Hello. Your recent edit to Labrador Retriever appears to have added the name of a non-notable entity to a list that normally includes only notable entries. In general, a person, organization or product added to a list should have a pre-existing article before being added to most lists. If you wish to create such an article, please first confirm that the subject qualifies for a separate, stand-alone article according to Wikipedia's notability guideline. Thank you.

 * I added the source:
 * https://abc30.com/tessa-arson-dog-fresno/11694080/
 * The source is the local ABC news station in Fresno, CA. Do you need more?
 * https://beafirehero.org/get-involved/tessa/
 * She retired today, which is why I added her. She is notable with 249 cases and 126 arson cases.

 * Read the template: In general, a person, organization or product added to a list should have a pre-existing article before being added to most lists. If you think the dog is notable then WP:WTAF. Meters (talk) 03:15, 31 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Oh, ok. So create a page for her, and then think to it in the paragraph I added. With the paragraph being a smaller subset of her bigger page. Is that the proper method? I can do that, I will just have to make a more substantial page than the small paragraph I created initially. Sofakinbd (talk) 04:06, 31 March 2022 (UTC)
 * If you can get an article accepted then there will be no problem listing her, but I'm not seeing any particular notability from the sources you listed (or anything that lists her breed). Local public interest mentions of police or fire dogs is not sufficient to show notability. Meters (talk) 04:42, 31 March 2022 (UTC)
