Evidentiary scope
The article rests on the RSC listing for Arcadian, RSC's definition of its Heirlooms category and the Kwik Seeds listing of the same line. Kwik Seeds is the shop RSC calls its other site (RSC, Hemp & Multipurpose). The listings give the sourcing as Delicorganic, Mantineia, 2005. They describe an open-pollination maintenance grow. They name no collector or farmer. They do not say where Delicorganic is based. The "kannàvi" identification is RSC's hedged suggestion. The conservation priority (Low) was entered when the page was created in March 2026; no rationale was recorded. Éloise 23:19, 16 September 2026 (+07)
Georeferencing
The listings name Mantineia. The coordinate entered at creation, 37.617, 22.393, lies near the hamlet of Milia in the Mantineia municipal unit, Arcadia regional unit (OpenStreetMap reverse lookup). It is now rounded to two decimal places, 37.62, 22.39, which is the precision the wiki's privacy policy calls for. The regional unit, Arcadia, stays in the province field; see Talk:RSC-GRC-RET-0119900001 for the same treatment of Rethymno. Éloise 23:19, 16 September 2026 (+07)
Editorial treatment
Conform pass of 16 September 2026. The article was compared with the current RSC listing and with the Kwik Seeds listing. It was rewritten so that each statement is attributed to one of them, with CS1 citations.
- Collector changed from
Angusto blank. The listings name Delicorganic as the source and do not name a collector. - Growth pattern
Columnarremoved: RSC reports "considerable lateral branching", which a columnar habit contradicts.Extensivebranching is kept. - Lead now opens with the descriptive name,
Arcadian 2005 IBL, as the infobox gives it. - Removed from the article: "a Greek grower" (the listings do not say where Delicorganic is based) and a doubled "the the".
- Image caption typo "Acadian" corrected.
- Kept as corpus entries:
DioeciousandOpen pollination; the latter follows the listing's open-pollination maintenance grow. PhotoperiodShort-dayand introgressionMinimalfollow the other RSC accessions; neither listing states them. Éloise 23:19, 16 September 2026 (+07)
Source discrepancies
- Aromas. RSC's summary: "Sour fruit, hashy, herbal, woody, earthy, some spiciness"; its prose: "mainly fruity, earthy herbal". Kwik Seeds' summary: "Earthy, woody, hashy, herbal, some spiciness"; its prose: "mainly earthy herbal".
- Effect. RSC: "euphoric, calming, focused, introspective, and creative". Kwik Seeds: the same without "euphoric".
- kannàvi. RSC: "may be representative". Kwik Seeds: "appears to be representative".
- Trade dates. Only RSC gives 1860s to 1920s for the smuggling trade.
- Only on RSC. The customer description of the effects and the phrase "Despite more recent selection for use as bud".
- Archived versions. The Wayback Machine holds 11 versions of the RSC listing, from March 2023 to May 2026. Nine were read; two returned no listing text. All give the 2005 Delicorganic sourcing. The March 2023 version matches the Kwik Seeds text except for the trade dates, which every RSC version gives. RSC then moved away from that wording:
- by October 2023, "the drug-type cannabis (subsp. indica)" and "Despite more recent selection for use as bud";
- by March 2025, "may be representative" in place of "appears to be representative", the sour-fruit summary, "euphoric" and the customer description.
- The archived versions add nothing to the article. Éloise 02:50, 17 September 2026 (+07)
Photographs
The infobox image is the photograph uploaded in March 2026. Its caption now says what it shows, a dried flower, and it has alt text. The gallery adds five more photographs from the RSC listing, uploaded under fair use at reduced resolution. The listing does not say where, when or by whom they were taken, so the captions say only what each image shows. Éloise 02:50, 17 September 2026 (+07)
Source collection
The original seeds were collected around Mantineia in 2005 and supplied by Delicorganic. That collection is now Arcadian General Population 2005, under the holder code DEL, and this page names it as its parent.
This page keeps the article and the description of the plants; the collection's page carries the sourcing, the date and the place. The seed RSC distributes comes from an open-pollination maintenance grow intended to preserve the full genetic diversity of the original accession, which is why this page remains a reproduction rather than the collection.
The coordinates moved to the collection, so the population holds one point on the map. The conservation priority of Low, entered when this page was created in March 2026, is left where it is; by the rule applied in this batch a rating describes the collected population, so it is a candidate to move to DEL-GRC-ARC-0120050001 when the ratings are next reviewed.

Descriptive name
The descriptive name now leads with the year and the holder's acronym: 2005 RSC Arcadian IBL, where it read Arcadian 2005 IBL. Éloïse ruled on 17 September 2026 that a reproduction's descriptive name should carry the year first and name the reproducer, and it is applied to every reproduction in this corpus.
The acronym is the holder's, the same code the accession ID carries. It does not assert who conducted the grow-out: these listings name nobody, and the rule was given for a line whose reproducer the listing does not state either.
The page title is the accession ID and is unchanged, so no link breaks. Earlier entries on this page that quote the old name are left as they were written: they record what was decided then. Éloise 05:18, 18 September 2026 (+07)
