Talk:Welsh Pony and Cob

Pre-GA work
, I added 7 or 8 refs in necessary places and tossed all of the cite needed tags (I HOPE), fixed a few typos and did some rephrasing in places, etc. A couple of the links to the UK society's site appear to be dead, or at least they're giving me an error message. I tried to find stuff about the influence on the Morgan, but didn't have much luck there, although I did find a source from the Morgan Museum. I also found something about the dun gene. I moved the stuff in the trivia section to the history section. White Arabian Filly Neigh 00:48, 12 March 2016 (UTC)


 * It's a BIG improvement. I'm debating whether to put the four types into an illustrated chart (like we have for the spot patterns at leopard complex) or some sort of structured image gallery (like the life cycle images at rainbow trout).  We have a ways to go, but the first step is to clean up and source (or toss) what's already there and your work has been very helpful.    Montanabw (talk)  02:08, 13 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Hmm. The leopard gene-type one could be useful. I can work on finding the current urls for the deadlinks. Apparently they moved the pages. White Arabian Filly  Neigh 16:04, 13 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Sounds good, the wayback machine can find old versions if no new ones can be found. Dang linkrot! I'll put the chart on my to-do list (Need a qpq for DYK?  I just put up Ann T. Bowling).  Montanabw (talk)  20:53, 13 March 2016 (UTC)

Mind if I help a bit? Added a few things in uses and a reference to use. Horsegeek (talk) 18:41, 2 April 2016 (UTC)Horsegeek
 * No, go ahead. White Arabian Filly  Neigh 19:32, 2 April 2016 (UTC)


 * Sourcing is the biggest need, first. USEF and UK breed society rules in particular.  Montanabw (talk)  05:46, 3 April 2016 (UTC)

Broken links
Reference [1] is broken. I found this page http://imh.org/exhibits/online/breeds-of-the-world/europe/welsh-ponies-and-cobs/, but it doesn't support the following points in the Wikipedia article text: 1. It says that Trotting Comet was foaled in 1836, not 1840. 2. It also suggests that the mare of True Briton was a Welsh Cob rather than an Arab.

Reference [23] is also broken, but I am unsure what it refers to: A. If it is the characteristics of sections C and D then it needs to be changed to this page. https://wpcs.uk.com/join-the-society/breed-info/ B. If if is the cob's use for driving, then it is mentioned on this page. https://wpcs.uk.com/join-the-society/history-of-the-society/
