Some removed statements lacked citation edit

I have removed the following statements: "Dianella is not well understood taxonomically and is in much need of revision." and "Not all taxonomists recognize the genus. In one paper on the classification of Xanthorrhoeaceae, Dianella and six other genera were subsumed in the genus Phormium". The first statement seems to be a POV, no citation is given for it. No citation was given for the second either, which appears to be an erroneous reference to the family Phormiaceae which contained Dianella and 6 other genera, as shown here: Watson, L., and Dallwitz, M.J. 1992 onwards. The families of flowering plants: descriptions, illustrations, identification, and information retrieval.

I agree. It looks as if the species within the genus may be changed and expanded (based on an as yet unpublished PhD thesis – see the abstract), but there seems no dispute over the genus itself. Peter coxhead (talk) 11:19, 8 March 2018 (UTC)Reply
