Split

Authorities that recognize the split include the latest versions from the African Bird Club; Handbook of the Birds of the World, Birdlife; the Commission internationale pour les noms français des oiseaux; Clements; Howard and Moore; the IOC; Sibley and Monroe (all those according to avibase); the IUCN; Zimmerman, Turner and Pearson's field guide for Kenya; and Ferguson-Lees and Christie's Raptors of the World. I don't know who keeps them lumped. The names proposed are the IOC's names, the standard for WP:Bird. —JerryFriedman (Talk) 04:14, 31 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Seems fine, since all those authorities recognise the split. —innotata 16:58, 2 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. Done in the absence of objections. —JerryFriedman (Talk) 23:54, 2 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
