Missing info on coinfections including potential issuesEdit
See "Missing info on "hybrid viral particles" and other (potential) issues from coinfections". This doesn't only relate to the Coinfection article. Prototyperspective (talk) 22:20, 7 December 2022 (UTC)
National Microbial Pathogen Data ResourceEdit
National Microbial Pathogen Data Resource looks like it could be an exceptionally useful article to Wikipedia editors (e.g., to help figure out whether a source is reliable). If anyone knows something about this subject, the article could use some attention. WhatamIdoing (talk) 00:08, 9 January 2023 (UTC)
The List provided here does neither follow NCBI Taxonomy nor LPSN. It looks very like GTDB instead:
E. g. there is a phylum Asgardarchaeota with class Lokiarchaeia comprising Lokiarchaeales and Helarchaeales, but not a phylum Lokiarchaeota. Besides of the fact that the list is worthless due to invalid reference, this rises further problems as follows:
LokiarchaeaceaeEdit
"Lokiarchaeaceae " could not be veryfied anywehere, even not in GTDB. There is no reference provided for "Lokiarchaeaceae" Vanwonterghem et al. 2016. Is Lokiarchaeaceae eqal to GTDB-family MK-D1? For a discussion of this and the question if "Lokiarchaeaceae" Vanwonterghem et al. 2016 might be equal to GTDB family MK-D1 see Talk:Lokiarchaeota#2 species cultivated now.
- A Google lookup returned just hits from russian server in chinese that wanted me to input my creditcard dates. Please find a serious source for
- "Lokiarchaeaceae" Vanwonterghem et al. 2016
SigynarchaealesEdit
Order "Sigynarchaeales" belongs to pyhlum Sigynarchaeaota (strain SQRJ_234) according to LPSN. This clade is not known to NCBI taxonomy. There is no relation to Lokiarchaota/Lokiarchaeia according to the rfrerenced soureces. Please could anyone fix this? Thanks.
Project-independent quality assessmentsEdit
Quality assessments by Wikipedia editors rate articles in terms of completeness, organization, prose quality, sourcing, etc. Most wikiprojects follow the general guidelines at Wikipedia:Content assessment, but some have specialized assessment guidelines. A recent Village pump proposal was approved and has been implemented to add a |class= parameter to {{WikiProject banner shell}}, which can display a general quality assessment for an article, and to let project banner templates "inherit" this assessment.
No action is required if your wikiproject follows the standard assessment approach. Over time, quality assessments will be migrated up to {{WikiProject banner shell}}, and your project banner will automatically "inherit" any changes to the general assessments for the purpose of assigning categories.
However, if your project has decided to "opt out" and follow a non-standard quality assessment approach, all you have to do is modify your wikiproject banner template to pass {{WPBannerMeta}} a new |QUALITY_CRITERIA=custom parameter. If this is done, changes to the general quality assessment will be ignored, and your project-level assessment will be displayed and used to create categories, as at present.

Bacteria not validly publishedEdit
Wikipedia has many articles on bacteria that are not validly published. There is a deletion discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Gabonia for 6 of them. I've started a thread at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Tree of Life#Bacteria not validly published for a broader discussion about which, if any, bacteria not validly published should have articles.
