- 21:0421:04, 10 February 2016 diff hist −1 Coffea berries changed to drupes in photo caption. Please see pg. 466 of "An annotated taxonomic conspectus of the genus Coffea (Rubiaceae)" referring to the fruit as an "indehiscent drupe," which was an update from the previous description as a "berry."
- 20:3420:34, 10 February 2016 diff hist −31 Coffea See pg. 166 of the taxonomic article referenced for coffee. The "updated" description refers to it as an "indehiscent drupe." It is incorrect to say coffee fruit looks like a drupe. It IS a drupe.
- 20:2620:26, 10 February 2016 diff hist −502 Berry (botany) See pg. 166 of the article referenced for coffee. The "updated" description refers to it as an "indehiscent drupe," not a berry. While berry is sometimes used as a shorthand for epigynous berry, coffee is not a botanical berry by any definition.

- 18:3818:38, 10 February 2016 diff hist −32 Coffee Berries changed to drupes. Referring to coffee drupes as "berries" is taxonomically incorrect. Coffee fruit results from an inferior ovary and contains a hard endocarp, making it a drupe, or arguably an epigynous berry due to the multiple seeds.
- 18:0018:00, 10 February 2016 diff hist +1 Berry (botany) Caption under image of coffee fruit changed to reflect that it is not a botanical berry. This could also have been replaced with "fruit" or "drupes," but "Cherries" is the widely accepted usage.
- 17:4817:48, 10 February 2016 diff hist −44 Berry (botany) Removed coffee from list of botanical berries. Coffee fruit is derived from an inferior ovary and has a hard endocarp, making it a taxonomically a drupe (or arguably an epigynous berry), but not a botanical berry.
