Hi All,
Here's an interesting dilemma.....I've been creating external links to movie-clips on the Opus species-pages and found a clip (that I've already created and was going to link) that doesn't have a corresponding species in Opus. Would it be beneficial to add the link to the presumed (Clements or Sibley/Monroe?) species with some text explaining that it may be the same?
I think I will do so if only to seeing how the Opus works (....and won't be offended if anyone removes it!)
The clip is of Variable Goshawk (Accipiter hiogaster) and I've included the link on the Grey Goshawk (Accipiter novaehollandiae) page.
Look forward to your thoughts,
Tom
 
Hi Tom, I certainly think reference to it should be made on the Grey Goshawk article.
As for having separate articles on species outside our current SM list, I'm not so sure... I would have thought it would be o.k. but I'll await advice from others on here.
cheers,
Andy
