Hello

If you see a problem with the taxonomy templates which have the appearance of:

{{Saxifragles
| genus=
| auth=
}}

it should be good to point the problem out to the author. In this case, that is me. The changes you made were accurate, but the template should have been repaired which would have repaired problems on many similar pages. -- carol (talk) 07:26, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

links to other wiki's categories

I thought a long while about this and can come up with no reason for a category here to link to the categories at the wikipedia's. In fact, I did not know that categories even existed at the wikipedia's until quite some time and articles authored/edited.

I also know that I just because I am unable to come up with a good reason to link to wikipedia categories (the wikipedia articles are interlinked in the text which commons does not have a lot of text for that) does not mean that there is no reason to link to them. Can you share with me the reasons that you link the categories to the categories? -- carol (talk) 18:35, 20 November 2008 (UTC)
