Topic is not needed. It is handled at both of the species' articles (giant panda and red panda) as well as the disambiguation (panda (disambiguation)). - UtherSRG (talk) 10:59, 22 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - eminently superfluous. --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 11:57, 22 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Agree it's redundant with the species articles. If there is any intersection discussion between the two in terms of characteristics, that can be handled in the respective species articles like we do for other species that share a name or similarity.

Delete Adding onto KoA's point, the respective Giant panda and Red panda articles already emphasize these species' distinct evolutionary history with Red panda#Phylogeny providing multiple phylogenetic trees to explain this point. BluePenguin18 🐧 ( 💬 ) 07:18, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
