Forum:CT Archive/Non- and semi-sentient species sections

After some brief discussion on the IRC and seeing other articles on species I thought this should be brought up. Per the Layout Guide via the Manual of Style, species articles are subdivided the following (excerpt): I would like to suggest an addendum to this outline in light of non-sentient and semi-sentient species. For obvious reasons, these species do not qualify, per the definition of sentience of having a society and culture. I suggest that this section title be changed for these other species.
 * Biology and appearance deals with the physical characteristics of the species. This includes descriptions of both their physical, instinctual and mental abilities, with particular emphasis on unique factors.
 * History deals with the major events in the history of the species. This includes such events as wars, discovery by the galactic community, and other important epochs.
 * Society and culture deals with the sociological organization of the species, including such features as language, temperament, and family and societal structures.
 * [Species] in the galaxy provides an overview of the species involvement in the galactic community with particular emphasis on species trends and notable individuals. Depending on the available information, this section in particular may be incorporated into the earlier sections.

Therefore, for non-sentient species, such as cannok and shyrack, I suggest "Behavior" as the title. For semi-sentient species, such as acklay or sarlacc, I suggest "Behavior and intelligence" as the title of this section.

I understand that some articles have already achieved FA or GA status. I am suggesting that this be a new standard, and these old articles can be discussed later if it is deemed that the format must change. This is more for a clarification for the purposes of bringing species articles up to FA and GA standards with consistency and with commonality.
