Should this not be at Red-billed Gull?

OK, I waited a day then moved it. If I did so in error, please sing out. Tannin 07:43, 17 Jan 2004 (UTC)

Precedent says you have to be right. I think I probably originated the capitalised -Bill, and it wasn't with any particular reason, more a matter of not having picked up the conventions. seglea 08:28, 17 Jan 2004 (UTC)

And spotting my talk entry without a watchlist to alert you wasn't easy, right? ;) Tannin

Vulnerable status
I reverted the infobox status from "vulnerable" back to "least concern" as the infobox relies on a single source for that criteria and using a status from a different organisation just for this species doesn't make sense. Of course it may actually qualify as "vulnerable" by their criteria too, but we should wait for them to say so before changing it in the infobox. Of course we could add a separate paragraph describing DOCs listing of it as vulnerable. And although the news reports were Oct 2014, I can only find a 2012 publication http://www.doc.govt.nz/Documents/science-and-technical/nztcs4entire.pdf that seems to be the source. --Tony Wills (talk) 10:39, 28 November 2014 (UTC)
