According to http://www.birdtours.co.uk/tripreports/sri-lanka/sri10/feb-03.htm (ref: Red-Backed Greater Flameback (stricklandi)) and http://wingsbirds.com/tours/srilanka.htm (ref: the recently split Crimson-backed Flameback,), the Sri Lankan species is a seperate species. Does it deserve a new page or should there just be an edit for the last paragraph --Preveen 13:05, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

I guess if there is sufficient information about it, a new page should be started. If most of the information is identical. Then a mention of the species should be added with a page added for the new species redirecting here. A photograph would be a great addition. Shyamal 13:13, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
