User talk:ElCuervitoAzul

Hello Stan,

This article was not originally written for Wikipedia, but I am trying to learn how to format it to look nice. I am trying to increase access to important information about this plant. I am quite new to Wikipedia, and appreciate your forbearance and, if possible, help. Thanks!

All my courtesy.--Modocbot 19:01, 21 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi and welcome to Wikipedia! Is the text of Astragalus lemmonii originally written for WP, or is it acquired from elsewhere? It's not in the usual style for WP articles. Stan 18:53, 21 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Just to make sure, the text isn't copyrighted by somebody else, right? Our material has to have a free license or be in the public domain (US govt material is PD, but not state govt usually). The easiest way to learn about good article style is to look at exemplars - for instance Banksia brownii is a "featured article" about a plant species. It would be nice to have a North American plant article get to featured status, none has made it there yet. One of the things you'll notice is the flowing narrative; though not as efficient as the usual scientific style, it's more accessible to our non-botanical audience.

Thanks for your info!

Hello again,

    I have tried to re-format the page to be consistent with the style of plant-folks in Wikipedia.  I will likely be adding other pages and using this as a template, so please make whichever changes you think would be useful.  I will try improving these pages with time, but for the immediate future, I shall be at least getting some raw info out.  Thanks again!
