I think the natural reservoir section is currently too long and verbose. It contains seven paragraphs which in my opinion can be trimmed so that essential facts remains, such as: what is the the natural reservoir species, how do scientists know that it is the reservoir (i.e. presence of antibodies

Knowledge has its own style guide that covers the usage of punctuation marks. It does not necessarily follow any particular external authority, and is intended for more broad readership than the specialist literature. Redirect pages can serve to link variations so that they lead to the same article.

It's about typography, not spelling; no special case or exception is needed for viruses, and what you're trying to do would just result in a style conflict that would impair readability, since in WP style we distinguish the grammatical roles of hyphens and dashes, whereas some other styles such as

Using a dash reduces the accuracy of the article, so even if the article is moved to the dash, it will be necessary to to move it back to the hyphen in order to improve the quality of the article. And WP:MOS makes no mention of instances such as this, which is why it should be amended.

I don't think that it strictly applies here, as this isn't a generic suffix that has been added by editors, as all the examples there seem to be, but rather a proper taxonomical name.
182: 522: 414: 1218: 896: 459: 228: 463: 55: 1040:– the en dash for a suffix on a multi-word compound is WP style. There should be no confusion what it indicates, or that other styles might render it as a hyphen. 1458: 1264: 974: 622: 1057:– well, it was a 20th-century invention of Chicago MOS, and I don't mind it (though others might object).
