This navlist is basically obsolete, relying on a taxonomic attempt to force all eukaryotes into 8 "supergroups", something that quickly came to be seen as artificial, creating paraphyletic groupings. We shouldn't be propagating this in what is apparently 1000 places across Wikipedia. Chiswick Chap ( talk) 15:36, 18 April 2023 (UTC) reply

These nav templates here should be regrouped, just like {{ Opisthokont protists}} was added in 2016, maybe Diaphoretickes recently identified as monophyletic couled group here? -- Htmlzycq ( talk) 15:05, 20 April 2023 (UTC) reply

That one is actually a clade, unlike a lot of the other stuff which needs to be consigned to the bin marked " R". The problem for this navlist is that the 8 "supergroups" have been replaced by many smaller clades, the Diaphoretickes and the Amorphea being the two large exceptions.

That should remove the paraphyletic group like {{ Excavata}}, Replace with monophyletic group like Diaphoretickes and Amorphea only.-- Htmlzycq ( talk) 08:16, 21 April 2023 (UTC) reply

We don't have subsidiary navboxes for Diaphoretickes and Amorphea (just ordinary articles). I'll put them in as placeholders for now. Also, "Hacrobia" is also probably paraphyletic. Chiswick Chap ( talk) 08:45, 21 April 2023 (UTC) reply
