@Peter coxhead Thanks for quick response. Do you have any idea what I could delete from the “Botanical Resources” section? For example as there is a German article are any of the German ones still useful to readers of this article do you think? Chidgk1 (talk) 12:13, 30 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
They might be useful to specialists, but probably not to the general reader that we are supposed to be aiming at. Peter coxhead (talk) 16:11, 30 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
The sentence in the second paragraph "The flora of the European part of Turkey is similar to that of adjoining Greece. The ecoregions here include Balkan mixed forests dominated by oaks and containing Scots pine, Bosnian pine, Macedonian pine, silver fir and Norway spruce,[3]" doesn't make it clear that many of those species only occur much further northwest in the Balkans, and do not occur in Turkey - MPF (talk) 01:36, 1 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@MPF Thanks. Is “dominated by oaks” correct do you know? I deleted the other species. Chidgk1 (talk) 09:42, 2 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Chidgk1 thanks! Yes, "dominated by oaks" is OK, though Lime (Tilia spp.), Maple (Acer spp.) and Hornbeam (Carpinus spp.) are also significant. Scots Pine is also present in Turkey, but Bosnian Pine, Macedonian Pine and Norway Spruce don't occur in Turkey at all, and the Abies in Turkey is a different (though closely related) species. - MPF (talk) 14:27, 2 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
