Nomen ambiguum
{{desbloquear|Please pardon me for using English. Every change I made was based on personal examination of the protologue of the taxon deleted. Certain contributors have created long lists of eponyms without verifying them. Without doubt, many other of the taxa listed are also misattributed, but I have not been able to verify all of them myself. Regarding the page "Charles Le Forestier", Charles Le Forestier was a retired military squadron leader and botanist, not the physician for whom Forestiera was named. The abbreviation "Forest." in botany refers to Aime De Forestier, another retired military man and botanist, for whom the two species listed on the same page were in fact named.

Información eliminada
editarVeo que has eliminado información epónima válida en bastantes artículos de botánicos sin argumentar un motivo, si no me explicas porqué lo has hecho revertiré tus cambios. Anna (Cookie) 20:22 16 dic 2012 (UTC)
- Como has continuado eliminando información sin motivo y sin responder a mi mensaje estás bloqueado 31 horas, mientras revierto tus contribuciones a la espera de que puedas aportar la razón cuando caduque el bloqueo. Anna (Cookie) 21:05 16 dic 2012 (UTC)
- In that case I will replace your editions, but please next time give a reason for your changes. Cheers. Anna (Cookie) 15:24 3 oct 2013 (UTC)
How to reference?
editarIf an eponym does not refer to a individual, and should be removed from an article, then where in the article am I to put the reference once the erroneous matter it disproves is removed? The reference that proves the claim is wrong is the same source that the contributor of the incorrect entry wrongly cites! Is this a situation which can not be corrected in any way. Check out Dawson Turner, who is claimed to have had genus named for him long before he was born Nomen ambiguum (discusión) 23:37 3 dic 2013 (UTC)
