Contested deletion

[edit]

This article should not be speedy deleted as being recently created, having no relevant page history and duplicating an existing English Wikipedia topic, because... (I wanted to spit the Spot-billed duck into two species: the Indian spot-billed duck and the Eastern (or Chinese) spot-billed duck. In making this split I was following the major authorities and bird taxonomy - which in this case all agree. To make this change I moved the existing article Spot-billed duck to Indian spot-billed duck, and then copied and pasted the text into the redirect Eastern spot-billed duck. I was editing the latter article when I found that I couldn't save my edits.) --Aa77zz (talk) 15:52, 25 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
