Welcome[edit]

Hi, and welcome! Please take a look at Help:Vernacular names section, and please especially note that (I quote): "Note that as vernacular names are not an important part of Wikispecies, the vernacular names list in Wikispecies is only a summary; it is not intended to be a comprehensive listing of every local variant that has ever been used. Only include one name per language, which should generally be the standard name used in official publications in the relevant language (such as the IOC World Bird Names list, or the Botanical Society of Britain and Ireland plant list). Also note that English Wikipedia recently took a decision to decapitalise vernacular names, following newspaper conventions but in contradiction to most formal taxon list publications; in Wikispecies Vernacular names lists, the English name should be capitalised in accord with formal publications (i.e., Sun Bear, not Sun bear or sun bear)."

Will do. Sorry!

No worries – and the "formatted for usability" part is very good. Happy editing! –Tommy Kronkvist (talk), 22:52, 1 July 2018 (UTC).[reply]
