- Hi, Bromels! I've restored the article in question. Such stubs do indeed meet our criteria for inclusion and I don't think this speedy deletion was warranted. I have added a bit of information, though, to give you an idea of what might be included to avoid this problem in the future. You could certainly at least mention where the species is native or endemic to and inclusion of a reference might be helpful. Let me know if there's anything I can do to help as you figure out how to navigate and build articles on Wikipedia. To start, you can take note of some of the changes I made on the Pepinia bulbosa article to get an idea of what's typically expected of new plant articles.

]Typo in Greigia articles
Hi Bromels. It looks like the template you are using to create Greigia articles contains a typo: They all read "in endemic to", instead of "is endemic to". Just a headsup. Gonzonoir (talk) 12:39, 17 November 2009 (UTC)

Autoreviewer
Hi Bromels, as you are currently very active at article creation, have you considered nominating yourself for autoreviewer status at
Cultivar articles
Hi, Bromels! Wow, you've been prolific in article creation. Nice job! I did wonder if perhaps you could take the time to move all the new cultivar articles you created to the format that includes the quotes, e.g. like I just did with Tillandsia Wo to Tillandsia 'Wo'. Most of our cultivar articles follow that format, though there's no specific convention spelled out anywhere. And I gather that this format is typical for most horticultural trades - is it different for Bromeliaceae? I know the orchid trade has some specific nomenclatural conventions... Cheers, Rkitko (talk) 02:00, 19 December 2009 (UTC)
I was on the fence on the quote issue. I think I'll do as you suggest and add the quotes along with a redirect page so that those who don't care about quotes can end up on the same page. Bromels (talk) 04:16, 27 December 2009 (UTC)
- Sounds like a plan. I don't mean to impose, but since you seem like such a Bromeliaceae expert, would you mind terribly if I sent you a few photos to identify? I've been put in charge of labeling the greenhouse collection at work and I'm stumped on the bromeliads. They're likely common and easy to ID as they're probably from hardware or grocery stores. I know at least in the carnivorous plant trade, there are only a few common cultivars sold in these places. Feel free to decline if you're swamped with other work! Cheers, Rkitko (talk) 03:41, 3 January 2010 (UTC)
The best place to post pictures for ID is on the GardenWeb.com bromeliad forum. There are some real sharp people who participate on that forum and they enjoy the challenge of the unknown plant. Bromels (talk) 01:26, 5 January 2010 (UTC)

PROD incoming for several cultivars
I've located a large number of apparently non-notable cultivars with no significant coverage and no suitable redirect target. Based on that, I intend to PROD tag a number of them. In the interests of not spamming this talk page with dozens more notices, I'm leaving this note here for documentation. The rationale will all be the same: "Non-notable cultivar. Cultivars are not presumed notable in the same manner that natural species are. I was not able to locate any significant (ie non-database/non-trivial) coverage indicating that this particular hybrid cultivar is notable. It would be UNDUE to list all non-notable cultivars at the genus page, so it's not suitable to be redirected there." A list of the cultivars that I'm working from can be found in this sandbox. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 20:32, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
