Talk:German Riding Pony

Name
"reitpony" doesn't appear to be the normal name in English (see vs ), perhaps the article should be moved to "German Riding Pony" with a disambiguation/redirect from "reitpony"? – Zedla (talk) 08:48, 5 December 2007 (UTC)


 * I did create a redirect at German riding pony. Basically, I've never heard of any in the USA.  I know that some horse breeds keep their foreign name here, such as the Selle Francais. Probably not a huge issue either way.   I basically grabbed the article in German wikipedia, ran it through Google translation to get the gist of it and then edited it into something approaching readable form.  (Had to cut a lot about the competition elements, the translation made no sense due to the terms of art used).  I'll dig around and see if I can find any English sources on it.  Maybe leave it like this for a couple days to see what shakes out?  Another editor may be able to help too, we shall see.   Montanabw (talk) 08:58, 5 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Hmm. You may be right.  Looks like there have been some imports to the USA and they are using the English name.  I can redirect and add some English sources.  One good article in the bunch, most of the rest were advertising.  Montanabw (talk) 09:02, 5 December 2007 (UTC)


 * It's no big deal to me either way. There's one link in there claiming the international breed name is G.R.P. (potential source for the article too) – Zedla (talk) 09:07, 5 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Works for me. Too bad that link provides so little info, good photos, though.  Montanabw (talk) 09:30, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
