Bird Species Names
[edit]Tintin, bird names are capitalized at Wikipedia, in line with most taxonomic works on birds. Furthermore, changing names from the standard names for species (http://Worldbirdnames.org) likely will be reverted. Just to let you know. -- Kim van der Linde at venus 08:21, 26 April 2009 (UTC)

Could you go back through your edits and fix those? Thanks very much! --Kurt Shaped Box (talk) 20:44, 16 February 2013 (UTC)
