 | The Northern right whale dolphin article is part of the Cetaceans WikiProject. A discussion on the capitalisation of common names of cetaceans is taking place and your input is appreciated. Please see the the project talk page for the full rationale and comments. |

This is a peculiar statement in an article that presents pictures of the creatures with fins.
