I want to have a list of famous dog people such as Emily Carr, Martha Stewart, possibly breeders but even just those famous for their love of dogs. What do you think? Can it fit in this category? dan

Should we edit this to add in Ong Fatt, the six-legged dog? He ''has'' gotten quite a lot of fame lately.

:It's noticeable that most of the dogs on this list are simply the pets of various American presidents. I think we could do better. [[User:Deb|Deb]] 21:21, 27 Nov 2003 (UTC)

Please have a look at the title-change discussion at [[Talk:List_of_historical_animals#Historical or Historic ?]]. Not many seem to have that page in their watchlist. [[User:Jay|Jay]] 21:08, 14 Jan 2004 (UTC)

I think I like the subdivisions that were just created. I'm going to add "Famous" to the subheads, though, because there's a distinction between famous dogs of presidents and merely dogs that presidents owned. E.g., Checkers is way for sure howzah famous. And lots of people have heard of Roosevelt's Fala (I don't know why, that was a long time ago). But it seems useful to keep this list distinguished from [[List of U.S. Presidential pets]] which doesn't imply that all of the animals on that list are famous. If I'm making sense while sleep deprived... [[User:Elf|Elf]] | [[User talk:Elf|Talk]] 05:45, 12 Mar 2004 (UTC)

:I saw that discussion and I'm not sure that I agree with it unless we replace the adjective with another one, such as "List of famous dogs". "List of dogs" is just wayyyy too general, and loses focus. [[User:Elf|Elf]] | [[User talk:Elf|Talk]] 14:52, 12 Mar 2004 (UTC)

::[[Wikipedia:Lists_(stand-alone_lists)#Naming_conventions]] says no adjectives like "famous", "noted", "important", etc are to be used. The page also uses this page as an example citing the word "historic", but I plan to remove that and thats what this discussion is about. [[User:Jay|Jay]] 15:37, 12 Mar 2004 (UTC)

:::It also says "Lists that are too general or too broad in scope have little value." So once this becomes "list of dogs", what's to stop it from containing fictional dogs, mythical dogs, dog names that are popular but don't apply to any particular dog, and so on? Somehow we need to distinguish this as *real* dogs with some fame to them. I guess we could put a paragraph at the top that says "this is a list of dogs who actually existed and are well-known for some reason" but it seems that the title should reflect that as well, no? If there's a [[list of fictional dogs]], seems there ought to be its counterpart. I could ake this discussion back over to that list if you think I really ought to-- [[User:Elf|Elf]] | [[User talk:Elf|Talk]] 16:14, 12 Mar 2004 (UTC)


Hello fellow Wikipedians,
::::It is good that you're open to this discussion. Firstly, to clarify, I'm ok with the [[list of fictional dogs]] list because its a specific category, and I'm not talking of merging that with this page. Secondly I'm ok with not one, but plenty of counterparts for [[list of fictional dogs]]. My point of discussion is that "historical" is not a valid category. "mythical dogs", "dog names that are popular but don't apply to any particular dog" are ok. Please continue this discussion at [[Talk:List of fictional animals]] if applicable.

Shouldn't the dog's from the movies Marley and Me, Underdog, Beverly Hills Chihuhua, Space Buddies, Snow Buddies, Beethoven, Old Yeller, Racing Stripes, Eight Below, Zues and Roxanne, And All Dogs Go To Heaven be on the list. There should also be a note about famous dogs from books.

::The [[Hachiko]] article is simply wonderful BTW. I saw the japanese film about Hachicko about 8 years ago and cried my ever-lovin' eyes out at the end.

== The N-word (notability) ==

I propose that the list be trimmed, and edited in the future, to include only dogs that show '''[[WP:NOTE|notability]]''' either in a dedicated article, or in a referenced mention in a related article. It is just too easy to add the dog of every single famous person and this list is about famous dogs, not dogs owned by famous people. &mdash;[[User:Dgies|Dgies]]<sup>[[User talk:Dgies|t]]&nbsp;[[Special:Contributions/Dgies|c]]</sup> 05:19, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

:users are always adding fictional dogs to the list for some reason. I just removed a few. When you see them - delete them and list the reason as the fact that they are fictional. If you see dogs listed without a reference, look for a reference yourself if you can and add it. If you can't find one and it looks as if someone just wants to list their own dog - delete it.[[User:Lisapollison|LiPollis]] 00:34, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

I'm going to have a go at rewording this: "Natividad, a dog starved to death in a controversial display by artist Guillermo Vargas Habacuc in the Visual Arts Biennial of Central America" because I think it's been fairly conclusively shown from the various investigations that the dog was not starved to death by the artist, just taken from the streets and displayed until he escaped.

== Proposed Rule: ==

In order to qualify for inclusion, a dog can:
#Have a cited article we can link to on Wikipedia about him/her, '''or'''
#Have a cited article section we can link to on Wikipedia about him/her '''or'''
#Have a cited article section subsection that we can link to about the dog '''or'''
#Be cited here.
##Dogs that have linkable Wikipedia articles, sections, or subsections DO NOT NEED CITATIONS SO DON'T PUT "CITATION NEEDED"
##Linkless dogs should have citation or a defender who is trying to find a citation and is asking us to wait.
##Linkless dogs must be cited to a book or article or some such about the dog, or which has a section or subsection about the dog. And that should meet some reasonable, to-be-discussed-when-in-doubt standard of famousness.

And that's it. NO OTHER DOGS.

[[List of dogs]] → {{no redirect|List of famous dogs}} – Current title is ambiguous... it could be confused with [[List of dog breeds]] (Poodle, Pit Bull, Pomeranian, etc.) and [[List of dog types]] (Companion dog, Guard Dog, Working dog, etc.). While we normally don't add adjectives like "notable", "famous", "well known", etc. I think this is a case where doing so would clarify the article topic and aid searching.

*What about [[List of individual dogs]]? [[User:LtPowers|Powers]] <sup><small><small>[[User talk:LtPowers|T]]</small></small></sup> 14:32, 7 October 2012 (UTC)
*'''Support''' The most important thing about an article title is that it clearly indicate what the article is about and distinguish it from other articles. I could support adding "notable", "famous", or "individual" or maybe some other ideas. More importantly, however, the guidelines should be changed so that they clarify when this should and should not be done, which is more important than just list of dogs. If also applies to list of trees and several others. [[User:Chrisrus|Chrisrus]] ([[User talk:Chrisrus|talk]]) 15:33, 7 October 2012 (UTC)
::Ok. I've been thinking about which adjective we should request it be moved to so that we can specify what the move requst we are making is. Let's look at the choices:
::"List of individual dogs" is a good idea, but I suppose it might needlessly exclude any notable packs, pairs, teams such as a sled team, or other groups of two or more dogs that we might want to add. What if a conjoined twin dog is born tomorrow? It could happen, and then "individual" might not turn out to have been the best choice.
::"List of notable dogs" and "list of famous dogs" seem to be good choices. What difference, if any, might there be? Is "notable" a higher bar than "famous"? On Wikipedia, "Notablity" might imply that there should be a full article on each dog, because every notable thing in the world should have an article on Wikipedia. It might be harder to prove "notablity" than simply "fame". All you have to do to establish fame is to show that a large number of people have heard of the dog, while "notablability" might be somehow harder to prove. Many lists exist in order to accomodate items which aren't notable enough to merit their own articles, but still famous or important enough to improve a list. So based on this thinking, I favor moving it to "List of famous dogs". What do you all think? [[User:Chrisrus|Chrisrus]] ([[User talk:Chrisrus|talk]]) 19:57, 7 October 2012 (UTC)

Please everyone hear me out because I hope to convince you all that "List of famous dogs" is the best choice:
*"List of individual dogs" isn't as good because it doesn't describe list items such as [[Lucky and Flo]], who are not an individual.
*"List of notable dogs" isn't as good because it might imply [[WP:NOTABILITY]], a standard which list items such as [[Maui and Blondi]] can't meet.
*"List of famous dogs" describes the nature and scope of the article and distinguishes it from other lists the best of all the choices.
*"List of dogs" doesn't describe the nature and scope of the article or distinguish it from other lists, as per [[WP:ARTICLETITLE]]. [[User:Chrisrus|Chrisrus]] ([[User talk:Chrisrus|talk]]) 04:50, 11 October 2012 (UTC)
::"List of individual dogs" doesn't exclude pairs. Lucky and Flo are each individual dogs, and they'd both be listed. It's not a problem if they're on the same bullet point. And while I agree "List of notable dogs" is a bad choice, it's not for the reasons you state. If dogs on this list don't meet [[WP:GNG]], they shouldn't be on here, should they? (What's so special about Maui and Blondi?) --[[User:BDD|BDD]] ([[User talk:BDD|talk]]) 15:06, 11 October 2012 (UTC)
:::Pairs, groups, teams, and packs of dogs are clearly not individuals, but if they are famous they are included on this list. List of individual dogs is a pretty good name and much better than simply List of dogs, but it doesn't explain well the criteria for inclusion as well as List of famous dogs. List of famous dogs describes this list better than List of individual dogs" does.
:::And no, the criteria for inclusion on lists isn't as high as that for articles. For example, there is the [[List of minor Star Wars characters]], or [[List of minor planets]]. Lists may also contain things which are worthy of mention, only, and why they must be notable in a generic way, they don't have to be specifically [[WP:NOTABLE]].
:::About [[Maui and Blondi]], I don't know because I don't edit that section, but if you check on it and find that they are not famous, they should be removed. But apparently, there is this famous supermodel who is well known for going everywhere with her two dogs, and so her fame has rubbed off on them. When a famous person takes her dogs with her wherever she goes and has her picture taken over and over with the dogs and so the dogs magazine covers with the model and go on TV talk shows with her, the dogs become famous and should be included on a list of famous dogs. If you would please check up on the facts of that case and if it doesn't turn out to be the case, they should be removed as not really famous dogs. Looking at it now, this section of dogs famous for being owned by famous people should probably be looked over because some of them might not be famous in their own rights, but if it's true that Maui and Blondi aren't really famous than they should be removed because only famous dogs should be on this list.

*'''Support''' moving to [[List of individual dogs]], for consistency with {{cl|Individual dogs}}, noting that the category also contains "multi-dog" articles such as [[Lucky and Flo]].

:But a list of famous dogs is what this is. I'm not sure if it's a list of truely [[WP:NOTABLE]] dogs, because that means they are all worthy of independant articles. A pack of 75 dogs is not an individual, and a list of individual dogs doesn't really describe this list nearly as well. And I don't see why "notable" is any less subjective, there's still plenty of gray area there. Changing it to a list of notable dogs would mean Wikipedia wouldn't know anything about many of these dogs, such as Spot or La China. Wouldn't that fundamentally change the nature of the list, and not in a good way? I don't know how literally you meant it when you said "at all costs", but surely there are costs that too high. Is it really less objective than notable? [[User:Chrisrus|Chrisrus]] ([[User talk:Chrisrus|talk]]) 03:57, 13 October 2012 (UTC)

===Expansion of move request to also Move "List of Dogs" to "List of dogs (disambiguation)"===

== Famous "for" or "as a result of" being owned by a famous person? ==

[[List_of_dogs#Dogs_belonging_to_notable_people|The section on dogs famous for belonging to notable people]] needs cleanup. Many are unannotated or underannotated. Many are uncited and/or unlinked. This is a list of famous dogs. One way that a dog can become famous is by hanging out in public with a famous person. If Schfamous McNotable never goes anywhere without a poodle named Charlie, then Charlie might appear on the cover of notable magazines or sit in a chair next to him on lots of TV talk shows or other things that would cause Charlie to become famous. It is not clear looking at this that this is the case with many of these dogs. It seems some contributors might have misunderstood and if they learned that some moviestar had a dog named Rover, added Rover to the list. Rover isn't famous because the moviestar leaves him at home and doesn't bring him on [[The Tonight Show]]. Should all dogs that are not famous even though they belong to famous people be removed from the list? Should the section title be reworded? [[User:Chrisrus|Chrisrus]] ([[User talk:Chrisrus|talk]]) 14:21, 12 October 2012 (UTC)

== Hatnotes and lead sentence ==

It's odd. I'll say that. The hats take up a lot of space with the double spacing thing, plus they should be at the top, but shouldn't be at the top:

Possible solutions:
*Wait till the article is renamed. Then some may not be needed.
*Make the hats manually so we can customize them into one line or maybe one sentence.
*Lose the hats, and incorporate the info into a larger lead.

Thoughts? [[User:Anna Frodesiak|Anna Frodesiak]] ([[User talk:Anna Frodesiak|talk]]) 19:14, 12 October 2012 (UTC)
:Agreed. There's no need to wait, please try to fix them into one line or sentence or incorporate them into a longer lead, or anything else you might think of. [[User:Chrisrus|Chrisrus]] ([[User talk:Chrisrus|talk]]) 20:37, 12 October 2012 (UTC)

== Mascots ==

We need to clarify the inclusion criteria in relation to mascots. My understanding is that the dogs listed have to be (or have been) real living canines.

In most cases, the mascots listed are appropriate... there is (or was historically) an actual living canine that was the mascot (in some cases, the mascot was a series of canines... all given the same name). Yale university's bulldog, [[Handsome Dan]], is a good example of this. The original Handsome Dan was an actual bulldog.

However, we need to be careful, because in a few cases this is not the case... For example: the Calgary Flames' mascot [[Harvey the Hound]] was always just a guy dressed up in a dog costume - never a real live canine. I think it inappropriate to include Harvey on the list (I have removed him). [[User:Blueboar|Blueboar]] ([[User talk:Blueboar|talk]]) 20:20, 21 October 2012 (UTC)

:Good job. Keep it up. You might want to consider adding a annotation at the top of the section explaining the nature and scope of that section.
:By the way, Handsome Dan is a famous dog, but not an individual dog, further recommending another move to "List of famous dogs". There have been many Handsome Dans. [[User:Chrisrus|Chrisrus]] ([[User talk:Chrisrus|talk]]) 00:53, 22 October 2012 (UTC)
::They also need to be famous, right now the list contains a lot of mascots that are nothing special - there are lots of dogs who are mascots. [[User:Dougweller|Dougweller]] ([[User talk:Dougweller|talk]]) 21:42, 1 February 2013 (UTC)

== Legendary dogs ==

What should we do with Legendary dogs? Put them on the list of fictional dogs, keep them here, or both? Or should they have their own list? [[User:Chrisrus|Chrisrus]] ([[User talk:Chrisrus|talk]]) 08:17, 9 March 2013 (UTC)
:Ditto, with Mythological dogs –e.g. [[Argos (dog)]]. Perhaps a 'Legendary and Mythological dogs' section? How many are there?

== Wiley the Wolfdog ==

This Wiley the Wolfdog entry could easily be a hoax. The article is from a notorious Tabloid and only says that the other citation, a You Tube video, exists and is popular, but that there is skepticism. The video is very short and shows the animal placed on the gravestone doing a "reverse sneeze" sound similar to the snuffing sound associated with crying in humans, whose tears run down inside their noses, not the typical whimper of a dog or wolf in emotional distress. Dogs don't cry tears and so would not need to snuff like that when they cry. Everyone knows what a dog does when it cries, it whimpers, not snuffs like that. We should have a higher standard of proof when we cry and so not be used to send traffic to a You Tube video. [[User:Chrisrus|Chrisrus]] ([[User talk:Chrisrus|talk]]) 16:20, 15 February 2014 (UTC)

Notability criteria for dogs

[edit]

Morghem's .500 Nitro Express, an American Pit Bull Terrier, earned several United Kennel Club titles in his first campaign from the following sports: dock jumping, weight pulling, rally obedience and Show Champion. During the campaign he also passed Canine Good Citizen and USTTA temperament testing, while acquiring 70 points in the American Pulling Alliance with three first place and three second place wins.

Does this dog meet basic notability criteria? The single source is unexceptional and does not indicate either that this dog is particularly well-known or that this dog has achieved more than similar (non-notable) sport dogs. SkrikerandTrash (talk) 08:00, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
