I've taken out the experimental disambig sidebar - it looked pretty horrible to me. Here's a screenshot of what I got if anybody's interested (trimmed down so just the relevant bit is showing): Image:Elm_article_looking_un-nice.png. --Camembert

Description of species[edit]

Why was all the specific information on different species (e.g. height, leaves, bark) written here? They should belong in the article for that species. I prefer a clean simple look to the page, SCHZMO 19:49, 12 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Agree - it needs to be moved to a seperate page, as it takes up way too much space and diverts attention from the more important text below. DWaterson 19:26, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

English Elms[edit]

I have put some information in the discussion page of the English Elm article. 78.149.220.232 (talk) 12:04, 26 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Species list[edit]

The main articles for the Taxonomy section are List of Elm species and varieties by common name, Alphabetical list of extant Elm species by scientific name, List of Elm species and varieties by scientific name, List of Elm cultivars, hybrids and hybrid cultivars, List of Elm synonyms and accepted names. There badly needs to be a List of Ulmus species to replace some of these and organize the rest. The title "List of Ulmus species" follows the convention for most plant genera including others at common name titles. I don't have the patience to work on unifying and organizing the lists at present, but if somebody else wants to take it on that would be fantastic.Plantdrew (talk) 02:03, 5 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I think they can all be combined to be honest, like has been done at List of Acer species. I think having five different articles all covering the exact same material is excessive.--Kevmin § 21:42, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
