Adjective section should be merged into noun section.
I do not believe that the adjective shows a word that is truly an adjective, rather than a noun used attributively. Moreover, the noun section lacks a definition like "an organism or object with a blue tail", which is precisely the sense claimed by the adjective section.
Is this page used for merging of sections of the same entry, in the same language? DCDuring (talk) 13:59, 31 August 2020 (UTC)
- Yes. the listed derived birdnames are actually compounds blue + tail + X, as becomes obvious in German, e.g. Blauschwanz-Fruchttaube, for which nobody would create an adjective entry. Fay Freak (talk) 14:05, 31 August 2020 (UTC)
