[edit]

I see no logical reason why Lissamphibia has been knocked out of the Amphibia taxonomy structure here. Care to explain? Bob the Wikipedian (talkcontribs) 06:57, 15 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Not a case of knocked out, more a case of never made in the first place. Feel free to at it. Petter Bøckman (talk) 07:04, 15 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Ah, my mistake. I meant to ask about Tetrapoda. I assume the reasoning here has something to do with Tetrapoda possibly displaying either polyphyly or paraphyly? Bob the Wikipedian (talkcontribs) 08:07, 15 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
No, I think that was just my mistake. I forgot that the automatic taxoboxes won't display intermediates above the first formal unit. I was fearing an overly detailed taxobox. No, go ahead and add Tetrapoda! Petter Bøckman (talk) 08:11, 15 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Ah, okay. I figured this was something to do with that and was prepared to compromise. Actually, a week ago, that would have posed a serious problem, but Martin's updated the code now to handle 51 layers now instead of 12. I'll restore the Tetrapoda as the parent here. Lissamphibia...what was I thinking? Bob the Wikipedian (talkcontribs) 03:51, 16 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
