The claim that "Hanoverian influence is absent" is untrue. Please refer to to Stallion Studbook Search webpage [[1]] to review the approved Danish sires. The first one I clicked on was sired by a Hanoverian. Countercanter (talk) 14:06, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

At this point in time, no one else appears to be actively editing the warmblood articles (and the original writers had a lot of unsourced material), so I'd say this is time to WP:BE BOLD and just tune it up, you seem to know what you've been talking about so far! (grin). If you go off the deep end or do anything completely goofy, I'll dive in, grab you by your shirt collar and drag you out! Montanabw(talk) 00:42, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

2. Interstallion survey results [5] provides reliable information on the goals and population of the registry.
