- Keep, I found this source which I believe is notable:
- https://www.biotaxa.org/Phytotaxa/article/view/phytotaxa.296.1.1
- It is an academic journal article that addresses the topic in detail. The source is reliable because it was published in the peer-reviewed journal Phytotaxa, and the authors are affiliated with universities in Brazil. You can download the PDF and read the article in its entirety. I plan to add the source to the page and expand the article. Bwmdjeff (talk) 14:10, 9 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep, AfD isn't clean-up. Sources clearly exist. Staurogyne_bicolor, linking from the genus-article, is referenced. Staurogyne_elegans and Staurogyne_hirsuta also linking from this article, while not formally referenced, give a citation. Staurogyne_minarum has external links that might be helpful, while Staurogyne_sichuanica, also linked from this article, is referenced. None of the species articles are much more than stubs. A google search for Staurogyne produces an enormous number of hits for Staurogyne repens, which is apparently widely used in aquariums; so many hits it's hard to find anything else. But here is a reference to the genus in general [1] in efloras.org; here's the entry in theplantlist.org [2]; here's Kew's reference [3] it's rather hard to imagine that no "serious" textbooky references are available; there's certainly primary stuff too [4]. It'd be plain weird to delete this one with reference. Elemimele (talk) 13:56, 9 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep: Per WP:DINC and WP:HEY. Skeptical the nominator performed a WP:BEFORE check. Curbon7 (talk) 02:20, 10 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - @Fade258: maybe read up on ((More citations needed)) and try that next time. --awkwafaba (📥) 12:50, 10 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- @Awkwafaba:, Hi, Before I nominated this article for AFD there is no any refrences were present. All the refrences were added after the nomination for AFD. Don't worry wait for the closing of this discussion. Thank you ! Fade258 (talk) 12:56, 10 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- @Fade258: then you could use ((Unreferenced)). --awkwafaba (📥) 13:06, 10 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- @Awkwafaba:, sure for next time. Thank you ! Fade258 (talk) 13:11, 10 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
