::"Animals" does not mutually exclude sentience (sentience can be purchased for pets after all), and you would have to provide explanation for the tells contradiction (I refer to what Krypton provided) to fit your new definition. Similarly, public perception/lingo may not necessarily verify fact (e.g. everyone calling abilities "skills".) However, if you are interested in contesting/changing current established policy, please feel free to make a poll on the forums with these explanations. =) [[User:Asara|Asara]] 19:49, 11 September 2008 (UTC)

:::When I've figured out a convincing way to make my case, I will! :D And yes, the very fact that animals may be sentient is what I'm driving at here: Humgii are sentient yet HELP HUMGII calls them animals, two facts we cannot easily discard. ~[[User:Soludra|Soludra]] 23:15, 11 September 2008 (UTC)

::::The fact that humgiis are flagged as sentient is, in and of itself, probably a minor bug (barring cases in which organisational humgiis have progs that might be triggered by tells). They don't say anything on their own, and the default ones actually have signs around their necks to get their point across. On a somewhat related note, dolphins and unicorns are animals and flagged as sentient, but I would not be willing to classify them under [[:Category:Denizen races]]. In fact, you'll note that the [[Unicorns|"Unicorns" article]] is specifically categorised in [[:Category:Creatures]]. Classing all sentient creatures under a "Sentient creatures" category as I originally proposed, whether a "race" or not, would be ideal in my view. -{{User:Delphinus/sig1}} 00:06, 12 September 2008 (UTC)
