This article is written in
British English, which has its own spelling conventions (colour, travelled, centre, defence, artefact, analyse) and some terms that are used in it may be different or absent from other
varieties of English. According to the
relevant style guide, this should not be changed without
broad consensus.
Bit of an oversight not to mention the
Catalan donkey even in the 'See also' section. It would make most sense to have a 'varieties' or 'breeds' section and then mention the Burro, Catalan donkey and perhaps wild breeds. I'm sure there are other varieties out there too with pages.
Nomenclature
The article suggests some origins of the usage ‘donkey’, but doesn’t anyone think there is more than a passing resemblance to the name for the area of China which another Wikipedia article places at the centre of the production of ejiao, namely Dong’e County in Shandung?
