Concern regarding Draft:Lichen

For general info, I recently got the following message from the 'pedia (presumably because I'm the one who created the draft in the first place). All it will take is a small edit somewhere to keep the draft "live", but we'll definitely want to do that so we don't lose all the talk page details! MeegsC (talk) 11:01, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

Hello, MeegsC. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:Lichen, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Drafts that have not been edited for six months may be deleted, so if you wish to retain the page, please edit it again or request that it be moved to your userspace.

If the page has already been deleted, you can request it be undeleted so you can continue working on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. FireflyBot (talk) 00:07, 16 May 2024 (UTC)

Already done! Esculenta (talk) 15:51, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

Popular journals update

In the most recent version of the most-often cited journals on Wikipedia page, The Lichenologist has moved up to position #130. Making its first appearance on the "top" page, The Bryologist (which also published many lichen-related articles) is at position #225. Esculenta (talk) 17:50, 23 May 2024 (UTC)

That's impressive! And it shows how much work you've done (since you're the primary driver of this project) since we started the task force. MeegsC (talk) 19:18, 23 May 2024 (UTC)

Thanks! I imagine Australasian Lichenology will make an appearance too after I publish a few hundred Oz-related species articles currently on the backburner. Esculenta (talk) 19:22, 23 May 2024 (UTC)

The Lives of Lichens

Just received my copy of this new (2024) publication by Robert Lücking and Toby Spribille... looks very interesting and well put together! It'll be a useful up-to-date source for the lichen article rewrite. Esculenta (talk) 23:25, 4 June 2024 (UTC)

Just got a copy too! And yes, looks very interesting... MeegsC (talk) 13:55, 16 July 2024 (UTC)

1001

... is how many articles we now have in the category Category:Lichen genera, meaning there's only about 50 left to complete all of them! I'll probably make a "To-do" link to a progress page with a table containing the rest of the redlinks. Esculenta (talk) 21:17, 23 June 2024 (UTC)
