English common names of species and of general types of organisms are not capitalized, and article titles about them are sentence-cased, except where [[proper names]] appear and are capitalized: [[Bottlenose dolphin|{{xt|Bottlenose dolphin}}]], [[Livestock guardian dog|{{xt|Livestock guardian dog}}]], [[Red oak|{{xt|Red oak}}]], but [[Small Indian civet|{{xt|Small Indian civet}}]].  Redirects should be created from the alternative capitalized form(s), e.g., {{xt|[[Bottlenose Dolphin]]}}, and from plural forms of each spelling.
