Navdomos, before you do too much more work on Messara, you need to know a couple of wikipedia's guidelines. The first is if something is footnoted, DON'T change the material unless you either also change the footnote to reflect your new source, or at least check the existing footnote to see if your new material still can be checked against that reference. On these articles with references, you can't just go change stuff because it messes up the citations. It is clear that you have information on this breed, but you need to add it with proper research sources, not just external links at the bottom of the page, OK? Feel free to drop me a line on my talk page if you need help. Montanabw(talk) 18:37, 7 July 2011 (UTC)
Messara entry on List of horse breeds
[edit]You've had your addition to the Messara entry on the List of horse breeds article reverted (i.e. removed) twice by two different editors. The solution is not to add it a third time (as you did) but rather to respect the fact that no other entries on that list have explanations for them. You need to discuss the edit on the article's talk page, because adding the information a third time is edu warring and can get your account blocked from editing if you do it too often. See WP:3RR for more information. Ealdgyth - Talk 18:44, 7 July 2011 (UTC)
