 * Done. Hexagonal~commonswiki and Plantdrew, should Carpomya and its other species articles be moved as well? --BDD (talk) 15:53, 1 June 2015 (UTC)
 * , no moves to other existing articles are needed. I should have looked into this more throughly before I lent it my support (I just did a cursory check that the name existed, and assumed good faith). Carpomya wiedemanni is in fact the newer combination (not "old taxonomy"), and most (but not all) recent sources seem to accept placement in Carpomya. But the situation here is one of those subjective things in taxonomy where the phylogeny of the species in question can support either classification. However, if wiedemanni isn't placed in Carpomya, than "Carpomya pardalina" must be treated as Myiopardalis pardalina to be consistent with the phylogeny. Plantdrew (talk) 17:55, 1 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Huh. So was this a bad move? I'm interested in taxonomy but by no means an expert. I'm happy to help out with whatever here—just point me in the right direction. --BDD (talk) 18:01, 1 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Not a bad move, but it kind of makes a mess of things since all the databases used as references in this article are going with Carpomya. I'll try to get it sorted out. Basically, somebody named Norrbom published a phylogenetic study in 1997 and moved the two species I've mentioned to Carpomya. There's a book from 1999 with a chapter that (among other things) takes a position against Norrbom's moves to Carpomya (on what seem to me to be fairly good grounds, and again noting that this is all subjective; the science behind it can support either position). While he didn't write the chapter in question, Norrbom is the editor of the book, so presumably doesn't object to much to the opposing position. Plantdrew (talk) 18:25, 1 June 2015 (UTC)
