John, I believe there are 11 listings for Musa Ae Ae in total some due to not listing it under Musa and others because of combining Ae Ae together to form AeAe, etc. However, they all redirect to the same page so I've never seen it as much of a problem.

I've never seen evidence that moderators do any changes to the structure of the wiki or the forum. I find the wiki very useful even with the duplicate listings as I just need to find one name I'm looking for and it takes me to the page for it and the content is generally pretty good. Sometimes I've added the photos of others to a wiki page if I am aware that it is short on photos. I also try to remember to consider adding my own photos to a wiki when I'm posting them to the forum, but I often forget about it. When my Ae Ae flowers (hopefully this summer), I'll surely take plenty of photos and post them to the forum as well as the wiki.

I believe a lot of the hardiness claims of some cultivars is exaggerated and some editing should be done there. Many people get some plants to survive in zone 8 which have died for me in zone 9 but only with a lot of protection and that's not really an appropriate zone rating, in my opinion. For that matter, I think the psuedostem should survive the winter to get rated for a particular zone, not just the corm. That might not matter for ornamental bananas but it's critical for those of us that are trying to get fruit.

I wish there was a way we could work together as a team to make things more uniform.

Thanks,

Harvey
