I'm new (and also terribly vain), so I feel it only right to ask permission to create a page Corvine to redirect here. Is it unnecessary? I feel like I'm breaking the vanity page rules, even though it's just the meaning of my handle and no reflection on me. Feline redirects to Felidae, after all. Corvine 19:08, 6 Mar 2005 (UTC)

You don't need anyone's permission, although corvine doesn't appear in my Chambers dictionary ... jimfbleak 06:28, 7 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Corvine sounds like a word in the vein of lupine, canine, vulpine, and feline (wolf-like, dog-like, fox-like, and cat-like, respectively). Might not be in a dictionary, but so long as you know what sort of animal corvidae is, I think corvine would be apt to describe something that exhibits traits of crows/magpies/jays/etc. Jade Peat 04:20, 5 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
