__NOWYSIWYG__ This is another rename forum, this time for the cow hippo page. I feel that it should be renamed to hippo cow. Basically, I could not find any sources that call this creature a cow hippo. However, Avatar Extras does refer to it as a hippo-cow. Now, Avatar Extras is not always reliable, but I feel that in this case it makes sense to trust it. The dash would be removed for the article— as usual. Thoughts? 08:23, December 25, 2012 (UTC)

The source for what ATFF is talking about, found here and here (as this name is mentioned twice in AE), lead me to believe that the name for this animal has not been misconstrued to serve the purposes of humor, as it is used twice consistently and the context does not seem to indicate that. I should also mention that in all cases where the reliability of the Avatar Extras has been questioned on certain pieces of information, it has been based on the difficulty of identifying what is useable information in contrast to what has been included clearly intended as humorous and non-factual - on which I think the name is of the former case, and as such, constitutes as a valid source in ATLA canon. However, I leave that for the rest of the community to consider.

Usually, the animal that is mentioned last is the one that has the most visible "features" in the hybird, and this creature quite obviously is a cow. 09:06, December 25, 2012 (UTC) I support this change. There's more sources to it being called a hippo-cow than cow-hippo. 14:08, December 27, 2012 (UTC)
