Rename to Piglin (family)[]
Taxonomically, a "piglin" wouldn't be a species. Each type of piglin would be a species, especially since they cannot breed with one another, while subspecies can interbreed.
"Genus" would be more accurate, but to maintain more common parlance, I propose this be renamed to Piglin (family) because the article is about exactly that: the family of piglins. Amatulic (talk) 19:23, 27 August 2021 (UTC)
- I agree with you that it should be moved to Piglin (genus). However, I do not agree that it should be family since the term family has other meanings. Drour1234 (talk), 27 August 2021 (UTC)
- I prefer "family" because there is no need to introduce terms of biological taxonomy into article titles. "Family" is more generic and commonly used, and doesn't necessarily imply a position in a taxonomic hierarchy.
- Also, most of these piglins could be considered one species, just with different professions. That's why "family" may be a more appropriate term. Amatulic (talk) 19:37, 27 August 2021 (UTC)
