I'll be reviewing this article. Here are the issues I found:
I'll put the article on hold for a week and will pass it when the issues are fixed. Wizardman Operation Big Bear 02:54, 11 July 2011 (UTC)
Fair enough; on the first one, I just figured it would be easier for readers, but they probably won't care one way or the other. I don't have any other concerns, so I'll pass the article as a GA. Wizardman Operation Big Bear 20:15, 11 July 2011 (UTC)
I know this was raised in the GA review, but I'm very uncomfortable about those awards. The Tb Heritage site says "There were no championships awarded in any official manner until 1936" and then lists "winners" for the previous sixty years! Any idea how this list was arrived at, or when? What does the Hewitt book say? I raised the same point a few days ago on the American Champion Older Male Horse page.
