"Entire leaf"
editCan we please change this phrase in the section on leaf and leaflet shapes? In the column "Refers principally to" we have the term "entire leaf" used repeatedly, to mean the whole leaf. However, the term "entire leaf" already has a different meaning in botany: it means a leaf (or leaflet) with a smooth edge, without teeth or lobes – as dealt with in the very next section on leaf edges. Using the same term in two different senses can surely only cause confusion. I can see no reason why this column should not say "whole leaf" – or even better (as the section applies to both leaves and leaflets), "whole leaf or leaflet".

Done. To save space, I used "whole leaf". – Elizabeth (Eewilson) (tag or ping me) (talk) 22:49, 18 December 2022 (UTC)
