Yes, check out other articles about species, they are mostly under the scientific name, except very well know species. [[User:Kim van der Linde|Kim van der Linde]] 16:01, 23 September 2007 (CDT) | |||
I like this as a suggestion of what the biology naming convention should be. It places the (precise) scientific name first, which keeps biologists happy. But it includes a user-friendly common English name of the species in the title, which increases findability. I think this is an excellent compromise. --[[User:Larry Sanger|Larry Sanger]] 12:35, 23 October 2007 (CDT) |
