::::{{Ping|Dicklyon}} Understood, but I strongly suspect it'll be a worm-can. The dogs project hate this idea with unleashed passion. When I moved some of "their" articles to names in this format because were already ambiguous and parenthetically disambiguated for no reason, they reflexively and dismissively reverted them all [[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Dogs#Requested moves|here]]. The blatantly self-contradictory nom wrote "Parenthetical disambiguation was used when natural disambiguation is not possible in ALL dog articles" then proposed moving every case like [[:Armant dog]] back to [[:Armant (dog)]], despite that being the exact opposite, and using parenthetical disambiguation when natural disambiguation {{em|was}} clearly possible and already being used. No one commented in that RM, hosted out of main talk space on their wikiproject page, except the project's own participants. I didn't see it in time to advertise it to [[WT:AT]], [[WP:NCFAUNA]] and [[WT:MOS]] where people with a more generalized view might have been interested in commenting. Someone may try to use that micro-consensus as evidentiary of something, but it was just a ''status quo ante'' reversion, not a discussion on the WT:AT merits, which would surely have stuck with natural disambiguation. Anyway, if at this point in time, anyone tried to move a [[:Beltex]]-like dog name, e.g., [[:Briard]] to [[:Briard dog]] with this sort of "pre-disambiguation" idea, it'd be a holy war. >;-) <span style="white-space:nowrap;font-family:'Trebuchet MS'"> — [[User:SMcCandlish|'''SMcCandlish''' ☺]] [[User talk:SMcCandlish|☏]] [[Special:Contributions/SMcCandlish|¢]] ≽<sup>ʌ</sup>ⱷ҅<sub>ᴥ</sub>ⱷ<sup>ʌ</sup>≼ </span> 09:06, 15 September 2014 (UTC)
*'''Oppose'''. Some of these might be reasonable moves, but they should be examined on a case by case basis, and not as a mass-move. While consistency is good... it ''can'' be taken too far (hmmm... perhaps WP:AT needs to address the issue of ''over-consistency''?) A consistent title format that works for dog articles may not work for sheep articles, and vise versa. Flexibility is required.

:Proud capitalized Chicken and Pigs one and all :)
:'''Oppose''' all parenthesis as unnecessary and in contravention to presentation of similar terms in other locations.
:However I disagree with the principle of rejecting mass moves. Wikipedia should operate on principles of consistency and mass moves are often the best way to consider the full implications of a proposed raft of changes.
