Selected species

[edit]

The list of "Selected species" is way way way too long. And not just because 90 percent of them are red-links. 100+ species as "selected"? Come on, this is wikipedia, not smilaxpedia. The list doesn`t serve any encyclopediac purposes. -- 58.188.96.131 (talk) 22:01, 24 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Well, we do this for most plant genera (probably a lot of non-plants too). The main debate I've heard about it is whether the lists should be on separate pages (such as List of Croton species), a subject about which I have no strong opinion one way or the other.
