On the three deletions of this page

I created the thid beast of dean article several monts ago before an unknown IP began to add to it, just skimming i got the sence that it was mostly a load of crap. however, i assumed good faith and let the IP have time to qualify some the the things it it wrote. Then the page was deleted, so i've re-started thei page in my spare time, made it a one-liner citing a reference to prove its notability. i'll add this page to my watch list, but if anyone notices some parts that seem to be hoaxes -they probably are, for this page as seen alot of vandalim.

Moosepig may be related to the escaped hybrids, a closed wildboar farm released a large number of its animals into the wilds of the forrest. The wild board spread across the Dean region and reached a domestic pig farm rearing Middle White pigs, very large eating pigs, the two species interbred, the halfbreeds born in the farm were enormous wildboar/Midle White crosses which made very good eating and inherrited many of the boar traits and appearance while gaingin the scale of the Middle Whites. Many of thesecrossbreed will have een born in the wilds of the forrest adn there are numerous local sightings of thes enomouspigs wandering the regions roads and occasionaly crossing the vilages. 81.105.173.4 (talk) 10:21, 15 July 2008 (UTC)Richard Powell (forrest local)[reply]

if what you're saying is true, find some references and add it, the main problem with this page is when some adds little things like, "it was last sighted by bill and jerry" if what you say can be references, then adding it will not cause much of a problem. peace!

==stub class==

pretty strait-forward reasons:

its a one-line article
the article itself is marked as a stub, so the talk page should also reflect that classification
