Shouldn't (almost) every redirect in this category be swapped with the corresponding article because of WP:COMMONNAME? EvanTaylor1289 (talk) 11:20, 25 April 2021 (UTC)Reply

@EvanTaylor1289: no; see WP:NCFLORA. Also don't cofuse "common" meaning 'vernacular' with "common" meaning 'most frequently used'. Peter coxhead (talk) 17:17, 25 April 2021 (UTC)Reply

@Peter coxhead: Thank you for that. I think there are a few articles here that still break WP:NCFLORA, but not the entire category - I'll have that conversation at the individual page. EvanTaylor1289 (talk) 17:27, 25 April 2021 (UTC)Reply
