[edit] Budgerigar Society

Hi Carbidfischer

I have added a Cleanup Template to the Budgerigar Society page. I have list the reasons I have done this on the Talk page. This is a copy:

I have added a cleanup tag as: I can find no other easily acccessible reference to the Budgerigar Society by Google The original image on the page was one of an Alexandrine Parakeet, not a Budgerigar (which I have since corrected. I mention this as it has some small bearing towards the valadity of the article). I can find no reference of Budgerigars in Europe before the mid-19th century. Budgerigars may well have been discovered by Europeans before this time, however, it is almost impossible for news or examples of them to have arrived at the time this society is noted as having been formed.

I see you have made a lot of additions relating to Bavarian history. I suspect what you have written is true, but I think we (as readers) need some help in believing it for the above reasons.

Apparently I made a mistake in translation. Parakeet Society would be a better name for the society. The problem is that the society has not yet been subject of English language papers. Better look for Sittichgesellschaft on Google. -- Carbidfischer 21:15, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
