Notice

The article Monsanto's Law has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Doesn't appear to be used in notable sources and is more of a WP:NEOLOGISM.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Reply: I saw a request for Monsanto's Law on the list of items for inclusion on the plant portal. It is the same as Moore's Law, but concerns biotechnology. That's all it is. It has been used to describe other things, which I tried to touch on, but didn't want to include much because those are incorrect uses. No worries if you take it down.

Capsicum annuum var. conoides[edit]

Hi, thanks for writing this article! Quick question–is this the same thing as the facing heaven pepper, or is it something different? Blythwood (talk) 14:55, 25 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Sure. Np. The facing heaven pepper is a variety of conoides. 'var conoides' after C. Annuum is like a subspecies. The 'Facing heaven' pepper is a variety popular in China like 'Double delight' is a variety of roses popular in North America.

  • Great, that's fine. I've marked it as reviewed. However, I think it could really benefit from having a link to the facing heaven pepper article and vice versa and having articles that link to it (at the moment nothing does). And possibly being renamed so Mill/Irish is in the article name, and some explanation of classification in the article text? Sorry for the concern–article organisation on biology topics on Wikipedia has often been complicated when you have two articles on nearly-but-not-quite the same thing written by different people at different times and they don't connect to one another. Blythwood (talk) 15:13, 25 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I saw the facing heaven page, and I was going to expand/ link them more earlier, but one of my dogs passed away as I was working on it. I'll work on it in the next week. I should have left it in the sandbox, but my head isn't exactly on straight at the moment. Thanks for reviewing it.
