[edit] Capital Common Name
WP:BIRD applies to, dare I say, Birds. Not mammals. Consensus has been established time and again on the cats pages that common names are lowercase.Bugguyak (talk) 19:49, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
- I have not said that WP:BIRD applies to mammals. However, the logic that is laid out there is applicable to the naming of mammals, and, as such, can be followed. There have been decisions reached about specific cat pages to not follow WP:BIRD's logic, and I have stuck with that. But discussions on WP:Mammal have all failed to reach a consensus to make any change, and so making such a change is against the community, so I am reverting. - UtherSRG (talk) 22:23, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
- Sure, saying WP:BIRD applies to mammals and offering demonstrable authoritative sources to support your contention in discussions, that would be fantastic to have. No, what you've done is nothing like that (and for years now, you've not been able to do that), instead you've enforced WP:BIRD on mammal pages with reverts and nothing more than your stated personal fondness for the so-called logic of the WP:BIRD style. The community long ago reached consensus -- as referenced on WP:MOS -- and while they were trying to reach consensus, they fully took into account the WP:BIRD arguments that you've made. You were in those discussions, and your view wasn't accepted. The change I made simply was to go with the community's consensus and nothing more, even though you personally don't like it. But is it relevant whether one "likes" it? There is an answer to this question. Beyazid (talk) 00:17, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
- This is a distributed content dispute affecting a large number of articles. I recommend continuing all the discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Mammals#Capitalization re-visited. Thanks! BigBlueFish (talk) 23:49, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
