Talk:List of birds of Sri Lanka

Merge of List of resident birds of Sri Lanka
There has been a suggestion that List of resident birds of Sri Lanka be merged into this list with some kind of symbol or icon to indicate resident birds. Anybody have a problem with this? Any volunteers? --  :- ) Don 01:17, 31 July 2012 (UTC)


 * Obviously makes sense since the resident list is just an edited version of the full list. List of birds of Thailand is an example of a list which shows status of species.  Jimfbleak -  talk to me?  06:24, 31 July 2012 (UTC)


 * That is a nice looking list, but a lot of work. Also has section titles which this article need also. --  :- ) Don 15:08, 31 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Might as well steal their format(it looks nice), why do more work than necessay. Do we need to get User:Charlirox on board? We will need a sandbox, or should we just thrash through this article? --  :- ) Don  15:15, 31 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Well, he's an active editor, so might be just as well. All we need to do is add "resident" or something similar after the appropriate species. (Winter visitor/summer visitor/accidental and the like could be added later, but that's not relevant to the merge.  Jimfbleak -  talk to me?  15:42, 31 July 2012 (UTC)
 * The templates for all the bird already exist, just fill in the blanks. Piece of cake. Check it out. --  :- ) Don  16:11, 31 July 2012 (UTC)
 * I lied. Some species have templates already.  I have done 3, but have much real work to do today.  Placed construction template.  I hope Charlirox does not freak. --  :- ) Don  16:38, 31 July 2012 (UTC)
