Barbel (fish species)
relevant information was merged into the Barbus barbus (common name Barbel) article. Links checked and the only remaining links to this page are talk page comments from other editors that I'm not sure if it's appropriate to modify. I've added my own additions to those talk pages pointing to the new locations. Neil916 15:23, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Found many species of Barbel (mostly Barbus genus) - suggest not to delete for now - page acts as common name disambiguation now. Will see what to do about species found (no articles as yet). Genus Barbus page needs updating. Work in progress.HappyVR 21:29, 28 June 2006 (UTC)


 * Do we need two disambiguation pages for Barbel? There already is a Barbel (disambiguation) page, shouldn't the common name disambiguation just be added there?  Neil916 21:38, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
 * There's a lot of barbel species that may or may not get articles eventually - I think the 'barbel' as a fish type deserves it's own article - though these species really should be mentioned at the genus barbus article they aren't (yet).HappyVR 21:53, 28 June 2006 (UTC)


 * I'd like to withdraw my nomination for deletion of this article for now. Neil916 23:23, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

It doesn't look like I properly nominated it anyway. :(  Oh well, no harm, no foul. Neil916 23:30, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
