Proposed deletion of Old time farm shepherd

The article Old time farm shepherd has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Already covered by Farm Collie.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. [End of standard message]

Hi. This is interesting material, but I can't really see how this type differs from the Farm Collie more generally. At the very least the existence of this as a breed needs some independent refs – as far as I can see most or perhaps all the refs are from enthusiasts' books and web sites, which are rarely objective. At present it looks to me as if the type could be covered better by expanding Farm Collie. Richard New Forest (talk) 14:02, 13 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Richard New Forest - I am new at this so I am unsure if this is the correct way to respond to your comments. Thank you for the feedback, I honestly had the same concern when I wrote it, I have lots of references here but not a lot of solid documentation. To address one of your comments, a "farm collie" is widely recognized as a "type" while the "Old Time Farm Shepherd" is a "breed" so they are not exactly the same. I am willing to submit to whatever you decide however and if this article gets deleted I will try to work some of this information into the farm collie article. --Palatkwapi (talk) 14:59, 13 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
