I have copied the above from the "Tropical dry forest" page: I would suggest that its importance is actually high and find the proposal for deletion (Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Tropical_forest) most unfortunate. Note: this debate started in 2012 and can be found on Talk:Tropical_and_subtropical_moist_broadleaf_forests - I found the comments there by User:Grolltech very appropriate, especially: "Ideally, each of the unlinked terms above might someday get their own page, but until then, they point here (or at least they should). To redirect them all to rainforest or to tropical forest (a term which which includes tropical dry broadleaf forests and tropical coniferous forests, by the way) would certainly not be in anyone's best interest. And seriously, forest? We might as well just redirect all of these pages to Earth, and leave it at that."
I have suggested that the purpose of this page is:
to act as a generic guide to the various sorts of tropical forest (including "tropical rainforest, which is a sub-set): thus mitigating some of the issues that confuse the latter from: seasonal tropical forest, tropical cloudforest, dry tropical forest, etc. and the ecotones between them;
level-5 vital article is rated Start-class on Wikipedia's content assessment scale.
