Category talk:Canines

Rename to Category:Dogs
It's simple, categories should have simple names as they are meant to aid in navigation. Dogs is much simpler than canines and should therefore be renamed to it.

Support

 * 1) Per this proposal and my comments on the two TPPS like this.
 * 2) Per proposal.
 * 3) Per proposal
 * 4) "Canines" could also refer to your teeth as well.
 * 5) Per Proposal.
 * 6) Per all.
 * 7) - Simpler is better. "Dog" can also be used to refer to the whole Canidae family (like how "cats" is used as am umbrella term as well as to refer to the domestic species), and either way, no one's gonna go splitting hairs about it around a Mario wiki.
 * 8) Per all.
 * 9) Per the above
 * 10) The animals Time Turner mentioned still qualify as dogs. People refer lions, tigers, mountain lions, bobcats, and lynxes as cats, so I'm sure the same applies to how wolves, foxes, coyotes, jackals, and raccoon dogs as dogs.

Oppose

 * 1) This is silly. "Canine" doesn't refer exclusively to dogs; it's a name for an entire group of animal. Dogs, wolves, foxes, coyotes, jackals, and others are all part of the canine family, and our wiki uses this category accordingly. If we change this name, we're gonna have some problems with categorization.
 * 2) Per Time Turner.
 * 3) Per GD. Are wolves called dogs? Of course not!

Comments
@Supporters: You do realize that if you move this, you'll have to make Category:Foxes, Category:Wolves, etc.?--
 * Isn't "dog" an umbrella term for all of these animals though? If I'm wrong, then the Magic School Bus lied to me for once. 18:34, 9 September 2013 (EDT)
