Talk:Liverwort

I think maybe the first sentence should read `formally' rather than `formerly', but I'm not absolutely certain. --G Gordon Worley III 03:26, 5 Jun 2004 (UTC)

I don't think so. Formally, i.e. scientifically, it is Manchantiopsida, but in the past the group has been known as Hepaticae. I don't think any botanists still use Hepaticae, so the sentence is correct with "formerly". --Stemonitis 14:15, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)

disambig logic[edit]

Wanted to update Hepatica article - ended up on Manchantiopsida & realized that to a non-botanical reader this would be really confusing - they would either be 90% though article before realizing they where in the wrong place or else learn the tottaly wrong thing & remain blissfully ignorant. Hence I dabbed the page.Bridesmill 14:26, 20 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The use of "liverwort" as a name for Hepatica seems to be a typographical error (though an easy one to make!). None of the botanical books I consulted list it. I've removed it here and updated the Hepatica page, which I hope is clearer now. Nadiatalent (talk) 11:33, 27 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation page not needed[edit]

Since there are only two linked articles, and each has a disambiguating hatnote, this disambiguation page is not needed. The primary meaning of "liverwort" is Marchantiophyta, so I'm changing this page to a redirect to there. This will avoid the constant need to fix links of the form [[liverwort]].
