big[nuts (fruit)|nuts]]
The text "big[nuts (fruit)|nuts]]" is in the first paragraph. Is that supposed to be there? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 204.69.4.20 (talk) 02:23, 6 October 2010 (UTC)
Pollinator and pollenizer
Please do not confuse . While they are often used incorrectly, an encyclopedic work should be right. No plant can pollinate another plant. In this case wind is the pollinator. Plants pollenize each other. Do not confurs the "bull" with the "AI technition." If that's not simple enough, do not confuse the "john" with the "pimp." Pollinator 16:41, 20 Jan 2004 (UTC)
Redirect
I intend shortly to redirect this article (Hickory) to the genus name, Carya. The scientific binomial names are the only way to properly classify plants and animals, and should be the landing page for all inquiries regarding organisms with generally recognized "common", colloquial, regional or vernacular names. (In my humble opinion). Nickrz 13:32, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
- Carya is currently a disambig page, so this will need a bit of thinking about what the page about hickories should be at. Options include (1; my preference) move the current disambig to [Carya (disambiguation)] and have hickories at [Carya], best as the other uses of Carya are very minor; or (2) retain [Carya] as the disambig, and put the hickories at either [Carya (plant)] (which doesn't exist yet) or [Carya (genus)] (currently a redirect, though less in accord with other disambiguated plant page names). Thoughts, anyone? Unless anyone objects, I'll carry out option 1 in a few days. - MPF 13:43, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
I'd like to propose that Hickory should be separated from Carya. This would allow some text about the evolution of the genus Carya, which is currently on the Pecan page to be moved to a genus page. The hickory page really should not have a taxobox, but should mention both Carya and Annamocarya. Such an arrangement would parallel, for example, the separation of Banana from Musa.
