Hi there! You recently commented on my article about GTR Patricks Vindicator, a notable miniature horse. I have added multiple sources and citations to my article to prove credibility. These include magazine articles, links to a pedigree and outside websites. Thank you! PatrickTheMiniatureHorse (talk) 03:59, 4 February 2016 (UTC)

I noticed your article was declined at Articles for Creation, and that can be disappointing.

Declines
editI noticed your article got declined twice. I'd recommend that, instead of resubmitting it, you just move it to mainspace. It's virtually impossible to get any article about an individual horse through AfC unless it won the Kentucky Derby or Rolex Three Day Event or something else huge. (I've created something like 50 articles, mostly about Tennessee Walkers, Saddlebreds, Morgans, trainers and shows, and never used AfC.) If you want me to move it, or have questions, ask on my talk (neigh) page. White Arabian Filly (Neigh) 00:25, 20 February 2016 (UTC)
Hi there White Arabian Filly. Thank you so much for reaching out to me. I'm new to Wikipedia and if you would do that for me I would very much appreciate it. There are tens of thousands of people across the world who greatly disagree, that he is notable. :) Thanks so much, and I hope this gets to you!

- I have moved it to GTR Patricks Vindicator. I agree, if he's being written about by Horsechannel.com and all these newspapers he is notable. I've written about horses with far worse sourcing (mostly because they were dead 50 years ago and newspapers from then are mostly not online).

- You are going to have to tone it down a bit though, it kind of reads like an advertisement. I'll let WAF help you, but just saying, we have Kentucky Derby winners with shorter articles than this one! (smile). Montanabw(talk) 06:37, 24 February 2016 (UTC)
