Stearn's botanical names (T)
... that the original drafter of the International Code of Nomenclature for Cultivated Plants, William T. Stearn, published a guide to plant names?
- Comment: my second (ever) DYK. Note that the hook is kind of similar to the one for Stearn's botanical names (U–Z) (on the DYK/Approved page under April 5). I'll be happy to try to come up with a fun fact about one of the plants mentioned, if that would be better.
Created by Dank (talk) and Johnboddie (talk). Nominated by Dank (talk) at 03:49, 10 April 2020 (UTC).
- Template:Re Everything looks good. I just have one question. Would you like to somehow combine this with Template:Did you know nominations/Stearn's botanical names (U–Z)? I'm pretty sure running what is substantially the same hook twice is frowned upon, so it may be better to combine these. Pinging Template:U who approved the other nomination. epicgenius (talk) 18:12, 12 April 2020 (UTC)
- I'm happy to do a twofer, but I don't know how. - Dank (push to talk) 18:16, 12 April 2020 (UTC)
- Template:U, just have two bolded links in the same sentence. Like guide to plant names (though this is pretty clunky) or something else. epicgenius (talk) 18:24, 12 April 2020 (UTC)
- Gerda, you liked the other hook ... what wording would you use for a twofer? - Dank (push to talk) 18:27, 12 April 2020 (UTC)
- Okay, Gerda left a msg on my talk page. How about this for a twofer? "... that the original drafter of the International Code of Nomenclature for Cultivated Plants, William T. Stearn, published a guide to plant names?" - Dank (push to talk) 01:24, 13 April 2020 (UTC)
- Or, if you want something shorter: "... that William T. Stearn published an influential guide to plant names?" - Dank (push to talk) 02:11, 13 April 2020 (UTC)
- Problem solved, maybe ... a reviewer at WP:FLC has just asked me to combine the two lists! I won't know for sure until other reviewers weigh in, though. - Dank (push to talk) 15:09, 13 April 2020 (UTC)
- I've changed the name to ...(T–Z), but I won't change it here yet while I wait for more reviewer comments at the FLC. - Dank (push to talk) 19:27, 13 April 2020 (UTC)
- Okay, the name has been changed to Stearn's botanical names (T–Z) on all of the relevant WP:FLC pages. We can do whatever you guys like with the DYK nom. - Dank (push to talk) 13:08, 14 April 2020 (UTC)
- Template:Re Would you like to merge Stearn's botanical names (T) with Stearn's botanical names (T–Z)? This way, you can have a single nomination (which Gerda already approved), which means this nomination will have to be procedurally failed. For now, I'm putting this on hold. epicgenius (talk) 15:40, 14 April 2020 (UTC)
- "On hold" sounds good; we won't know for sure what the reviewers at FLC want until we're done there. - Dank (push to talk) 16:56, 14 April 2020 (UTC)
- Epicgenius: I'd like to withdraw this, please. FLC isn't going well. - Dank (push to talk) 18:13, 14 April 2020 (UTC)
- Template:Re All right then. epicgenius (talk) 18:15, 14 April 2020 (UTC)
- Epicgenius: I'd like to withdraw this, please. FLC isn't going well. - Dank (push to talk) 18:13, 14 April 2020 (UTC)

Officially placing on hold for now. epicgenius (talk) 17:32, 14 April 2020 (UTC)
Dank has withdrew his nomination, so we should consider this to be an unsuccessful DYK nomination. epicgenius (talk) 18:15, 14 April 2020 (UTC)
