Estonian Native → Estonian Native horse – Intolerably naturally ambiguous phrase. The capitalization of Native doesn't "save" it, either, especially with rise of [over-]capitalization in the left-leaning press of terms like "native" any time they are applied to humans. That is, to a significant population of readers, the phrase "Estonian Native" necessarily indicates "people native to the present or historical Estonia", i.e. Estonians (AKA Estonian people) and the culture of Estonia. This move will be entirely WP:CONSISTENT with many prior moves of animal breed articles with names that appeared to refer to human populations to now include the species term at the end as a WP:NATURAL disambiguator (thus Argentine Criollo cattle, Messinese goat, Algerian Arab sheep, Indo-Brazilian cattle, Florida White rabbit, etc., etc. (Cf. in particular the mass-RMs: Talk:British White cattle#Requested moves 19 December 2014 and Talk:Anglo-Nubian goat#Requested moves). The capitalization presented here is correct per MOS:LIFE: the proper name of a standardized breed is capitalized, but the species name used after it as a disambiguator is not, unless that word is itself part of the formal breed name because it would be confusingly ambiguous without it even outside of an encyclopedic context (as in the case of Norwegian Forest Cat which is not a Scandinavian woodland, and American Quarter Horse which is not a coin). PS: I would not create an Estonian native (disambiguation) page, but instead put {{Redirect|Estonian Native|people native to Estonia|Estonian people}} hatnote template at the top of this breed article, since there are only two subjects to disambiguate. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼 11:29, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
