Acer diabolicum
- ... that Acer diabolicum, the devil maple, gets its scientific and common names from its curly stigmas (pictured)? Source: "The scientific and common names arise from the curious hornlike stigmas which persist at the inner junction of the fruit nutlets, resembling the horns of the devil."

Review: Article is 1. new enough, created 6 December. 2.It is long enough. 3. There are no serious policy concerns. The hook is 1 correctly formatted and 2 interesting enough. The images are all Commons compliant, of sufficient quality and one of them shows the feature mentioned in the hook. I support accepting this nomination.

Template:Ping did you pass this? If so, please add the appropriate tick. --evrik (talk) 16:37, 13 January 2020 (UTC)

Repeating Roger (Dodger67)'s tick here, which was added after the "review again" icon; the bot that moves approved hooks only sees the lowest-appearing icon on the page, so duplicating the tick lower down will get this nomination to the Approved page. BlueMoonset (talk) 07:34, 16 January 2020 (UTC)

Hi, I came by to promote this, but several paragraphs lack inline citations, per Rule D2. The footnotes are also uncited. Yoninah (talk) 20:50, 16 January 2020 (UTC)
- I have been slowly adding citations. Let me know when I am done. Abductive (reasoning) 01:47, 30 January 2020 (UTC)
- Yoninah, it looks like all paragraphs have at least one inline citation. Is it ready? BlueMoonset (talk) 22:01, 30 January 2020 (UTC)
- Template:Ping I added a cn tag after a chunk of text under Cultivation and uses. The footnotes also need sources. Yoninah (talk) 22:08, 30 January 2020 (UTC)
- I don't know how to put sources inside footnotes. Can you provide an example article that does it correctly? Or would a link to Wiktionary suffice for the word definitions? Abductive (reasoning) 22:30, 30 January 2020 (UTC)
- Template:Ping you just insert <ref>Book or newspaper source information</ref> at the end of the footnote and before the closing squiggly lines. Yoninah (talk) 23:01, 30 January 2020 (UTC)
- I think I've completed the sourcing. I had to delete a footnote because I couldn't find the source I read back in December. I suspect that Google's algorithm was influenced by the creation of the Wikipedia article, since a number of my old search results are not reproducible.
