Talk:Cephalopoda

Better title
Cephalopoda is a better title for the article of which this is about than that to which is was redirected, cephalopod. While cephalopod is used in the scientific literature in the causual sense it is not the scientific name of a specific group of animals. It has no taxonomic significance.

Cephalopoda, not cephalopod, is used in systematic designation. It is used in taxoboxes as the name of the class. It is just as easy to have redirected from Cephalopod to Cephalopoda as it was the other way around.

If Wikipedia is about enlightenment, then shouldn't be willing to stretch minds? Comments in pages like Article titles should be taken as suggestions, some worth while, not rules or directions.

I suspect the redirect from Cephalopoda to cephalopod was made by someone either taken in by conformity as perceived, or with little understanding of the subject, or both. J.H.McDonnell (talk) 16:34, 16 July 2012 (UTC)
