Trivia section[edit]

Why was the dispersal of the trivia section edit reverted in the article, @Scott McConnell:? The Manual of Style states that trivia sections are to be avoided, and there is a cleanup box in the trivia section requesting it to be relocated to proper sections, so why would it be necessary to revert the edit?

Viola stoneana Britton, was named for Witmer Stone, who first pointed out the species to Nathanial Lord Britton. I hope to get around to adding this to the article when I can find the time.Harry Meanwell (talk) 21:59, 4 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
