Please categorize the redirects you create. You can do it manually or with Capricorn, a user script made for this purpose. Sincerely —Alalch E. 10:08, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Also, Lutra lutra lutra is not an alternative scientific name relative to Eurasian otter, it is simply a scientific name (sans alternative). Lutra lutra lutra is an alternative scientific name to Lutra lutra, but Lutra lutra is not the target, as the article is named "Eurasian otter", so the Lutra lutra lutra is a redirect from the scientific name to the vernacular name, just like Lutra lutra is. —Alalch E. 10:28, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Black-billed magpie revert

Hi Grey Clownfish, welcome to Wikipedia! I wanted to give some extra context on my revert of your edit.

The primary issue with the edit is that only the lead was updated, but the corresponding section in the article was left as is. MOS:INTRO, the lead is just a summary of what's in the article and should match what has been stated and cited in the article.

For your edit, if you have a source corroborating the name differences, then absolutely update the article, but make sure that the Taxonomy section is update and cited first, then update the lead to match.

As a side note, since the claim is that they were all originally called black-billed Magpies you'll want to make sure you word that carefully to avoid too much confusion to readers about which species changed names.

Neoaves

Hi. I had never read before that Neoaves were called "typical birds". Do you have any reference where they are called that? Thanks in advance. --Ornithodiez (talk) 01:38, 7 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

They have that name in the IOC World Bird List. Grey Clownfish (talk) 03:03, 7 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
