Big Star (horse)

edit

I'm sure you have it watchlisted, but I've just reviewed and accepted Big Star (horse). Thanks for your help with the draft! /wiae /tlk 16:12, 5 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

Wiae, Thanks for the review! It's nice to come across an article like that in AfC. I don't usually do a lot of editing in sport horse articles, but this is a neat horse and it looks like they're taking him to Rio this summer for the Olympics. White Arabian Filly Neigh 22:10, 5 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

A kitten for you!

edit
 

This kitten is not a horse, but I hope you still like it. Good work over at Big Star (horse). I have closed the ANI report because it seems like the problem is solved now, but feel free to undo that if you disagree or if there are any other problems.

Thanks, The Quixotic Potato! Closing the ANI report is fine; I only opened it because the constantly changing IP addresses seemed odd. White Arabian Filly Neigh 19:53, 6 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
I understand. If you ever need any help translating from Dutch to English feel free to ping me, I am a native Dutch speaker. The Quixotic Potato (talk) 20:10, 6 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for offering. Translation problems can sometimes pop up with the Warmblood horses because many of them are born in Europe and then exported to America. White Arabian Filly Neigh 20:13, 6 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

When does an article stop being listed as orphan

edit

I have related this article to 6 other articles that logically connect to the Flag of Knoxville one. How many more must be connected until the orphan article label is removed? Dkitts (talk) 14:36, 13 June 2016 (UTC)

Hi again Dkitts. I would think it's probably safe to remove the orphan tag now. I'll go over and remove it. White Arabian Filly Neigh 20:05, 13 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
(watching:) even one link is enough, - "orphan" means not a single link in article space, - links to user (talk) pages are a different story, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:20, 13 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
Thanks Gerda. I haven't had time to get rid of the tag yet, somebody came and I logged off in a hurry earlier. White Arabian Filly Neigh 21:26, 13 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

Thank you, to the both of you. The tag is now gone and the article looks "all grown up." Thank you for so much for getting my first contribution off the ground! Dkitts (talk) 02:05, 14 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

GA review

edit

Thanks for the GA review. Note that, after passing an article, you are required to add the article to the relevant section of the GA list, and replace the GA nominee template with the GA template. See WP:GAI for details. I have already done both actions, but this is something to note for next time. SSTflyer 16:51, 14 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

SSTflyer. Oops. I forgot about that part of the review instructions; this is my first time reviewing. I'll be sure to do it next time I review an article. White Arabian Filly Neigh 19:05, 14 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

Your GA nomination of Tennessee Walking Horse National Celebration

edit

The article Tennessee Walking Horse National Celebration you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold  . The article is close to meeting the good article criteria, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needing to be addressed. If these are fixed within 7 days, the article will pass; otherwise it may fail. See Talk:Tennessee Walking Horse National Celebration for things which need to be addressed.

Fair use

edit

The big thing with fair use is to put a fair use rationale on the image page for EVERY article where it is used. It's a pain, but usually if there is a FU rationale, it will stick (not always, but most of the time). Montanabw(talk) 04:47, 19 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

Oh, OK. At least in this case we have a free pic--which, to me, is actually cuter. I just didn't think about it being a problem in article space. (I know about them not being allowed in userspace, but have forgotten before...)White Arabian Filly Neigh 18:18, 19 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

Barnstar

Can I have a barnstar? And please message me! People should give each other more barnstars. Kimono111 (talk) 20:30, 20 June 2016 (UTC)KimonoReply

Welcome to Wikiproject Warriors

edit

Hi there! I just wanted to say hi, and also welcome to Wikiproject Warriors. I'm glad to see there are still people interested in helping out in this area. I used to be a lot more active, but sadly, I've gotten busy these last few years and haven't been able to contribute as much as I wanted. Anyway, I'll probably be moderately active for the rest of this summer, so if you ever want any advice, don't hesitate to leave me a message on my talk page! Brambleclawx 22:43, 24 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

Hi Brambleclawx, and thanks for the welcome! I've read most of the books and enjoyed them, so I decided to look at the articles about them. I'll try to help out wherever I see a need for something. White Arabian Filly Neigh 20:01, 25 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

Interested?

edit

Can't believe they don't have an article on Margaret Cabell Self: User:Montanabw/Margaret_Cabell_Self. She wrote so many, many books about horses. Also pinging Horsegeek and Atsme if anyone wants to play in my sandbox! Montanabw(talk) 06:13, 28 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

Yep, I'll help out there! (I think I might have at least one of her books somewhere...) White Arabian Filly Neigh 18:23, 28 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
