Talk:Miniature Fox Terrier
From Academic Kids
After discussion on Talk:List of dog breeds I'm not sure what to put in the table under "Classification". Previously I would have put "Not currently recognised by the major registries", but perhaps this isn't a good idea? I think we need something to explain why there is nothing listed, perhaps miss out the word "currently" which might imply recognition is a goal? Quill, what do you think? -- sannse (talk) 15:57, 15 Jun 2004 (UTC)
- Yes, I was going to write to you about this, last night, but for some reason decided that sleep was a better idea!
- The problem with even writing 'not recognized' without the 'currently' is that there is an implication that this is a bad thing. Can we not put 'Independent' with a link to the classifying club? For example, for a well-established breed such as this one, Classification: Independent, Mini Foxie Club of Australia, Inc. (MFCA) Breed Standard: http://www.minifoxie.org/breed.html
- Similarly, Classification: Independent, English Jack Russell Club of America, Koolie Club of Australia--you get the picture, with a link to their breed standard if they have one (although, I suggest that if they DON'T have one, the fact that they're 'under development' should be indicated in the article!)

- Sleep!? We'll have none of that round here if you please ;)
- yes, that sounds fine to me - I've added that to this article (I'd already linked that standard in the table too, so that works well). I've put the link in the table as a wikilink, the association probably deserves an article, but if that's not the consensus it can be changed. -- sannse (talk) 21:11, 15 Jun 2004 (UTC)
