Messy links edit

Several of the links I checked in the article are links to butterflies, lungfish and other things which are not red-algae! Ellin Beltz (talk) 16:48, 27 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

Good point. Wikipedia doesn't have much discussion (although there seems to be informal consensus) about how to handle cases where a genus name may be used in both the plant and animal kingdoms. I've started discussion here: Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Tree of Life#Inter-kingdom homonyms. With some formal guidelines for disambiguating these cases, I'd be more comfortable proceeding.Plantdrew (talk) 21:05, 28 April 2013 (UTC)Reply
