Banksia montana edit
... that there were only 45 plants of the endangered shrub Banksia montana in the wild in 2008?

- Expanded enough, old enough, reliable sources, OK for me. Jan.Kamenicek (talk) 17:38, 2 May 2014 (UTC)
I was on the verge of promoting this when I checked the source for the hook, and discovered that it said there was 45 adult and 16 juvenile plants, which looks like 61 total, not 45. This is a significant difference. Please adjust the article accordingly and provide a new hook. Thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 19:15, 2 May 2014 (UTC)
- My bad! Will adjust - I had meant to write "45 adult plants" initially as it sounds more dramatic. Hence:
- ALT1... that there were only 45 adult plants of the endangered shrub Banksia montana in the wild in 2008?
ALT2... that there were only 61 plants of the endangered shrub Banksia montana in the wild in 2008?— Preceding unsigned comment added by Casliber (talk • contribs) 21:01, 2 May 2014 (UTC)- I support the second one. Jan.Kamenicek (talk) 22:23, 2 May 2014 (UTC)
- ALT3... that there were only 61 plants of the endangered shrub Banksia montana in the wild in 2004? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Casliber (talk • contribs) 02:29, 3 May 2014 (UTC)
- The problem now is that the information in the hook is different from the info in the article. It should correspond with each other. Jan.Kamenicek (talk) 08:51, 3 May 2014 (UTC)
