A GA from 2015. Has been orange tagged for and also has some uncited statements which seemingly include and more. Onegreatjoke (talk) 20:05, 25 January 2023 (UTC)
 * This article reads like a press release or a news article and may be largely based on routine coverage.
 * This article's factual accuracy is disputed.
 * These were productive, grain-producing areas, called d'engrais, undeveloped, marginal, predominantly forested land called forestiers, and developing land called d'élèves. Cattle, in particular cows, were used extensively for all types of agricultural work.
 * The French Limousin Herd Book was then created in 1886 to ensure the breed's purity and improvement by recording only those animals that satisfied a strictly enforced breed standard.
 * that the Limousin breed's origins can be traced to the blonde Garonne breed in the fifth century AD. The Garonne breed from the south-west of France was merged into the Blonde d'Aquitaine breed in 1962. The grey Gasconne breed with which Limousin cattle have a close genetic relationship is also reported to have arrived in the south-west of France with the Visigoths also around the fifth century AD.Limousin cattle are identified as members of an "intensively selected" "blond and red" branch of hardy, heavily muscled, and fine-boned working cattle found in south-west Europe. The branch, which is one of several that have influenced cattle breeding in France, comprises a number of Spanish, Portuguese, and French cattle breeds, which possibly evolved from those introduced during a past occupation of Iberia. (this only cites up to a note)
 * Many uncited additions since I passed the article for GA in 2015. Needs quite a bit of work, failing which I'd not oppose the removal of GA status.  Tim riley  talk   20:34, 25 January 2023 (UTC)
 * I'm in favour of a review here. I've made a good number of edits in the last 3 years or so, but not really managed to make any real impression on the substantial and serious problems in the page. I've created or edited many pages on French cattle breeds, and am available to try – to the best of by ability – to make further improvements to this one. In my opinion the page needs prolonged attention from an experienced team of workers with heavy brush-cutting equipment before anything else much can be done.
