February 2004[edit]

Well it depends who we are. It is the standard for how we do things on the NL wikipedia. Consider; what is the point of the box OTHER that to provide a context. The body is where you want to tell ABOUT your subject. With Lemurs, the genus belongs with the family therefore in the body of the text. GerardM 14:08, 25 Feb 2004 (UTC)

Added reference about hybridization in Eulemur[edit]

It seems to me that this is an interesting thing to note about lemurs in general, so I put the reference under Lemuridae, but it could just as easily (or as a duplicate) on under True lemur. Hmmm, it just occurred to me that the best way to do it might be to put a general statement in Lemuridae and the specific reference in True lemur. What do you think? - Longtrekhome 13:35, 3 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Factual Problem[edit]

Um, just a thought (and trying to help, because I like Wiki, but it gets a bad rap for this sorta thing) - it is highly unlikely that any Ancient Roman ever set foot on Madagascar in order to name a Lemur. I don't think there needs to be a citation on this statement, I think it probably needs to be removed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.27.175.223 (talk) 03:21, 22 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
