Talk:Companion parrot

External Link to www.theafricangreyparrot.com
Removing link "theafricangreyparrot.com". User has been repeatedly adding this link to any and all parrot pages as if Wikipedia were an advertising forum. Has been adding similar links for a fishing website to all pages related to trout, and the same IP has been vandalizing other bird-related pages.

Watch for and recommend removing the link if it is reverted back. DrNixon 04:45, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

rename article to "Pet parrots"?
Does anybody actually use the term "companion parrot"? I don't know much about parrots but I would think the article is better served as "Pet parrots" or "Parrots as pets". Comments? Jason Quinn (talk) 21:18, 21 February 2011 (UTC)


 * A quick Google (and Google Scholar) search would suggest that the term 'companion parrot' is in fairly regular use - however, feel free to request a move if you think that your suggestions are more appropriate. I'm not particularly fussed either way. I will redirect 'Pet parrots' and 'Parrots as pets' here for the time being, as these are probably useful search terms... --Kurt Shaped Box (talk) 00:38, 1 March 2011 (UTC)


 * I think the redirect is perfectly sufficient. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 14:34, 9 June 2011 (UTC)

History
Could be nice to have a history section, I'm thinking of sailors, pirates and all sorts of other colourful stuff. FunkMonk (talk) 19:58, 2 August 2012 (UTC)

Style
While very informative, this article reads more like a “how-to” guide to parrot ownership than an encyclopedia entry. It should be edited for a more detached, impersonal tone. 2601:801:1:28E0:49D6:AAA8:E489:6C30 (talk) 20:34, 30 December 2023 (UTC)
