Thanks for the correction you posted on my talk page. I will go back and ensure I've corrected anything I've edited. Sorry about the mistake. I should have ensured my notes were in two separate files rather than researching both women at once.

Drosera burmannii edit

Hi! Thanks for providing more details on the Paul Hermann description at Drosera burmannii (diff). What source are you using that includes this information? I didn't dig very deep but didn't find a good overview of the publication history for this species when I wrote that short paragraph a while ago. I also looked through Musaeum Zeylanicum after your first edit - I thought that perhaps you were referring to that publication - and found only one mention of a ros solis ... though without more info I'm not sure what we'd be looking for in there: p. 18.

Dates of death edit

I see that you added some dates of death to the various lists of botanists by author abbreviation. It's especially important that all biographical material is properly sourced. The only source given globally for the information in these lists is IPNI. I didn't check all your additions, but for "F.L.Martin", for example, IPNI still only has the date of birth. So the date of death is now not referenced.

Can you please add references for all dates not (yet) in IPNI? Otherwise they should be removed. Peter coxhead (talk) 07:27, 16 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

Edit to List of botanists by author abbreviation edit

Hi, you added a death date for A.C.H.Blinks = Anne Catherine Hof Blinks with just the "reference" <ref>California death records index</ref>. To support such an important piece of biographical information, we need a fuller reference – at least a URL if it's online, or reference to a published source if not. Can you supply this? At present I've left your addition as an HTML comment. Peter coxhead (talk) 06:23, 9 August 2014 (UTC)Reply

Whoops, when I checked IPNI, it turns out that both the people for whom you added references (one of which I expanded) were now there with the full details, so the extra refs weren't needed. A reminder to us both to check IPNI first! Peter coxhead (talk) 06:30, 9 August 2014 (UTC)Reply

Problems caused by your edits edit

It seems that when you add a reference to support a date of death not in IPNI, if that reference is not in the proper format (e.g. it's a bare URL), a bot called Yobot comes round and fixes it, but at the same time adds a duplicate reference section, which has then to be removed. There's an example of what it does here. So could you at least use the format [URL REF_DETAILS]?

Also note that it should be an n-dash between two years, not a hyphen. Copy and paste one from another line if you don't know how to produce one.

Melaleuca wilsonii and Charles/T.B. Wilson edit

Hello Nomen ambiguum,

Thank you for your edit to Melaleuca wilsonii. You are perfectly correct! I was surprised to see in the Australian National Botanic Gardens (reference [5]) that Wilson's initials were given as T.B. when Mueller had written "Caroli Wilson". I went with the ANBG. Big mistake! I wonder if the bit about "a 19th century traveller" is also wrong? Brophy et. al. has "Charles" and "friend". I will delete "19th century traveller".

Eremophila christopheri and Giles edit

Hello again Nomen ambiguum,

That's twice you've picked up my boo-boos. Chinnock wrote "After Christopher Giles, an acquaintance of Ernest Giles, who first collected the species." I thought that was ambiguous and so I wrote " Christopher Giles who was a friend of the collector Ernest Giles. Ernest Giles was an Australian explorer and the collector of the type specimen".

Am 25. Juni 1893 wurde ich, Käthe Rosenthal, Preußin, jüdischer Religion, als Tochter des Gemeinderabbiners Dr. phil. Ferdinand Rosenthal und seiner Ehefrau Amalie geb. Kaufmann zu Breslau geboren. Hier besuchte ich die Hönigersche Privatschule, die Viktoriaschule und die dieser angegliederte Realgymnasiale Studienanstalt, an der ich mir das Reifezeugnis erwarb. Von Ostern 1912 an studierte ich in Breslau Naturwissenschaften. Außerdem beschäftigte ich mich mit Philosophie. Vorlesungen und Übungen besuchte ich bei folgenden Herren Professoren und Dozenten:
Baumgartner, Biltz, v. Braun, Ehrlich, Outtmann, Hönigswald, Kükenthal, Lingelsheim, Lämmer, F. Pax, F. A. Pax, Rosen, Stern, Stock, Winkler.
Seit 1. Oktober 1915 bin ich Assistentin am Kgl. Botanischen Garten und Museum zu Breslau.
Meinem hochverehrten Lehrer, Herrn Geh. Reg.-Rat Prof. Dr. Pax, sei auch an dieser Stelle für die vielseitige Förderung meiner Arbeit und das mir stets entgegengebrachte Wohlwollen und Interesse mein wärmster Dank ausgesprochen.

Thanks for the text I couldn't access. I find it somewhat puzzling that Rosenthal refers to Käthe Hoffmann only as "Frl." when the others get academic titles. 1916 is before the year in which Hoffmann is treated as a full coauthor by Pax, so could she not have had a Ph.D. then? And hence only a junior post then? I haven't seen a date for Hoffmann getting a doctorate. Or, really confusingly, could Rosenthal have been referring to the other Käthe Hoffmann you've found? I thought it was becoming clearer, but perhaps not. Peter coxhead (talk) 21:34, 13 May 2020 (UTC)Reply

Masclef edit

It's not clear to me from looking at it how the reference you added to the entry for the botanical abbreviation "Masclef" supports a different date of death. Can you please expand reference with an explanation? Peter coxhead (talk) 15:56, 21 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

I don't see any reputable source for the claim of 1901! (PeoplePill??) The Amédée Masclef whose death is recorded on the Paris Archives site was born at Béthune on August 9, 1858. This agrees with the date and place of birth given by J.R. Wattez. ('C.-J. Dovergne, pionnier des observations botaniques dans le Departement du Pas-de-Calais.' in Bulletin de la Société de botanique du nord de la France, 63 (2-4)43-48. (on page 47).) According to the death record, he is survived by a widow, Leonie Marie Adele Mekarski. 'The Naturalists' Directory' for 1905 gives an address for Masclef in Champlan, and the 1901 Census on the Essonne Archives site shows that she is indeed his wife, and also gives Masclef's occupation as "conservateur des collections botaniques de la faculte des sciences de Paris. myheritage.com provided clues pointing to the death record. If I were a paid member, it would probably given me the exact date and arrondissement. Nomen ambiguum (talk) 19:50, 21 June 2020 (UTC)Reply
I see that IPNI has now been updated for Masclef, so no other reference is now needed. (Actually I doubt he's worth including in the list because only one name is attributed to him.) Peter coxhead (talk) 08:17, 22 June 2020 (UTC)Reply
The article says he was an abbé and he's been put in Category:French Roman Catholic priests, which isn't consistent with his having a wife. Peter coxhead (talk) 08:24, 22 June 2020 (UTC)Reply
I suspect his position at the Petit séminaire d'Arras may have required him to be a member of the clergy, which would no longer have been necessary at the Sorbonne. Wattez writes "Par la suite, rendu à l'état laïque, il intégra le laboratoire de Botanique de G. BONNIER et il serait devenu conservateur des collections de Botanique à la Sorbonne."

Another work by Masclef is Histoire naturelle cynégétique de France et des pays limitrophes ... Gibier & sauvagine, animaux auxiliaires de la chasse, ennemis du gibier ..
