replies: text: Feel free to state your position on the renaming proposal by beginning a new line in this section with *Support or *Oppose, then sign your comment with ~~~~. Since polling is not a substitute for discussion, please explain your reasons, taking into account Wikipedia's naming conventions.
* Oppose - the article is not just the list, it is an article on birds with an appended list (though admittedly the list takes up most of the article).  There is certainly scope for expanding the article.  Maybe one solution, if the length of the list makes the article unbalanced, is to fork the article by moving just the list itself to the proposed new title while leaving the rest of the article in situ.

message: It is true that willow ptarmigan and rock ptarmigan were tried introduced (several times), but it has consistently failed for both species. They were certainly not extirpated (meaning intended and targeted destruction), they simply died out. It is misleading to only state "Introduced", as most people will think they are still present in the Faroes. A published reference can be found in Søren Sørensen and Jens-Kjeld Jensen "Færøernes fugle: Fakta og Tal [Bird of the Faroe Islands: Facts and numbers]", 2015, ISBN:9789991877068.
With regard to black grouse, it is and always been non-existent in the Faroe Islands (at least in historical times). As a typical forest bird, it would also have difficulties in surviving in a place without forests (except for very small areas of planted trees). I do not know of any sources that indicate that introduction has been attempted. VillusFarus (talk) 14:17, 14 September 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: @VillusFarus: If they are not reported as present or historical in reliable sources, what you say makes sense to me. I don't see any reason for the above birds to be on the list. There might be a note in the text about introduced species that have since died out. Thanks, welcome to Wikipedia and I hope to see you around. SchreiberBike | ⌨  19:37, 14 September 2023 (UTC)
