Fea's or Cape Verde Petrel (1 Viewer)

The entries for Pterodroma feae should be consolidated under "Cape Verde Petrel" as agreed by Howard and Moore and the 2007 edition of Clements, with suitable redirects from Fea's Petrel and Cape Verde Islands Petrel.

(The move function won't do this because it refuses to write over the existing tangle of redirects, so I need some help from a moderator).
 
Hi jt

I've deleted the Fea's Petrel Re-direct... see how you get on

I couldn't get a result searching for Cape Verde Islands Petrel

The Fea's Petrel redirect is (or was) fine, as long as it goes to the right place.

It's the redirect from "Cape Verde Petrel" that needs to be zapped because it's preventing me from moving the existing multiple-name entry. Hmm, I suppose I could just copy and paste the existing material from one page to another. Let me give that a try and see if I can sort this.
 
I think those things are ok to keep as long as they redirect to the right page. I know the move function automatically updates the links throughout opus, but since I had to copy and paste this by hand I might have broken something somewhere.
