Hi, thanks for your edit, however you have omitted to add any references as required by this encyclopedia. This would normally result in the material being removed, but I've left it in for the moment, in the hope that you can add them. Please see Wikipedia:Verifiability and Wikipedia:Reliable sources which are part of the Wikipedia:Five pillars. Please also be aware of Wikipedia:Conflict of interest.

The references are complicated and disjointed and don't follow all of the info at this time. A lot of the stuff comes from books from Jaimie Jackson, Pete Ramey etc, the rest flows from websites showing how well new procedures work. I work with vets to demonstrate this methodology and it is hard to find precise references for everything, so a demostration will usually answer all questions. In text it is hard to demostrate the function of this method, I could write papers through veterinary channels, then I would be compromised in self promoting. I can provide references for the basis of the methodology and for the known stuff from chris pollitt. The healing time frames would still come under Original research as I lead the world in healing times for foundered horses. Unfortunately it all does not make sense in little pieces. I hope I can build the references you would need to meet the requirements. If you can point out the bits that need to be referenced I can find the stuff that backs it up. Some of the support comes from farrier texts, though only a paragraph or so. To reference the publication would create confusion unless you knew the precise paragraph. Anyway I will work to build the refernce list needed.--Thehoofsmith (talk) 01:24, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
