Name[]

I've been thinking for a while now: there's no source that lists these birds as baptornis, none at all: I admit that I'm the one that labelled them with that name all those years back on Wikipedia because they looked to me like baptornis, what with their long necks, long bill with small, sharp teeth, stubby wings, and webbed feet. But nowhere does it say, out of the little information available on the character designs, that they're baptornis. The name given is "diving bird", according to this official artwork image: [1]

So with this in mind, what ought we to do? Do we keep the name given here, even though it may or may not be the right one...or do we rename the article as "diving bird" (and omit using the phrase "possibly baptornis")?--Macrauchenia (talk) 06:40, January 24, 2013 (UTC)
