Miniature Golden Retriever

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Article would require a rewrite to read like an encyclopedia entry -- check history to see the worst of it -- and no reliable sources could be found. Designer breed registries have very few restrictions and aren't a true measure of notability. &mdash; anndelion    &#8251;   22:08, 13 April 2011 (UTC)

 * Merge into the list at List of dog hybrids. Miyagawa   (talk)  18:37, 16 April 2011 (UTC)
 * "There is a very large number of possible combinations, and the following table only lists those most often bred deliberately." -- do you think this should be reworded (I'd personally be in favor of a somewhat more inclusive list), or does the Mini Golden apply here? More out of curiosity/a desire for consistency than anything. &mdash; anndelion    &#10059;   19:23, 16 April 2011 (UTC)
 * That's a good point. That list does need a clearer set of parameters and some specific referencing. In which case I'd simply change my vote to Redirect to Golden Retriever (without merging any of the information in the article). Regards the dog hybrid list - I think it needs to be completely overhauled and I can't say I even agree with the title, as they're not a hybrid, they're a crossbreed. But this is getting off topic for this discussion. :) Miyagawa   (talk)  09:33, 18 April 2011 (UTC)

Merge to Golden Retriever. Lack of reliable sources on this designer breed, seems to be mainly one person's personal breeding program that they are trying to market as a new "breed". Dana boomer (talk) 15:28, 2 May 2011 (UTC) Merge To Golden Retriever or list of dog hybrids. The lack of sources that are reliable and make this seem more like an advertisement than a meaningful encyclopedia article. i kan reed (talk) 15:24, 6 May 2011 (UTC)
