I noticed your recent "updated reference" edits. The reference you're updating is a journal article about LPSN. It is not LPSN itself, and the journal article doesn't support the claims about subdivisions that LPSN would support if it were actually cited. Plantdrew (talk) 19:59, 27 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
That is just bizarre. Catalogue of Life doesn't cite LPSN like that. See https://lpsn.dsmz.de/text/copyright. I guess 1a on the copyright pages offers some explanation about why they want to be cited like that, and 1b directly contradicts that. Taken together, I think they the are saying "if you think LPSN is a valuable resource and you mention it in a scientific publication, give us good citation metrics for this 2020 paper", and "if you repeat any taxonomic information from LPSN, cite the LPSN page for that taxon".
