Jackal-wolf hybrid → Jackal–dog hybrid – This was the article's original name, but was erroneously moved to the current title a few years ago. Considering there is far more material pertaining to jackal-dog crossings than jackal-wolf crossings, the former title, logically, should take precedence.

You mean illegally shot, not legally. If an animal has domestic blood, shooting it is by law illegal. Don't say it is legal because it's not. I wouldn't be surprised five years later if a news report came on saying that those were actually somebody's pets. -- 69.178.52.50 ( talk) 17:55, 26 September 2016 (UTC)Thunder808

Jackal–dog hybrid → Jackal-dog hybrid – Title currently has an EN-DASH and should be a HYPHEN, refer Wolf-dog hybrid as an example. I cannot move it because Jackal–dog hybrid exists as a redirect. William Harris • (talk) • 11:06, 9 November 2017 (UTC)
'morning Mac. This request has come from a review of a Canis-related article by the Guild of Copy Editors. The advice I have been given is as follows:
In some cases, like diode–transistor logic, the independent status of the linked elements requires an en dash instead of a hyphen. See En dashes below., but see also MOS:DASH, specifically the examples in
In compounds when the connection might otherwise be expressed with to, versus, and, or between. Perhaps the "jackal-wolf hybrid" is similar to the example "blue-green algae", in which, according to this example, since "blue-green" is a "blended, intermediate color", a hyphen is correct.
Therefore, I refer to Wikipedia:Manual of Style#In compounds when the connection might otherwise be expressed with to, versus, and, or between where it states: "Wrong: blue–green algae; a blended, intermediate color, so use a hyphen: blue-green algae"
In my opinion, a jackal-dog hybrid is a mixture similar to a blue-green algae - it mixes elements of both. Which ever way you decide to go, it should be made consistent across all articles that use this device. William Harris • (talk) • 21:45, 9 November 2017 (UTC)
Update: The problem is actually in vague wording in MOS:HYPHEN and lack of a cross-reference from the applicable segment of it to MOS:DASH. Opened a "let's clarify this" thread at WT:MOS.  —  SMcCandlish ☠¢ >ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ<  02:33, 10 November 2017 (UTC)
Why is the only image here a graphic photo of three dead subjects of what this article is about? If I click on an article about John F. Kennedy, I don't want the top picture to be a still of his head exploding. If I click on an article about babies, I don't want to see a stillborn dead baby. This is a very offputting image and as somebody who just lost his dog this evening and was just browsing wikipedia on various dog-related subjects, I feel like it's put me in a very bad state of mind. Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.27.150.101 ( talk) 07:43, 10 August 2019 (UTC)
It is unsurprising that this image provokes distaste and offense. Articles about animals are best illustrated with images (photographs and/or artists' impressions) showing the animal in a living state, even if just an approximated one (like in the article about the extinct Dodo Bird, which includes a photograph of a life-long model of the bird as it looked in life.) Whilst articles about taxidermy, hunting, or perhaps even topics such as animal cruelty, rigor mortis, and processes biological decomposition **might** benefit from including images like this one being discussed here ('slaughtered jackals hybrids in Croatia'), this unpleasant photograph fails to advance any useful knowledge about the current article's topic, viz. "Jackal-dog hybrid". Consequently, it is best to remove this photograph altogether. Elysium0820 ( talk) 19:17, 5 February 2020 (UTC)
Merge with Sulimov Dog.
Reason: Sulimov Dog is a Jackal-Dog. The image while not unhelpful, evokes unnecessarily negative emotions in readers which could affect the neutral intentions we have in mind when creating Wikipedia articles. The image from the Sulimov Dog Article can be used here to evoke less negative feelings in readers (as the dogs are still caged). This new image could be a placeholder till a more neutral image can be found of Jackal-Dogs. Chantern15 ( talk) 15:16, 1 November 2021 (UTC)
