– Per WP:NATURALDIS, WP:CONCISE, and WP:CONSISTENCY with all other articles in the category, and the rest of the breed articles (over 1,000), though I'm doing these last cleanup moves on a genus or subfamily basis. See numerous previous moves, all closing in favor of natural vs. parenthetical disambiguation for such cases: Talk:Aspromonte goat#Requested move 07 November 2014, Talk:Teeswater sheep#Requested move 25 August 2014 (a large mass-RM), Talk:American Sable rabbit#Requested moves, Talk:Strasser pigeon#Requested moves, Talk:Corsican cattle#Requested moves, Talk:Flemish Giant rabbit#Requested moves, Talk:Dutch Landrace goat#Requested moves, and some individual ones, e.g. Talk:Bronze turkey#Requested move, Talk:West African Dwarf goat#Requested move, Talk:White Park cattle#Requested move, Talk:Australian Pit Game fowl#Requested move, etc. Also, the parenthetical style is primarily used for individual notable animals, e.g. Trigger (horse); its use for breeds is confusing (i.e., a type of disambiguation which introduces another ambiguity, and thus is a failure).  — SMcCandlish ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ʌ≼  23:20, 27 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

PS: Please do not get into disputation about whether the breed names themselves should be capitalized. That's the way the husbandry and livestock sources mostly do it and it's how it's done consistently here, just not capitalizing the species name added as natural disambiguation (except in the rare case it is actually part of the breed name, as is the case with American Quarter Horse and Norwegian Forest Cat). We're all aware that newspapers and such typically do not capitalize breed names. This is just a consistency cleanup RM, it is not an RfC about breed name capitalization.  — SMcCandlish ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ʌ≼  23:20, 27 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
