other words in the name are not capitalized. Capitalizing the first letter (regardless of whether it is a proper noun) would be consistent with how the list was formatted after the consensus was reached. It was later changed to use small letters for the first letter of each name unless it was a proper noun, for the reason that otherwise it wouldn't be obvious whether the capitalization was due to sentence case or due to being a proper noun, a rationale that is not in accordance with any guideline I am aware of. Capitalizing the first letter of each element would also be consistent with the formatting of primate featured lists, and with other lists of species within mammal orders. So I am not sure why some IPs want to use a different format for this list. If there is a good reason, please explain. Otherwise, I will revert to capitalizing the first letters.

French fries." Is this really necessary on an article about a list of primates? Before that IP editor's work, the pictures mainly consisted of the scientific name of the organism pictured and there was only one picture per animal. There were no captions reading things such as, "this gorilla doesn't look happy." In addition to this, the article contains text and pictures on the top half, and an entire half on the bottom wit just pictures on both sides, which are mainly the original pictures. How should this be fixed? Should the article be reverted back to the original page or should It be edited to encompass some of the less outrageous of the IP editor's captions?

be a few genera where more than one photo could be appropriate, e.g., large diverse genera such as guenons and macaques). But right now the article is a mess. We do not need multiple orangutan or gorilla photos, popular as those genera are, since the extra photos do illustrate anything relevant to this list. This list is not a repository for primate photo - we have Commons for that.

The article should be reverted to the original page. Some of the new additional photos could be added to or replace the original ones, especially where we do not have a photo of a genus or where a better photo of a particular genus is available (not that every genus needs a photo here, and there may

Over the past few weeks, an IP editor (139.0.212.61) has been adding a large amount of extra pictures, mainly with captions which seem unnecessary. For example, one image showing a table of humans eating is captioned with, "Humans are the only primates to eat ice cream, hamburgers, potato chips and

I think the first letter of each species name should be capitalized. This would be consistent with the consensus on fauna names from a few years ago to use sentence case, and with MOS. Capitalizing the first letter of a list element does not conflict with sentence case, since the first letters of

I posted this 2 weeks ago and so far there have been no objections. Before I proceed, does anyone have policy-based reasons why (excepting proper nouns) we should not follow the standard format of capitalizing the first letter of the list element (and not capitalizing elsewhere)?
