we have an article at the genus name + articles at the species name.

So I re-organized Lagunaria and made Lagunaria patersonia. If you can expand either article, particularly Lagunaria patersonia, or create an article on Lagunaria queenslandica, that would be good! Peter coxhead (talk) 08:55, 20 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the help Peter! I'll keep working on Lagunaria for now but may move on to one of the individual species later. CHAM203 (talk) 06:40, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. This is just a note to let you know that I've moved the draft that you were working on to Draft:Lagunaria, from its old location at User:CHAM203/sandbox. This has been done because the Draft namespace is the preferred location for Articles for Creation submissions. Please feel free to continue to work on it there. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to ask me on my talk page. Thank you. signed, Iflaq (talk) 06:15, 15 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Your draft article, Draft:Lagunaria

[edit]

Hello, CHAM203. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Lagunaria".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. If you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz Read! Talk! 21:28, 20 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
