[edit] Merge with Calico (fish)?
All of the content on the Calico (fish) page is redundant to the Shubunkin page. It is basically just a copy and paste of information found on another website (as I understand it), and serves no purpose other than to confuse and distract from the Shubunkin page. It should be merged.
- Oppose. Shubunkin and Calico are not the same. All Shubunkin goldfish are Calico, but some Calico are other breeds of goldfish too. Calico refers to a particular pattern of color and scales (or lack of) that can happen to a couple of breeds of goldfish. --Melanochromis 15:38, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
- Oppose. I agree with the above comment. Calico just refers to the color, while shubunkins have a specific body type and other variety characteristics. For example, a shubunkin is not at all the same kind of fish as a calico fantail. Oniongirl 20:22, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

- 2 opposes. Merging suggestion has been removed. --Melanochromis 09:13, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
