[edit] Merge

I suggest merging both 'Gannet' and 'Booby' into 'Sulidae'. Any comments? Maias 03:10, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

It just seems that having three separate pages for the one family (even the one genus, according to some) is redundant. Maias 03:42, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

Definitely should not be merged. Genus and family articles should be kept separate. The articles will be expanded over time. Mgiganteus1 10:03, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
Hi Mgiganteus, is the above a formal policy of the Bird Project or a personal opinion? Further, does it apply to monogeneric families, which is at least arguable for the Sulidae? Maias 11:08, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
