 * Keep Redundant, except for the listing of content by continent is generally useful. Redundancy is not a bad thing, and in this case, the specific nature is unique and informative enough that it's acceptable. FrozenPurpleCube 15:58, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

 * Keep Taxonomical classification for List of Australian monotremes and marsupials is based on the Australian publication of Menkhorst and Knight. Where as list of monotremes and marsupials is based on the US publication Gardner and Groves. If the two list where to be merge such that the work of Menkhorst and Knight was used to replace the work Gardner and Groves would we not be casting dispersions on the validity of Gardner and Groves. To use solely Gardner and Groves we'd be making the same dispersions on the work Menkhorst and Knight. Gnangarra 06:57, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Groves, the author of the Australian portion in MSW3, lives and works in Australia, but was born in England. He has nothing to do with America. MSW3 is the definitive work. - UtherSRG (talk) 12:50, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

 * Keep Exactly how is Didelphimorphia redundant to a list of Australian monotremes and marsupials? Because of Australia's extraordinarily unique natural history of mammals, deleting this list would simply require an urgent request to create it.  KP Botany 19:51, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
