243:, I am increasingly convinced that all species level articles should follow their Latin names, with redirects for common names. I find DJLayton4's argument for plant articles convincing, and I believe we should keep the MOS as simple as possible. Going with Latin names is the only way to achieve this. Parentheses are ugly, cause layout and rendering difficulties, and break up prose visually. I think we should abandon them entirely for Latin names, not just the first line. However, my strongest belief is that we should not create yet another exception for the first line, so what I am "voting" for here is consistency between the first line and every other instance of a binomial, and I believe this is most achievable with the comma. I hold this opinion in spite of parentheses being standard in abstracts of peer-reviewed publications. I think Knowledge (XXG) can do better, and we may just wish to drop the apologetic parentheses entirely. Latin names are nothing to be ashamed of. 262:, they're going to quickly give up. This is an encyclopedia, not a scientific journal!! As for the comment that parentheses are "apologetic", that seems a bit silly. It's just a way of separating out information that may or may not be of particular use to the reader. For those who are interested in and knowledgable about scientific names, it gives more information. For those who haven't a clue -- and have no interest in learning more about them -- that's ok too. Why FORCE people to deal with scientific names just because some think parenthese are "ugly"! As a for-instance, I'm NOT a botanist. However, I am interested in learning more about plants -- and I find the botany section of Knowledge (XXG) very difficult to use. I can seldom find the articles I'm really looking for, because I don't know enough about the taxonomy of plants to know even which genera of plants I should be looking in! Just an alternative viewpoint... 1285:, there's unfortunately a fair scattering of errors in the list avibase generates. It had in e.g. California Quail and Northern Bobwhite, not even tagged as introductions, yet I can't find any evidence that either species had been introduced to Morocco; it also had e.g. Painted Snipe, which again isn't even listed as an accidental in Morocco by BWPC and strikes me as a very unlikely candidate for turning up there too. I removed those altogether as unsupported. There's several other species included which aren't listed by BWPC, but which I left in as they are potential vagrants which could have been recorded since BWPC came out; these need to be double-checked against recent publications of the Moroccan Rare Birds Committee (will do later). Also a very large number (close to 100 in just the non-passerines) were not tagged as accidentals by avibase, but which are so by BWPC. - 594:. Google is unable to find a source, no ref I have ever come across mentions such a taxon, and altogether I find the idea of turkeys in Japan biogeographically as absurd as post-Paleogene hummingbirds in Europe. Apparently some lapsus or misunderstanding, but what is it based upon? People don't just so invent taxa that are taxonomically possible but not systematically... usually, they'd make mistakes like capitalizing the species name or ending everyting with "-us"... the user in question has spent an inordinate amount of time to create redlinks (which I will prune away as is probably SOP for such lists. At least the sp indet's. We have these taxa as redlinks on the genus pages, so the list should not be a sea of red but only linked when the pages become available) 1028:
journals favouring capitalised common names. Interestingly, and for no reason I can explain, the leading tropical fish magazine in the US forbids capital letters for common names while the leading magazine in the UK prefers them! So maybe it isn't so simple. Anyway, the bottom line would seem to me to be simple enough: in ornithology, there's a tradition of using capitalised common names and those common names have been agreed among workers in the field. I don't have any issues with this. But this is *absolutely* not the case in most other animal groups, and the edit you made is entirely what I was hoping for: a statement that what goes for birds *does not automatically* go other groups. So thanks! Neale

create the articles as redirects and post a to-do list here of "redirected monotypic genera to check". The worst problems seem to arise when the bot does things that might cause problems without alerting anybody or that require people to check through thousands of new articles to find a small subset with potential problems. The solution is (sorry to pile on) consulting beforehand and maybe switching the bot to unproblematic tasks after the first few dozen or few hundred edits of a new type; that way people can alert you to problems while there are only a few instances.
217:, and does not actually state the Psittacinae subfamily. I'm wondering about this: the resource I linked to is very reputable and informative, but there seems to be a bit of a conflict with the article. It seems that, at the very least, a bit more explanation on the taxonomic groups this bird belongs to would be well-placed (the article is featured, after all). Or maybe I'm just not reading this right, since birds are not my field of expertise (but I find them very interesting). 1214:, I thought using his own bot. However other lists (including Spain) were done manually by me - they are the ones listed on my user page, and they shouldn't be too bad in terms of nomenclature since I changed the Avibase names - they certainly shouldn't be deleted. I also substantially fixed Thailand and Kenya . The best way to correct the names for countries outside the Americas would presumably be to use a bot, but I have the computing skills of an ant, so I can't do it. 31: 966:). Do you have any ICZN rules (or similar) that indicate that the common names in Mammal Species of the World are of the same legal standing as the binomial scientific names? I admit to being an invertebrate taxonomist, and the species I have named are never likely to get common names, but still, I'm operating from my experience of the scientific process where common names are never used nor defined. Cheers, Neale 2484:
which begin with the letter T so by the time it's finished, I imagine there will be fewer than 200 articles left outstanding. Given the high number of active contributors of bird-related material, we ought to be able to complete this task easily - how about we set ourselves a little target of having them all done by the end of the year?
2893:
Can the bot be held? It has a number of problems: monotypic genera, nonstandard IUCN link code, "habitat destruction", not using italics in genus taxoboxes, nonstandard use of markup in synonyms section, entirely wrong and indiscriminate use of parentheses in synonyms section. These NEED to be fixed,

There is a lot of drive-by stubbing. Length of article is only one criterion. For example, genus articles are often short because additions would tend to be more relevant to the family or species level. If I feel that an article has been stubbed purely on length, invariably by an editor unfamiliar to

Uther -- My reading of the Mammal Species of the World page suggests that the common names are merely recommendations for simplicity. Similar projects exist on Fishbase, Cephbase, etc. But such names have no standing in scientific nomenclature. The ICZN has no rules for enforcing common names, since,
3194:
On monotypic genera, Polbot really needs to know what's in a genus when it creates the article. Maybe one of the suggestions I left at your talk page will work. If not, I recommend posting a to-do list here of "monotypic general from the IUCN that possibly should be redirects". Or, maybe as good,

On the long lists of countries, I was just whingeing (sp?). It's better to have the information than not have it, and eventually humans with range maps may be able to improve on those lists where possible. I mentioned the importance of distinguishing between vagrancy and regular occurrence at your

First off, let me admit my limitations: I'm just a computer programmer who thinks birds are pretty. I'm not an ornithologist -- I'm embarrassed to admit I haven't had a formal biology class of any sort since high school. I absolutely need the advice from you experts to get these new stubs right. For

While I agree with the objections to some of the side issues you raised, Neale, I've also complied with your request. We at WP Birds are not setting a standard for all fauna articles. Any such thing would have to be decided by a wider discussion (which I guess is going on, at least piecemeal). So

is actually doing quite good work - I have gone through almost 100 stubs now, and this is the first real mistake. Of course the bot cannot know whether leucura or leucurus is correct; I suspect it simply checked whether L.leucura was already created and since it was not there, created a stub for the

My real point is that while some here are capable of making their own decisions on these questions based on the facts, I don't have the expertise or the library. So I'm going to go back to the HBW taxonomy for consistency, and if the question ever gets settled the other way, someone will just have

Thank you so, so much for adding the quotes. I was procrastinating like there would be no tomorrow. (One thing - please use the quote template next time you put up quotes.) I think we're ready - let's let everyone look it over and then I'll make an announcement. Any help with the announcement would

For monotypic genera, I could make them redirects to the species articles. The reason I didn't is that I don't know whether the IUCN list is correct for birds are not. I wouldn't want to make a genus a redirect to a species if there's another species in the genus I don't know about. Do you think I

Polbot currently references a "Fauna of X country" category in each endemic species (and only in endemic species). Most countries have such a category, but some do not. Some have a more specific "Birds of X country" category, and I wouldn't be surprised if some have even more specific categories.

Under the task list (at the bottom of the project page), I've added a list of the bird genera for which articles do not yet exist. I've used the Clements list as my source - and the good news is that we only have about 10% of the c.2100 genera left to do (Polbot is currently working through those

Hello Jerry. I took a look through some journals. Some, like Journal of Zoology, explicitly forbid capitals of common names completely. Others, like Copeia, insist on them where *recognised* common names exist. The split seems (at my first pass) to be between the US and everyone else, with the US
296:
Ah! I thought your comment "I think we should abandon them entirely for Latin names, not just the first line." referred to the COMMON NAME, not the parentheses! Sorry about that...Ā :) However, I DO think it's okay to start the article with the common name(s), followed by the scientific names.

for FA-factory genus articles. While I don't plan to stop writing genus articles, I do see his point and I've been thinking about redoing this article for awhile. As the article obviously falls under the purview of both of our Projects, I thought I'd put the word out here too. Anyone who can help
2878:
And while I'm at it, my main objection to categories of birds by country is the long lists of country names you get. However, Polbot is creating such lists in "prose". I don't feel that a list of 38 African country names in alphabetical order (Black-bellied Bustard) is useful to the readerā€”but

In my experience, usage tends to vary somewhat according to the species being described, with 'bill' used for species where it is smaller and/or softer (e.g. warblers, ducks), and 'beak' for species where it is larger and/or harder (e.g. raptors, herons). I'd be inclined to leave it open and not

Polbot adds the BirdTalk template to talk pages, and classifies them all as stubs. They're probably all low priority (since they didn't previously have articles), but I'm just not qualified to make that sort of a determination. Should Polbot default these all to low priority, or just leave that

I'm afraid I have to disagree with Spamsara -- I think changing all references to the scientific name is a HORRIBLE idea. And that's despite the fact that I'm a scientist. Most people who use Knowledge (XXG) as a reference are probably not going to be scientists. They may not know much about

This is also especially a problem for the auto-generated lists for countries outside N America. AFAIK, the lists prior to the autogeneration are more or less OK, and I've substantially cleaned up Thailand and Kenya since, but the fact remains that most of the lists use US names and spelling

On problems like "in the ] family", Polbot might be able to change it to "in the ] family automatically. If it keeps a record of what families it did that with, you or someone can check that the substitutions are okay, or maybe you can tell it the correct family names

says re: Morocco, a number of species on the Avibase list have never been recorded in The Gambia, or species have been recorded in the country but aren't on the list. So I'm not sure how reliable that information is. Maybe it's better for certain parts of the world.

The portal is officially up and running. I have it set to update automatically for next week and the week after that. Any help, as always, is welcome, as are comments. Maybe we can have a portal peer review in the near future, once it has been up for a little while.

I'm busting my gut on it. The wretched article is already 54k long and has 60 refs (it will probably have twice as many refs when I've finished) and is maybe two weeks off being peer-reviewable. Concievably it could be featured by the begining of June.

Don't let the presence of experts fool you. Some of us are acting like experts without ever taking a biology course past high school, and have no opinion at all on whether (*looks up article*) the scrubwrens and gerygones belong in Pardalotidae.
1536:. I have to say that a lot of these articles look on the long side to be stubs at all, though; it might be worth the the WPJ having a discussion about localised stub criteria, especially if you're also doing 1.0-style article assessements. 1191:(abominations like Gray Heron) use names that suggest the US subspecies (White-winged Scoter, Red Crossbill on European lists) and don't recognise several splits (Common Scoter doesn't appear on the European autolists, but Black Scoter does) 1109:"List of the birds of country x" (taking into account the comments made in the previous discussion section) that we could eliminate the "Birds of country x" category as being redundant. The list, after all, would give far more information. 1546:
We might want to compare non-stub articles of the same level (order, family...) to draw up a list of minimum topics, like the evolving consensus what makes a species article a nonstub. Then the articles can be worked over rather routinely.
