Hey, fun coincidence!

Noticed you made Aquilegia barykinae at almost the same time I made Aquilegia chaplinei! I have a couple good resources on columbines if you need anything to help you flesh out your article! Best, ~ Pbritti (talk) 13:28, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hey @Pbritti! Thanks very much :) I don't have access to any special resources (other than Oxford Academic, which doesn't have a whole lot of botanical content) so that would be great! Jacketpocket (talk) 12:40, 8 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I picked up a copy of Robert Nold's 2003 Aquilegia. It's very similar to Munz's work but has some nice updates. If you need access to anything on JSTOR, Cambridge, Nature, or anything else you can think of, I have access through the Wikipedia Library! ~ Pbritti (talk) 22:08, 13 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, just wanted to let you know I've started work on Aquilegia hinckleyana in a userspace draft. Planning to make an article on it and the waterfall that it's endemic to. Realized that we might end up independently start working on creating the same article considering how you're burning through the genus. Not "claiming" any, but I'd also like to be the one to start the articles for Aquilegia microcentra, Aquilegia nivalis, Aquilegia oxysepala, Aquilegia pubiflora, Aquilegia scopulorum, and Aquilegia turczaninovii. Those species are ones that I currently have good offline material for, and thus feel best qualified to take responsibility for. Let me know if you wanted to take point on any or need assistance looking for material on a more obscure species.

Separately, I'd encourage you to consider getting autopatrolled as soon as you can. You definitely would be a good candidate! ~ Pbritti (talk) 02:41, 15 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for letting me know, and please do "claim" those ones! I have no particular favourites, just working my way through roughly alphabetically.

If you happen to find anything for the Pakistani endemics described by Qureshi & Chaudhri (Aquilegia baluchistanica, Aquilegia chitralensis, Aquilegia cymosa), then that would be amazing - they were definitely the hardest to scrape together a Start-class article for.

Thanks for the tip on autopatrolling; I hadn't even heard of that. And LMK if you ever need any info from an Oxford University Press publication too! Jacketpocket (talk) 22:30, 15 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Happily, I do have a small amount of material on these species! I have added content to Aquilegia baluchistanica. I have access to OUP content through both the Wikipedia Library and my job, but your offer is terribly kind. If you reach the end of your alphabetical run and find I've failed to hit a species, please fill it in. It's nice to see how you've filled out articles on new or obscure species with limited resources. Extremely glad to have stumbled into working in this subject area at the same time as you! ~ Pbritti (talk) 00:33, 16 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Letting you know that I'm on the hunt to support creation of Aquilegia kubanica. I've requested one source here and purchased another one. ~ Pbritti (talk) 15:57, 23 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Autopatrolled granted

Hi Jacketpocket, I just wanted to let you know that I have added the autopatrolled user right to your account. This means that pages you create will automatically be marked as 'reviewed', and no longer appear in the new pages feed. Autopatrolled is assigned to prolific creators of articles, where those articles do not require further review, and may have been requested on your behalf by someone else. It doesn't affect how you edit; it is used only to manage the workload of new page patrollers.

Since the articles you create will no longer be systematically reviewed by other editors, it is important that you maintain the high standard you have achieved so far in all your future creations. Please also try to remember to add relevant WikiProject templates, stub tags, categories, and incoming links to them, if you aren't already in the habit; user scripts such as Rater and StubSorter can help with this. As you have already shown that you have a strong grasp of Wikipedia's core content policies, you might also consider volunteering to become a new page patroller yourself, helping to uphold the project's standards and encourage other good faith article writers.

Feel free to leave me a message if you have any questions. Happy editing! Schwede 66 02:11, 20 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for Aquilegia gegica

On 4 January 2025, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Aquilegia gegica, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Aquilegia gegica and Aquilegia colchica, two species of columbine native to the Caucasus, can produce fertile hybrid offspring? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Aquilegia gegica. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Aquilegia gegica), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed.

DYK for Aquilegia barykinae

On 8 January 2025, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Aquilegia barykinae, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Aquilegia barykinae is likely more closely related to other species of columbine than to Aquilegia amurensis, which shares its range? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Aquilegia barykinae. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Aquilegia barykinae), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed.

DYK for Aquilegia daingolica

On 12 January 2025, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Aquilegia daingolica, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status.

The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Aquilegia daingolica. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Aquilegia daingolica), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed.

propagate.one

Propagate.one, which you've cited as a source for vernacular names for Aquilegia baluchistanica and Aquilegia hirsutissima appears to me to be very likely to be AI (Large Language Model) garbage. I'm removing the source and the statements it purports to support. Plantdrew (talk) 00:19, 17 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, drat, thanks @Plantdrew. I should have picked up on that! Jacketpocket (talk) 09:43, 17 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
