Requested move

[edit]
The following discussion is an archived discussion of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the proposal was move all to sentence case titles. Let me make it clear that in doing so I am not endorsing the requester's rationale that the current titles are "inappropriate capitalization", but rather to the support below and at the much larger discussion at WikiProject Tree of life. Basically, the upshot there is that reliable English sources vary on how to capitalize such titles but that sentence case is more common in sources, is leaned toward in our existing guidelines, that it would be good for us to have some consistency in how we title animal article titles and that, other than birds, which are to remain an exception, sentence case is leaned toward if we're going to go with one over the other.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 11:41, 6 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
