Merge Proposal

This combines the same two species as the Gilliard's bird-of-paradise. I think that article should be merged into this one. 2601:441:5000:13E0:0:0:0:78AA (talk) 14:26, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I think that this was meant to be a proposal to merge King of Holland's bird-of-paradise to here, which I'd certainly support. Klbrain (talk) 14:35, 4 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Even better would be to merge all to List of hybrid birds-of-paradise, for short text, context, lack of independent notabilty and overlap. Klbrain (talk) 20:32, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Alexander vee (talk) 19:30, 31 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Alexander vee: why do you oppose? Remember that this is a discussion, not a vote. So at the moment I see no counter-arguments. Klbrain (talk) 21:37, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I could be wrong, but from the article, it shows that there are more specimens of the king of hollands bird of paradise, so the lyre tailed should be a section in the other page, effectively exactly the opposite. Alexander vee (talk) 20:20, 2 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
