[edit] Wild Buckwheat

Is Eriogonum wild buckwheat, or is Fallopia Convolvulus? There's inconsistency between the Eriogonum and Wild Buckwheat pages Rojomoke (talk) 02:16, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

Its my understanding that Eriogonum is a native North American plant and F convolvulus is native to Eurasia and African. Perhaps the inconsistency could be remedied by the addition of a disambiguation statement with link to the other article. I would wonder also if perhaps the name of the Wild Buckwheat article should be changed to the scientific name of the plant; they're in the process of changing all these articles to scientific names instead of common names.Trilobitealive (talk) 03:00, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

I did a disambiguation statement for lead in to both the articles but didn't change the other article name. You might want to do so and make Wild Buckwheat into a disambiguation page.Trilobitealive (talk) 03:15, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
