We seem to have edit conflicted
Hi, sorry I think we edit conflicted on Mildred Mottahedeh. A lot of the stuff is overlapping-- would you mind going through in case something was lost in the conflict? Sorry about that. Cheers, Eddie891 Talk Work 21:27, 13 December 2020 (UTC)
- @Eddie891: You added way more stuff than me anyways, so it's fine. Though it looks like we're both trying to add things to the article. :P SilverserenC 21:39, 13 December 2020 (UTC)

About Rosemary Margaret Smith
Sounds great. Thank you for your work on the article! You are truly an exemplary Wikipedian!!! Thriley (talk) 02:41, 4 January 2021 (UTC)
Amomum borneense vs. Amomum borneensi
I've been filling out the species Rosemary Margaret Smith named. It appears that Amomum borneensi might be incorrect. I can't find much sourcing when I search for it, other than the one journal article. There is plenty of information on Amomum borneense, which she did name. Do you think the journal made a mistake or are there actually two species? Best, Thriley (talk) 03:45, 4 January 2021 (UTC)
- @Thriley: I would go with the journal having a misspelling. It happens. If there's a bunch more available evidence for borneense, then that's likely correct. SilverserenC 06:55, 4 January 2021 (UTC)

Native Plants Journal
Hey Silver! I hate to interrupt your work, but I have run into an issue. I saw that you cited Native Plants Journal in the Deno article, so I created a quick stub for it. It was nominated for deletion today. I myself have come across the journal in the past. It is widely held by libraries and actively read by those in plant-related fields. Please take a look. Maybe you'll feel differently, but I think it is a definite KEEP. Best, Thriley (talk) 20:09, 13 February 2021 (UTC)
