::* ''"Something chickens"'': SMcCandlish, you moved them all from "Something (chicken)" to "Something chicken", without any expertise. It is common, that, if there is a corresponding bantam breed to large fowl, it is mentioned within the article of the large fowl breed. The bantam breed title redirects there. In most of these cases it is not desirable to have a separate article on the bantam. That is, how writing poultry-articles works, it serves the reader and leads to a better quality of the articles. You don't have to rewrite the informations, that are relevant for both breeds. Those informations, that are interesting for readers not familiar with chicken. --[[User:PigeonIP|PigeonIP]] ([[User talk:PigeonIP|talk]]) 08:28, 26 September 2014 (UTC)

::::* Okay, then clearly we need "Foo Bantam" for any breed where there is only a bantam form, or for which there
::::::Articles are already about both. That is the situation at hand! There is no need to request merge (nor to split).
::::::And please think about the reader here! [[Sebright Bantams]] and [[Sebright (chicken)]] are both fine. The inexpedienced reader is likely not to know, what to expect with <code>Sebright Bantams</code>; <code>Sebright (chicken)</code> is better, on this one (WP:PRECISE) --[[User:PigeonIP|PigeonIP]] ([[User talk:PigeonIP|talk]]) 11:13, 26 September 2014 (UTC)
:::::::1) I {{em|know}}; I'm not the one who brought that up. I'm saying discussion of whether or not we {{em|want}} articles to be about both is off-topic here, so we need to stop going on about it <sigh>. 2) I {{em|am}}; [[Sebright Bantam]] (not plural) and [[Sebright chicken]] (not parenthetical) are both permissible names with regard to that breed, under our naming conventions. If the Sebright came in non-bantam form as well and the article covered both, it should be at [[Sebright chickens]] (plural) if they're treated as separate breeds with their own standards, or [[Sebright chicken]] if treated as variants of one breed with a single published standard. If "Chicken" is actually part of the formal breed name, it would be [[Sebright Chicken]]. If there were a notable individual hen named Sebright, her article would be [[Sebright (chicken)]]. This is not difficult. <span style="white-space:nowrap;font-family:'Trebuchet MS'"> — [[User:SMcCandlish|'''SMcCandlish''' ☺]] [[User talk:SMcCandlish|☏]] [[Special:Contributions/SMcCandlish|¢]] ≽<sup>ʌ</sup>ⱷ҅<sub>ᴥ</sub>ⱷ<sup>ʌ</sup>≼ </span> 11:28, 26 September 2014 (UTC)
