Shouldn't the first item on this page be a link to 'European Starling'?[edit]

I came to Wikipedia looking for information on what I (and I imagine most English-speaking people) call the 'Starling', i.e. the species Sturna vulgaris. I typed 'Starling' into the search box and was brought to this disambiguation page. It has no link to 'European Starling', only to the 'Starling' (Sturna family) page. As a result it took me a while to realise there was a page for Sturna vulgaris and to find it. Shouldn't there be a link to 'European Starling' as the first item listed on this disambiguation page?

Perhaps the link to 'Starling' (Sturna family) should also be removed, since it is easily found from the opening lines of the 'European Starling' page. I know this may come across as parochial with respect to other Starling species, but I believe that most people looking for 'Starling' on the English-language Wikipedia will be looking for Sturna vulgaris, and as things stand they will find that difficult to find. 88.110.154.134 (talk) 09:39, 19 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
