Lithornis
I notice that you have created species level pages for those listed on the Lithornis page. As the article falls under wp:paleontology along with wp:birds I'm not sure how we should handle differing opinions on species articles. I know that the wp:birds guidelines are to have a article for every species, however this runs into problems with extinct taxa. The general consensus in wp:paleo is that except in rare cases articles on extinct taxa known from fossils should only go down to genus level due to extreme scarcity on species level taxons, which result in articles that are restatements of the genus level info with only a couple of sentences that are unique. See how the genus articles are handled on Stegosaurus, Triceratops]] and Tomarctus. --Kevmin (talk) 06:05, 21 January 2010 (UTC)
