Licensing information for the images (there are a lot of them) will be up shortly on the list talk page. The point of the list is so that people can enjoy learning some basic information about some trees that are common in North America (and many are common in temperate zones around the world). Feedback is welcome. - Dank (push to talk) 21:47, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I concede that Canada doesn't have a monopoly on forest inventories ... so if someone wants to propose and defend alternative inventories, I have no problem with that. I'd prefer to keep the current page title, but as a fall-back position, if necessary, the page could have a title that focuses only on Canada's national forest inventory of native trees. - Dank (push to talk) 19:17, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Very excited to see a new plant list! Unfortunately, Dank, the trees are so pretty but that header is physically painful to look at. :( Most of the Notes column is empty space on my screen because the double images stretch the rows vertically; even just changing the notes column down to 15% and column 3 up to 7% (and dropping/shuffling some linebreaks) makes it much easier to read. If you don't want to do that, maybe find a way to shorten column 3 and 5's headers and stick more detail in footnotes?

Did that; how does it look? - Dank (push to talk) 03:20, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Also:

  • The row headers need to start with !, not |, so !scope="row"
  • The genera table is missing rowscopes altogether.

    • Done these last two I think, thx. - Dank (push to talk) 02:53, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
      • Much better, thank you! --PresN 15:17, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Pseud 14[edit]

  • In the lead, you don't seem to use the serial comma (ie can be fashioned into posts, poles and railroad ties and used for plywood, wood veneer and construction framing), however, in the table an instance of summer months include ruby-crowned kinglets, ovenbirds, and Setophaga warblers. -- maybe worth dropping the latter for consistency.
  • That's all I could nitpick really. This is a well-structured, informative and FL-worthy list as one would expect from you work. Pseud 14 (talk) 17:58, 25 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. Pseud 14 (talk) 18:21, 25 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Image review from Z1720[edit]

  • File:Pinus banksiana tree.jpg: The source link didn't work so I replaced it with another link.
  • File:Pinus monticola opencones.jpg: Source link was broken so I added an archived link
  • File:PonderosaPinebarkidaho.JPG: Source link is broken but there is a notice that the copyright was released so I don't think its necessary
  • File:Thuja occidentalis trunk.jpg: replaced a broken link
  • File:Tsuga canadensis morton.jpg: added archived link
  • I fixed licence link concerns above, no other concerns with licencing.
  • All images have alt text.
  • File:Red Creek Fir.jpg: since this image is at the top of the page and not part of a row, I recommend that this alt text be a little more descriptive than "landscape".
  • No px problems, since most images are used in a template

Since there is only one minor concern with alt text, I can support this nomination based on the image review. Z1720 (talk) 16:28, 27 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Nicely done, thx. I used "trunk of a large tree in the forest" for the alt text. - Dank (push to talk) 20:36, 27 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 12:15, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    • Thanks Chris ... been trying to review your stuff but I never get there in time! I'll try to review the next one early. - Dank (push to talk) 13:24, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Source review – Reference reliability and formatting are both up to scratch, as expected. Giants2008 (Talk) 21:19, 18 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
