Hi, the recent edit you made to Biota of the Isle of Man has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thanks.

Hi.I reverted your edits because of this part of the Manual of Style. While Latin is universally used in the field of biology, Manx probably isn't. Will ^(talk) 20:02, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

Hi Sceptre, I understand where you are coming from, but Manx is used in the Isle of Man and by having Manx in this list it is helpful to those who don't know the Latin or English terms, and helps identify exactly what species the list refers to. Some people do only know the Manx names of some species on the Isle of Man, especially when it comes to plants. Thanks 78.86.130.185 (talk) 18:01, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
