[edit] De-linking newly elevated species
Most of the newly elevated species (as per Rasmussen) do not have pages yet. I am delinking them and moving them the list of birds de-linked to the talk page for article creation. Prashanthns (talk) 14:51, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
- No reason to delink them. A redlink doesn't do anybody any harm and will encourage people to create the article. Yomanganitalk 15:11, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
- Agreed. Am de-redlinking based on this.Prashanthns (talk) 15:38, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Articles of Indian birds without a SEPARATE page yet
The ones blue-linked here have articles but are redirects to the previous higher taxon level of which they were considered sub-species. I have left others redlinked here so that the article may be created by anybody interested. All (except those marked with *) are previous sub-species elevated to full species by '"Rasmussen & Anderton. Not included in this list is Philippine Shrike Lanius cristatus lucionensis and Mount Victoria Babax Babax lanceolatus woodi which are still a sub-species.
- Ceylon Bay-Owl Phodilus assimilis
- Hume's Hawk-Owl Ninox obscura
- Malabar Barbet Megalaima malabarica
- Spot-breasted Pied Woodpecker Dendrocopos analis
- Pale Crag-Martin Ptyonoprogne obsoleta* (usually treated under Rock Martin Ptyonoprogne fuligula )
- Hill Swallow Hirundo domicola
- Malabar Woodshrike Tephrodornis sylvicola
- Andaman Bulbul Pycnonotus fuscoflavescens
- Square-tailed Black Bulbul Hypsipetes ganeesa
- Jerdon's Leafbird Chloropsis jerdoni
- Rufous Shrike Lanius phoenicuroides
- Indian Blackbird Turdus simillimus
- Black-throated Thrush Turdus atrogularis
- Nilgiri Blue Robin Myiomela major - Whether pages may be created with a stub and a see also linking to the present article on White-bellied Shortwing?
- White-bellied Blue Robin Myiomela albiventris - same issue as above. Both are genus revisions.
- Nicobar Jungle-flycatcher Rhinomyias nicobaricus
- Large Blue Flycatcher Cyornis magnirostris
- Himalayan Red-flanked Bush-Robin Tarsiger rufilatus
- Andaman Shama Copsychus albiventris
- Bhutan Laughingthrush Trochalopteron imbricatum - Any records from India? Is this still on the list?
- Grey-bellied Wren-babbler Spelaeornis reptatus
- Chin Hills Wren-babbler Spelaeornis oatesi
- Cachar Wedge-billed Babbler Sphenocichla roberti
- Manipur Fulvetta Alcippe manipurensis
- Indian Nuthatch Sitta castanea
- Sitta cinnamoventris - common name??
Many of these may not require separate article creation at all. Which is why, I have delinked some of them. Once articles for these are created, they can be wikified in the article and removed from the list. I thought of initially having this on my own user-sub-page, but then realized that others might be working on the same. If however, you feel this should not be here, leave a message here, and I will consider moving it to my sub-page. Please feel free to change/re-work list. Prashanthns (talk) 15:27, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
