Disambiguation link notification for January 3[edit]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Great Basin Province, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Western Cordillera. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Global account[edit]

Hi Peter! As a Steward I'm involved in the upcoming unification of all accounts organized by the Wikimedia Foundation (see m:Single User Login finalisation announcement). By looking at your account, I realized that you don't have a global account yet. In order to secure your name, I recommend you to create such account on your own by submitting your password on Special:MergeAccount and unifying your local accounts. If you have any problems with doing that or further questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Cheers, —DerHexer (Talk) 21:04, 18 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for Monotropoideae[edit]

On 20 January 2015, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Monotropoideae, which you recently created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that the non-photosynthetic plants of the subfamily Monotropoideae (pictured) depend on both mycorrhizal fungi for food and bumblebees for pollination? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Monotropoideae. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, live views, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Russulaceae FAC: Image issue[edit]

Hi! A question came up in the Russulaceae FAC review process, regarding the copyright of this Monotropa roots image you uploaded to Commons - can you help? Tylototriton (talk) 18:28, 16 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I've responded. That reminds me, though, that I needed to take some micrographs of some of the micromorphological features of that group. Will try to get around to that and uploaded it this week. Peter G Werner (talk) 20:40, 17 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Great Basin Province[edit]

Hi Peter, don't know if you have it watchlisted or not, but there's some discussion in the thread you opened back in January in the Great Basin Province talk page. Lynn (SLW) (talk) 12:24, 13 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Lepiotaceae[edit]

You appear to have redirected/deleted/other the article: Lepiotaceae (redirect to Agaricaceae). If this is correct can you tell me how to view the original article, the one that existed prior to redirect? Thanks LookingGlass (talk) 14:34, 4 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

No such article existed. I created the page entirely as a redirect. If you're looking for an earlier version of an article that's been merged into another, it's simply a matter of going into the revision history under the original title, in the case of the article, here: [1] If you don't see an earlier history, that means the page itself was created as a redirect.

(As you can see from the very earliest version of the Wiki article Lepiota from 2004: [2], these species have been treated as being in the Agaricaceae as long as we've had articles on the topic on Wikipedia.)

It has been known for over a decade that the Agaricales Families Agaricaceae and Lepiotaceae are the same, with the older concept of "Agaricaceae" being nested within the larger group of white-spored Lepiota, Macrolepiota, and allies. (The same is true for the entire Lycoperdaceae.) Since "Agaricaceae" is the older name, it takes priority.

The Agaricaceae article itself, like many fungal taxon articles here on Wikipedia, is in great need of expansion, and more detail of the taxonomic history could be discussed. Peter G Werner (talk) 22:52, 4 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

List of WP:MICRO active members[edit]

Hi, I noticed you are a member of WikiProject Microbiology but that you haven't edited a page on the project in the last two weeks. I'm making a list of the active members (in progress, see User:Icebob99/sandbox) and I'd like to know if you would like to be noted as active on it. Thanks, Icebob99 (talk) 02:37, 18 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
