[edit] What's with the "Elephant" capitalization fetish?

Almost every elephant article in Wikipedia arbitrarily mixes capitalization of this word "elephant" as though sometimes it's a proper noun and sometimes it's not. Here's a hint: it's never a proper noun, because we're not talking about a person or place named "Elephant". You don't refer to your Dog and Cat, we don't speak German, we don't capitalize common nouns. Stop it, kids! --75.58.54.17 02:02, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Size

Exactly how big is this? 134.197.62.4 (talk) 18:00, 21 March 2008 (UTC)


Took this from WWF Malaysia www - Size Males grow to a height of less than 2.5 meters compared to other Asian elephants that grow to 3 meters. The Borneo Pygmy has a longer tail that reaches almost to the ground and straighter tusks. Cavingliz (talk) 03:59, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
