[edit] Bull Terrier (Miniature)

Made no sense to me. - Mailer Diablo 05:54, 18 Mar 2005 (UTC)

• Keep and {{cleanup}}. It's a real breed of dog, though. Demi ^T/_C 08:57, 2005 Mar 18 (UTC)
• An why isn't the article at Miniature Bull Terrier? Mgm|^(talk) 09:40, Mar 18, 2005 (UTC)
  • Ahhh, now it made some sense. I'm not into dogs so I thought it was some miniature figure. ;) - Mailer Diablo 09:30, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Keep and cleanup per Wikipedia:WikiProject Dog breeds, wherein various discussions have taken place (and also on Talk:List of dog breeds) about how exactly to choose the names of breeds to put into the list. This would be correct. Elf | Talk 20:33, 18 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, Clean and Rename to Minitature Bull Terrier. DaveTheRed 21:38, 18 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• I was going to say delete as hoax but since people here confirm that this really exists, keep. Radiant_* 09:44, Mar 19, 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Real dog. -- Riffsyphon1024 09:44, Mar 19, 2005 (UTC)

FYI, I have edited the article so it looks like real text instead of a joke. And since Mailer Diablo says it was all a misunderstanding anyway (and as a dog project person--if we had seen it first & cleaned it up, it never shd've been VFDed :-) ), I'm going to remove the vfd. Elf | Talk

• Sorry, but since there is no such thing as 'speedy removal from VfD', please keep the tag for a couple more days. Radiant_* 12:57, Mar 21, 2005 (UTC)

Well, when the original poster said it was a misunderstanding, and the dog project clearly identifies it as a valid article, it's misleading and confusing to leave the vfd on an article that everyone knows is not going to be deleted. In other words--this was a mistake to be listed here; surely the policy doesn't insist that mistakenly labeled vfds must remain so labeled? Elf | Talk 14:58, 21 Mar 2005 (UTC)

• Keep. The name is consistent with the conventions developed by the dog breeds Wikiproject (four out of the five main English language breed associations use this form of the name, only the US doesn't) -- sannse (talk) 13:39, 21 Mar 2005 (UTC)

• Keep, but do make sure that redirects from the US naming convention exist. No early removals, but I think this is a very safe keeper, especially now that the article has been improved. Geogre 14:32, 21 Mar 2005 (UTC)
