Parameters

[edit]

All fields are optional. URLs should be entered as is, without wiki markup except for the "otherstd" field.

Basic parameters
  • name:Most common name of the breed (orlandrace,crossbreed,hybrid, etc.). Should agree with article title (aside from any parenthetical disambiguation) and lead sentence, not use an alternative name(see thealtname parameter, below). Do not include "cat" at the end, unless it is an integral part of the formal name of a breed (e.g. the capitalized "Cat" in "Norwegian Forest Cat"). Names ofstandardized breeds are capitalized (except after a hyphen). Those of landraces,mongrelized populations, etc., are not (except capitalize the first letter of the parameter value, and anyproper names like geographical ones).
  • image: Image file of the breed. Enter asExample.jpg instead ofImage:Example.jpg orFile:Example.jpg
  • imagecaption: Caption that describes the image (e.g. gender, coat pattern and color, etc.)
  • image2: Second image file of the breed.
  • imagecaption2: Caption that describes the second image
  • altname: Otherreliably sourceable names by which the breed is known to English-speakers. It is also permissible to include the name in the native language, if it uses a Latin script, for breeds or landraces that genuinely came from a non-English-speaking place. If more than one name, separate with,<br />. Same capitalization rules as thename parameter, except for a non-English name, follow the style used in running prose (not headings) in the native-language sources. Non-English names should be wrapped in a correctly specified{{lang}} template, e.g.{{lang|de|Deutsche Langhaar}}. For more detailed language information, use the main body of the article.
  • nickname: Genuinely common,reliably sourceable nicknames. If more than one, separate with,<br />. If there are no nicknames in reliable sources, remove the parameter to discourage the addition ofmade up examples. Except for the first letter of the parameter value, do not capitalize nicknames.
  • stock: List offoundation stock – thebreeds,landraces, or other populations from which the breed was developed, if any are known. May include a wild species or subspecies in the case of afeline hybrid that has been developed into a breed, e.g.:|stock=[[Egyptian Mau]], [[Abyssinian]], and others (domestic); [[Asian leopard cat]] (wild) for theBengal cat.(See also thex parameter, below.)
  • origin (a.k.a.country): Country or region/area of origin.Do not use flag icons; cats have no nationality and are not patriots.
International registries (use these four at a minimum, if they provide a standard)
  • cfastd: URL to theCat Fanciers' Association breed standard.Find it here (pick breed name, then "Breed Standard" from the "Breed Profile" inset box on the breed-profile page). This registry is now international, but has its strongest presence in the US, followed by Europe and Japan.
  • fifestd: URL to theFédération Internationale Féline breed standard.Find it here. This registry has its strongest presence in Europe and parts of Latin America, though is nominally world-wide.
  • fifestd2: Optional URL to a second Fédération Internationale Féline breed standard. Use this when FIFé has two separate breed standards for variants of the breed (e.g.Seychellois Longhair and Seychellois Shorthair), typically handled as two divisions in one breed standard in other registries.
  • fifeterm1: characters (e.g. "SH") to link from forfifestd whenfifestd2 is also used; defaults to "1"
  • fifeterm2: characters (e.g. "LH") to link from forfifestd2; defaults to "2"
  • ticastd: URL toThe International Cat Association breed standard.Find it here (copy the URL of the "Breed Introduction" link for the desired breed). This registry is nominally world-wide, but has its strongest presence in the US.
  • wcfstd: URL to theWorld Cat Federation breed standard. Find it here:long-haired,semi-long-haired,short-haired andSiamese & oriental divisions. Please use the URL of the PDF link at the bottom of the breed profile page (the PDF version includes additional information, such as revision date). Those are all the lists of WCF "accepted" (for competition) breeds; see alsothis list of all breeds that are "recognized" (as existing) by WCF. This registry has its strongest presence in Europe, though is nominally world-wide.

   Another, recent, nominally international registry (its affiliates are primarily US-based), primarily for experimental new breeds, most of which arenon-notable:

Regional multi-national registries
  • ffestd: URL to theFeline Federation Europe breed standard.Find it here, under "Races Standard" in its left menu.(Due to use of frames at that site, you have to right-click or ctrl-click and select "copy link" or your browser's equivalent, to get the actual direct URL of the standards page you want. If you replacewww.ffe-europe.de/ withwww.bavarian-cfa.de/data/ffe/ in the URL, you can use the resulting new URL to get the underlying static file, from which the last-modified date is the actual publication date; FFE's site is dynamically generated from files hosted statically by the BCFA site run by the same webmaster on the same server). This registry, based in Germany, has its strongest presence in Western and Central Europe.
National registries
  • acfastd2: URL to a second American Cat Fanciers Association/Cat Aficionado Association breed standard. Use this when the ACFA/CAA has two separate breed standards for variants of the breed (e.g.American Bobtail Longhair and American Bobtail Shorthair), typically handled as two divisions in one breed standard in other registries
  • acfaterm1: characters to link (e.g. "SH") from foracfastd whenacfastd2 is also used; defaults to "1"
  • acfaterm2: characters to link (e.g. "LH") from foracfastd2; defaults to "2"
Other parameters
  • otherstd: Free-form field for adding names or acronyms of other registries,with links to their breed standards(see also thenote parameter, below, for non-standards-issuing organizations/agencies). An entry should be added as a typical external link with the registry acronym (or name, if short) as link title. Separate multiple entries with,<br />&nbsp;&nbsp; for spacing.
    (See§ Registries not included for potential standards to include with this parameter.)
    This parameter should not be used to link to breed-specific clubs' standards unless they are at least national-level and they are unique standards with requirements missing from those of more general organizations. There are around 200 countries in the world, and we do not need a long list of redundant standards here.
    It should also not be used to link to sub-national groups of any kind (non-encyclopedic trivia).
  • note: Free-formconcise comments, usually about the breed recognition or standards. Some example uses:
    • Recognition by organizations (private or governmental) that do not issue breed standards, e.g.: "Recognized by theARBA."
    • Major registries that refuse to recognize a breed recognized by most others, e.g.: "Not recognized by [linked acronym of conservative registry here]."
      • Briefly mentioning classification issues, e.g.: "Classified as just a variant of the [other breed named and linked here] by [linked acronym of conservative registry here]."
      • Showing unusual status limitations, e.g.: "Not eligible for championship status inlinked acronym of conservative registry here] shows."
      • For landraces and other non-breed populations, can indicate what they are, e.g.: "Landrace.", or "Feral cat population.", or "Crossbreed, with provisional recognition as a breed in one major registry."
This parameter is not for breed-specific or local/regional clubs.
Special parameters

There are two special parameters that can be used in place of those for links to breed standards:

  • extinct=y: Shows an "Extinct" message. This parameter should be removed if not used (and do not tryextinct=n; it does not work).
  • notrecognized=y ornotrecognised=y: Shows a "Not recognized as a standardized breed by any major registry." message. The|notrecognised=y version outputs the British and Commonwealth English-ised spelling. This parameter (under either spelling) should be removed if not used. Also, if both are accidentally included, the-ised spelling will be used.

If a "notrecogni[s|z]ed" or "extinct" parameter is used, all URL fields should be removed. (A link to aformer breed recognition document should be added as a regular source citation in the article text about the breed history).

Another special parameter is for cross-specieshybrids (notcrossbreeds between two domestic breeds with no recent wild ancestor):

  • x: The value of the parameter is the wikilinked binomial (scientific name) –piped withFelis abbreviated asF. – of the non-domestic cat to which domestics have been bred to produce the hybrid. It will be italicized for you. E.g., a value of "|x=[[Felis chaus|F. chaus]]" outputs a result of "Hybrid cat,Felis catus ×F. chaus" at the bottom of the infobox, instead of "Domestic cat,Felis catus". For an intergeneric hybrid, use the full name of the genus:|x=[[Prionailurus bengalensis]].(See also thestock parameter, above.)

Another special parameter is for non-breed types:

  • landrace=y (a.k.a.cross=y): Indicates that the article subject is alandrace,crossbreed,mongrelized population,feral population, general type, domestic × wild hybrid, or other classification of cat that is not a standardized breed. This is usually also used withnotrecognized=y (above), and should not be used with any parameters for breed standards, except when the article is about both a landrace and a breed (better done with two infoboxes in two sections), or a crossbreed gaining limited recognition as a standardized breed.(See also thenote parameter, above, for specifying what the non-breed actually is.) This parameter changes "breed" wording to 'variety", and may be used for other more sophisticated processing with later template development.

Registries not included

[edit]

Various obscure, localized, or questionably appropriate (e.g. for-profit and promotional) registries do not have custom parameters; if really needed, their standards can be added with theotherstd parameter, as documented above. Be suspicious of anything with a global- or national-sounding name that didn't exist 10 years ago, doesn't have a professionally designed website, and looks like a one-person operation, with nonotability even in the specialist press. Search for things like "fake purebred cat registry" and read the warning posts. Beware being tricked into promoting a made-up "new breed" that the real world does not accept as legitimate. There is real money in this, thus an incentive for those trying to establish a breed to misuse Wikipedia as a form of advertising and legitimacy-establishment for "backyard breeder" experiments. There is a truly massive problem in dog breeding in the form ofpuppy mills and exploitative pseudo-organizations(see list of bogus registries atTemplate:Infobox dog breed/doc), and the problem is spreading to cat breeding. Remember that a breed standard is aprimary source that must be used with caution, since the publisher isnot independent of the subject and has apromotional, fiduciary interest in its breed standards being seen as authoritative.

  • American Rare Breeds Association (ARBA) – Includes many experimental breeds (across various domesticated species, presently mostly dogs, and no cats yet) that may not be found in other registries yet, if ever. ARBA treats virtually any crossbreed as a legitimate "rare breed" if someone has bred it to itself and formed a club about it. They are not necessarily reliable on what is a breed or not, and maylack independence from the subject, not unlike one of the major horse "breed" encyclopedias that accepts iffy, promotional entries, and the for-profit CatZ registry (below). However, it is usable at least in the body of the article as a source that the claimed breed exists at all (i.e., is not a hoax or aWP:CRYSTAL matter).
  • Rare and Exotic Feline Registry (REFR) – Same story as with ARBA, basically, except they want there to be a wild (non-domestic) cat in the woodpile somewhere. Sometimes does not publish standards, other times has summary ones. If you say it's a breed, that there's a wild species in the mix somewhere in the bloodline, and send in your check and some pictures, they agree it's a breed, too.
  • Designer Cat Association (and division/affiliateDwarf Cat Assocation) – Same as above, and now defunct.
  • CatZ (New Zealand) should not have their standards (listedhere) added toall breeds' articles (it won't be encyclopedically relevant in most cases, buttrivia). However, in a few cases, it may help establish that new breeds actually exist and are recognized as breeds by at least one registry instead of having to flag the article with thenotrecognized parameter or send it toWP:AFD. It is unlikely that CatZ can help establishnotability. It is not notable itself, and it failsWP:INDY, since it has strong ties to the breeders of the new cat varieties it is promoting as standardized.
  • No standards available: Some (even some well-established) pedigree registries may not produce breed standards, but rely on others for them, or may provide them only to paying members:
    • World Cat Congress (WCC) – This confederation of federations does not issue breed standards. However, its "Breed Comparisons" pages are often good sources for a detail or two, and the organization does sometimes issue breeding rules (permissible outcrosses, etc.) which may be adopted or deferred to by member federations (often including WCF). It may also issue judging recommendations (non-binding) for disqualifications that might help preserve distinctive breed traits.
    • American Cat Association (ACA) – Breed standards not available online. If you want to cite a paper copy, use a full{{cite book}} template in the main article body.
    • United Feline Organization (UFO) – Breed standards (if any) not available online.
    • World Felinology Federation (WFF, serving Russia and theCIS) – Does not itself publish breed standards; it is simply a cross-federation pedigree service that accepts any breed recognized by others.
  • No-name and kitten-mill registries: Others that do not have a parameter are the following "no-name" pseudo-registries used by "kitten mills" (cat equivalent ofpuppy mills), and listed in various online warnings, including:
    • US Kitten & Cat Registry (USKCR, of Plainview, New York) – apparently affiliated with the bogus "Dog Registry of America" puppy mill.
    • International Progressive Cat Breeders' Alliance (IPCBA, of Upton, Kentucky). Part of an International Progressive Breeders' Alliance, set up to be something of a competitor to REFR in 1996, and defunct since 2017.
    • TheUnited States Department of Agriculture (USDA) – They actually have a "commercial breeding farms" registration system, which can include large-scale kitten farms, said to be the source of the cats in most American pet stores. USDA does not establish breed standards, anyway.
    • "ICF" – This organization has not even been identified. One would guess that it means "[I...something] Cat Federation" (International? Italian? Iranian? Idaho?).
  • Obscure: Some others that are rarely if ever needed are:
    • theBahrain Cat Club (BCC)
    • Cat Federation of Southern Africa (CFSA)
    • European Cat Fancy (ECF, partially functional website[1], seems to just be a breeder directory)
    • Norske Rasekattklubbers Riksförbund (NRR, Norway)
    • Selectional Feline Federation (SFF, Russia)
    • United Feline Organization (UFO, mostly western US counterpart to CFF, and uses TICA standards for at least some breeds)
    • Plus some Latin American ones.
    • The International Maew Boran Association (TIMBA); this is a new organization in Thailand, supposedly preserving variants of the Siamese/Thai cat mentioned in the old manuscriptTamra Maew. While this might be preservation oflandraces, other information suggests what they're really doing is attempting toback-breed extinct varieties from extant stock. Regardless, they are not breeds in any encyclopedic sense, are mostly not notable as varieties, and the organization is not notable.
    • If any of those become bluelinks, maybe they should get a parameter in this template. One can be created anyway if you'll be adding information from that registry to quite a number of articles and are certain it is not bogus. However, some of these may turn out to be affiliates of one of the major organizations(see "Redundant sub-clubs", below).
  • Redundant sub-clubs: There is no point adding standards parameters for the individual national and breed-specific clubs that form the major organizations and supply them with breed standards. Anystub article on such a club should usually bemerged to the article on the parent organization, as they are usually non-notable. Examples include theFédération Féline Française,Federazione Italiana Associazioni Feline, andIndonesian Cat Association (FIFe affiliates);Manx Breed Council,Cat Owners Association of Western Australia,Cincinnati Cat Club, etc. (local affiliates of national registries GCCF, ACF, and CFA, respectively). The WCF also has regional/national affiliates, such as theAustralian Independent Cat Council (AICC). Another WCF affiliate isAustralian National Cats Inc. (ANCats, formerlyWaratah National Cat Alliance or WNCA), but it also sometimes publishes its own standards for non-WCF breeds, and might be usable in theotherstd parameter in such a case.
  • Independent breed-specific clubs: Occasional exceptions may exist to the point above, in the form of a national or international organization for a long-established breed, and preferred by many breeders and keepers over the big federations, perhaps because of disputes about the breed standards or recognition. (No examples are evident at this time for cats, though this situation is common in horse breeding, and not unknown in the dog fancy). These are notindependent of the subject, so are primary sources to be used with caution, but can be added via theotherstd parameter. These should not be confused with alleged organizations trying to establish new breeds, or with bogus registries serving "factory" breeding operations.
  • Missing national registries? There may be some national, unaffiliated registries of note that could be added, that are missing here because of lack of English-language material about them.

Microformat

[edit]

This template emits a "species" (or "biota")microformat.

The microformat is created by the use ofclass="biota", and classes for individual taxonomic ranks, such asclass="domain" in a span around {{{domain}}} (full list). Please do not change or remove those classes other than as part of development of the microformat. For background information, seemicroformats on Wikipedia and themicroformat specification.
