Wagyu
Hi, and welcome to Wikipedia! Am I correct that you used to edit as Reservecattleco? I reverted your edits due to the issues mentioned on the Wagyu talk page. The addition is not acceptable in its current form. Please discuss the issue there before re-adding.--Larry (talk) 23:30, 20 July 2013 (UTC)


 * Yes you are correct in the first statement. So I changed my user name like it suggested. I am not geek squad and I'm not familiar with adding to this site, I attempted to put the entire history of the Wagyu exportation from Japan and importation into the USA. You would think that would already be on here. If you want this page to be accurate then ask me for the information again and set it up how you want it. If you don't want the most valuable info on the topic that's fine to.

 * Wikipedia can be tricky at first, but there are some important guidelines for adding information. As noted above, it would be best to discuss this on the Wagyu talk page, not here, so that other people can join in. However, I'll restate my comments here:
 * (1) The edit summary made a reference to the American Wagyu Association, but I didn't see anything in an admittedly quick glance at that web site. If there's a specific reference, this needs to be added to the article, not just in the summary. In other words, what's the url for the page that includes the information you provided? I checked the main page, and it wasn't there. If it's a book, we need the title, author, and page number. Without that (a reliable citation), the information you provided cannot be added.
 * (2) Second, if a citation were available, I might have tried to clean up the language, but I can't even figure out what you're trying to say.
 * (3) The text makes it look as if it's been copied verbatim from some table or something. Is this true? If so, this would be a copyright violation, and would have to be removed immediately. Wikipedia is very strict about this.--Larry (talk) 18:45, 21 July 2013 (UTC)

Here is a link to a better source. This guy was part of the importation of Wagyu, you won't find it in a book.

My attention span is limited on this. I don't even know how to go to a forum your talking about. I own Wagyu myself. My first research prior to getting started was Wikipedia. Most of the information on Wagyu is not very good and has no mention of how the breed mysteriously appeared outside of Japan. Also it mentions Wagyu were crossed with angus in the US which misleads consumers and makes them think no full blood Wagyu are here. As a matter of fact all Wagyu that left Japan came to the USA before a very very few left America to go to Australia. You can also find some information on the American Wagyu association and this link.

Here is another link that explains a little about Australia's part in it.

That is about all I can do. If you want and have the skills to get this consolidated and onto the Wagyu page that would be great. Thanks
