[edit] Regarding edits to List of horse breeds
Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia, Horsecanter! However, your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove spam from Wikipedia. If you were trying to insert a good link, please accept my creator's apologies, but note that the link you added, matching rule \bangelfire\.com\/, is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. Please read Wikipedia's external links policy for more information. If the link was to an image, please read Wikipedia's image tutorial on how to use a more appropriate method to insert the image into an article.

[edit] WHOA!
Your work is well-intentioned, but you are screwing up this page by creating DOZENS of red links, eliminating breeds on the list, putting pony breeds in with the horse breeds and generally making a mess! Please stop. Only add new breeds if there are NO articles on wikipedia by any name and if the "breed" is really a breed--that is, can you create an article about it? Please also do NOT change the names in linked articles because this creates a double redirect or a red link.
I don't think you mean to vandalise this page, but you are causing major problems. Please stop. List your additions on the discussion page and we will work to put them in with a more organized manner. Montanabw 21:32, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Copyright violations
Please do not post copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder, as you did to Belgian Warmblood. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites ({{{url}}} in this case) or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If you believe that the article is not a copyright violation, or if you have permission from the copyright holder to release the content freely under the GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL) then you should do one of the following:
-
- If you have permission from the author leave a message explaining the details on the article Talk page and send an email with the message to "permissions-en (at) wikimedia (dot) org". See Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for instructions.
- If a note on the original website states that re-use is permitted under the GFDL or released into the public domain leave a note at Talk:Belgian Warmblood with a link to where we can find that note;
- If you own the copyright to the material: send an e-mail from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en(at)wikimedia(dot)org or a postal message to the Wikimedia Foundation permitting re-use under the GFDL, and note that you have done so on the article Talk page. Alternatively, you may create a note on your web page releasing the work under the GFDL and then leave a note at Talk:Belgian Warmblood with a link to the details.

[edit] Please stop this!
I believe you are well-intentioned, but PLEASE STOP editing the list of horse breeds until you know what you are doing. You are adding "breeds" that are not breeds (The American Albino has been renamed, for example), you are dublicating links (Australian Brumby redirects to Brumby and we aren't supposed to create double redirects in Wikipedia) and you continue to add red links (some are misspellings and some have no article connected to them). At any rate, you are duplicating work that has already been done, you are working from inaccurate sources (there is no such thing as a separate breed or registry for "Egyptian Arabians" for example, that's a marketing thing), and you need to stop editing this list until you understand wikipedia better and are more careful. You have been given two formal warnings, but I wanted to explain why your work is causing problems before I request that the administrators block your account. You appear to be very enthusiastic, but you need to slow down and learn the system before you mess with this article again, please. Montanabw 02:19, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
