Welcome![edit]
Hello! I noticed your contributions and wanted to welcome you to the Wikipedia community. I hope you like it here and decide to stay.

Hello unregistered user,
Your edit to the Chenopodium spinescens article is interesting, but not correct. Please take the trouble to read the links in the welcome message, but also this page about citing sources.
You will notice that Plants of the World Online is given as a reference in the article. PoWO gives the family as Amaranthaceae.[1] If you think PoWO is wrong, you are welcome to advise Rafaël Govaerts of his mistake. Plants of the World Online and the Australian Plant Census are accepted sources of plant names in Wikipedia - in this case, they do not agree.
In the Taxonomy section of the C. spinescens article there is a discussion of the family issue.
I also noticed your edit on the template page. (Amaranthaceae and Chenopodiaceae are different families.) You cited a vicflora page, but C. spinescens is not listed by the Royal Botanic Gardens Victoria where it is given the name Rhagodia spinescens.
Having written this message, I do thank you for your contribution. If you are a botanist, your help here would be greatly valued and I hope you will make many more edits. Thousands of Wikipedia plant articles are "red-linked" and crying out for interested people to write articles about them.
(You are welcome to respond here, or on my talk page.) Gderrin (talk) 21:38, 25 March 2022 (UTC)
