Lead Section (I) – Include genus and species names (italicized, genus capitalized) and growth form (annual, perennial, shrub, tree, etc.). General overview of plant species.

1. Presents tabular information about the nomenclature, common synonyms, and classification of the plant species.

Description (II) – How would you identify it? Describe leaves, flowers, and fruiting bodies. Include index on habitat, height, bloom time, physical arrangement, native range (i.e. states, geographic region), etc.

1. Presents tabular information about the physical characteristics of the plant species (i.e. leaf arrangement, leaf veneration, fruit type, etc.)

2. Provides niche supplemental information about plant species characteristics (i.e. petal size, flowering periods, elevation v. times of observation map, biome, native plant status, dicot).

3. Provides minor information about classification into the Ranunculaceae / Buttercup Family. Additionally, presents information about physical characteristics (perennial, herb /forb growth habit, fruit type achene, size notes), bloom information, and state distribution (AL, GA, KY, NC, SC, TN, VA, WV).

5. Information about the section (Physocarpum), phenology (May – July), Habitat (seepages, moist forests, spray cliff at waterfalls, brookbanks), Distribution (southern Appalachian Endemic) wetland indicator status (eastern mountains and piedmont), heliophily (3).

5. Provides in-depth description of the plant species within a tabular presentation (fruits, stems, flowers, etc.)

6. In-depth description of the distribution, abundance, habitat (This is a species of rich forests, though mainly close to cold water. It favors wooded seepages and streamsides, spray cliffs, and other similar places, but it certainly can be found in Rich Cove Forests.), phenology (Blooms from May to July, and fruits shortly after flowering. It blooms after the main push of spring wildflowers of cove forests (late March into early May)), and identification.

7. Numerical / Measurements about the physical features of the plant (i.e. 10-30 mm wide stem).

10. Information about the physical features of the plant, including measurements (2.4 – 4 mm inflorescence, 15-60 mm stems, etc).

13 /15. Presents information on the difference between different Thalictrum species within North Carolina, provides minimal information and could be removed from bibliography. Information regarding other plant species, confounding information.

16. Graphical information about phenology, observation across hemispheres, altitude, and frequency across years.

Taxonomy (III) – When was it discovered and described? Mention etymology, major synonyms, and changes in classifications.

1. Presents information about the common synonyms of the plant species – Thalictrum filipes, Thalictrum nudicaule.

3. USDA symbol of THCL, USDA native status of L48 (N).

4. Provides information about the biological classification of the species (kingdom, subkingdom, division, class, order, family, genus, etc).

5. Provides information about the scientist who discovered the plant species – A.P. de Candolle.

10. Information about the first publication of the plant species discovery (1817, A.P. de Candolle).

Distribution and Habitat (IV) – When does it grow? Mention geography, elevation, climate, soil types, light, propagation, and growth density (singly or in groups). An ecology subsection can describe interactions within the environment, including pests, pollinators, and disease. Conservation concerns can go here, or add another section.

1. Presents a species distribution map depicting the distinct biomes inhabited by the plant species / ecoregions. Noted that limited to select regions of Kentucky and Tennessee).

8. Provides information about the habitat of the plant species (Seeps, rocky stream banks, wet cliffs, and spray zones of waterfalls. Frequent on the Southern Blue Ridge; infrequent to rare elsewhere in sw. Virginia.)

10. Provides information about the median elevation of the plant species (500m).

16. Graphical information about phenology, observation across hemispheres, altitude, and frequency across years.

Uses / Culture (V)- How is this species used by humans / horticultural uses.

Bibliography As you gather the sources for your Wikipedia contribution, think about the following: Is the source from a reliable publication? Reliable publications include established newspapers, academic journals and books, textbooks, and other published sources with reputations for accuracy and fact-checking. Unreliable sources include blog posts and other self-published works, press releases, and social media posts. Is the source verifiable? In order for a source to be considered verifiable, other editors should be able to consult the source. Is the source independent of the subject? Is the source connected in any way to the subject? This is especially important when writing biographies or about organizations. For example, if you were writing a biography, sources like the person’s webpage or personal blog would not be considered independent. Is the source primary or secondary? Primary sources include first-hand accounts, autobiographies, and other original content. Wikipedia allows limited use of primary sources, but typically only for straightforward, descriptive statements of facts, and only if they are published and verifiable without requiring specialized knowledge. Secondary sources should be the main basis for a biography on Wikipedia. If you’re working on a topic related to medicine or psychology, ensure that your sources follow these special guidelines. If you’re creating a new article, consider the following: Ensure that your topic meets Wikipedia’s notability guidelines. In order for a topic to meet the notability requirement, you must be able to identify 2-3 sources that are reliable, verifiable, and independent of the subject you’re writing about. Finding sufficient sources to establish notability can be especially hard when writing about people or organizations. Sources that are not independent of the subject might be useful additions, but don’t count towards the notability requirement. Wikipedia has developed special guidelines for writing about living persons. Please follow these carefully. Wikipedia has a series of guidelines for writing about different categories of people, such as academics and artists. If you’re trying to create a new entry about a living person, please look at these carefully. If you’re not sure whether a source is reliable, ask a librarian! If you have questions about Wikipedia’s sourcing rules, you can use the Get Help button below to contact your Wikipedia Expert.

Examples: Luke, Learie. 2007. Identity and secession in the Caribbean: Tobago versus Trinidad, 1889–1980 Kingston, Jamaica: University of the West Indies Press. This is a book published by a university press, so it should be a reliable source. It also covers the topic in some depth, so it’s helpful in establishing notability. Galeano, Gloria; Bernal, Rodrigo. 2013. “Sabinaria , a new genus of palms (Cryosophileae, Coryphoideae, Arecaceae) from the Colombia-Panama border”. Phytotaxa. This is a peer-reviewed scientific journal, so it should be a reliable source. It covers the topic in some depth, so it’s helpful in establishing notability. Baker, William J.; Dransfield, John 2016. “Beyond Genera Palmarum: progress and prospects in palm systematics”. Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society. This is a peer-reviewed scientific journal, so it should be a reliable source for a specific fact. Since it only dedicates a few sentences to the topic, it can’t be used to establish notability.
