any effort to merge entries on populations that simply have different names in different places. The source is generally useful for data on varieties that are described and distinguished in reliable secondary sources, but it does not itself establish that they are distinct or notable, nor how to classify them. DAD-IS's problems carry over to other databases that rely on it, such as the Global
Databank for Animal Genetic Resources. Example of problems include recording extinct breeds as still extant and vice versa, listing breeds as "endangered" when they're simply not common in a particular country, and accepting gross over-reporting of breeds (e.g. almost 200 horse "breeds" in Germany alone).

Figtwit's Fancy of Ramsey Gyatso), it would be appropriate to also include the longer name in the dog's article, e.g. in the lead and/or infobox, as well as perhaps in a discussion of the registry and its best-known grand champion show dogs. If the dog had to be distinguished from something else called Figwit's Fancy, use the article title "Figwit's Fancy (dog)". If there were two dogs commonly known by this name, disambiguate further, e.g. "Figwit's Fancy (poodle)".

such as "var." or "complex" (though the names these terms refer to are sometimes capitalized). Do not apply any sub-field's peculiar stylistic conventions outside of articles in that category if they conflict with the general rules. Scientific names can be complicated, especially for cultivated plants. For complex cases, refer to relevant specialist academic sources, while for vernacular naming, follow generalist sources on
English-language usage (especially, do not capitalize as a form of emphasis).
618:; they will not be understood by many readers who are neither biologists nor Latin students. In botany, there can be up to five taxonomic ranks below the rank of species, all conventionally named in Latin: "subspecies" (which is spelled the same in English), "varietas", "subvarietas", "forma", and "subforma". There is also an uncommon one immediately above species and below sub-genus, "sectio". In practice, these are usually abbreviated (and never italicized) in names;
3566:), care must be taken in articles to distinguish between the feral or landrace populations (not capitalized except for proper names like "English") versus the controlled, standardized populations (capitalized), and to not confuse the respective facts about them, which may significantly differ. Treat them distinctly in a "History" section, in different sections, or (rarely) even in different articles if both the landrace and the standardized breed are independently
5105:(ICN) preface states of italicization of order and family: "The Code sets no binding standard in this respect, as typography is a matter of editorial style and tradition not of nomenclature." Most peer-reviewed scientific botanical publications do not italicize names above the rank of genus, and non-botanical scientific publications do not (except in virology; the ICTV adopted an italicization convention in the 1990s, which is ignored outside of that field).
4994:(usually a place name), so only a relative handful would remain lower case, a confusing consistency problem. Editors may not already know which ones are and are not based on proper names. These names are also official divisions in animal and plant competitive shows put on by such organizations, and ultimately are the titles of publications, in the form of breed and cultivar standards, and registered certifications of compliance with those standards.
3602:"Traditional breed" or "old variety" are often used synonymously with "natural breed", but also used to distinguish a traditional, early, more natural version of a breed from a dominant newer breed standard with markedly different traits. Capitalize "Traditional", "Old", or a similar term only in the name of a variant that has been standardized as a separate breed or sub-breed (which may vary by registry). Examples include the

2861:.

When editing an article that mixes viral and other topics, use the italicization and capitalization conventions of the non-viral topic, as this increases site-wide consistency and is less jarring for readers (e.g., in an article on cattle health, use the ICZN not ICTV style).

In taxonomy, using parentheses (round brackets) around an author's name is not a typographic whim; it indicates that a scientific name has been derived from a taxon described by that author, but the name has since been changed (e.g. the species has been moved to a different genus).
