Kharayeb as the TOTW article

@Elias Ziade Hi! I wanted to let you know that the article Kharayeb is a current candidate to be chosen for the meta:Translation of the week project, meaning if it succeeds it could be translated into several other languages in the span of a week. If you want to see how the process is going and vote yourself, you can check it at meta:Translation of the week/Translation candidates#en:Kharayeb. Have a nice day! -- Brunnaiz (talk) 19:36, 28 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Flora distributions

Hi, please see Wikipedia:WikiProject Plants/World Geographical Scheme for Recording Plant Distributions for advice on categorizing flora by distribution. In particular, we don't place an article in both a parent and a child category (this applies generally). So a plant that can be placed in Category:Flora of temperate Asia or Category:Flora of Western Asia isn't also placed in Category:Flora of Lebanon, for example.

@Peter coxhead

Thanks, Peter, for clarifying. I did suspect this would be the case, and I encountered several instances where it seemed the rule wasn’t being enforced. So, I thought it might be acceptable in certain situations. Please note that the categorization I applied was to facilitate a project for a local initiative. I will be more mindful in the future. el.ziade (talkallam) 19:11, 12 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
