[edit] Redirect from grackle?

Are all Quiscalus grackles and all grackles Quiscalus? Because in that case grackle should redirect to Quiscalus. I just want to make sure that it wouldn't create any confusion before doing it. IronChris | (talk) 22:24, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

Of 10 species named as grackles, six are Quiscalus, so it's not a synonym. See the list at Icterid, esp. near the bottom. jimfbleak 04:52, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the clarification! IronChris | (talk) 05:33, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

But there is a redirect from grackle. What figures? 62.0.146.14 09:32, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

I fixed this by reinstating the article on grackles, and adding info there on the additional species. --ubiquity 15:30, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
