[edit] Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit you made to Catahoula Cur, did not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use the sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. The article is called "Catahoula Cur". If you think it needs to be renamed then discuss it on the talk page, but don't rewrite the article as if it had already been renamed.

- WP:COMMONNAME determines what we name articles. That may be the name the breed association uses, or it may not be. Meters (talk) 17:10, 27 April 2018 (UTC)
- Simply saying that the article title needs to be changed without giving any reasons [1] is not a useful discussion. We already know that in your opinion the name is wrong. What we need to discuss is any policy based reasons n why the article should be renamed, and what alternative names should be considered. Meters (talk) 17:50, 27 April 2018 (UTC)
