":Replying to the above comments-
I too have never heard the term ""chip romney"". I'll remove it as soon as I finish writing this- it's unofficial, and isn't a nickname of sorts.
According the the Romney Marsh page, it does extend into Sussex, so by all means we should re-write the location to include this.
I think what you are referring to in your third point was a bit of a mistranslation. Where I don't really know anything about the place of Romney Marsh, I think the editor who wrote that part meant that one of the reasons Romney's were such a success in this area was because of their hardiness. Perhaps this could be re-written too- but as I said, I don't know too much about the place, so I'll leave that to other editors.
For point four, we really need to find external sources to back this up.
For the black points, we should write a section that incorporates a world-wide view. This article is generally focused on one or two areas of the world, so we should really include the general standards for each country. In Australia, for instance, at the shows I've gone to pink on the nose is generally looked down on, but if it's a 'good' sheep, this is minor, and is overlooked quite a bit. Discoloured hooves, however, tend to have more weight on a judge's decision. It's really a matter of who's judging. I'm not sure about other countries, but I do know in the US pink has a lot more weight on a judge's decision than most other countries.
Agreeing with you on your 6th point. Crimp also needs to be defined.
Point 7- you seem to know more on the uses of Romney wool. Keep in mind that we'll need to find reliable external sources for this information.
Point 8- Romney interest in Australia has dropped off considerably, but as you say in NZ is still very high. Again, see what I said before- the article needs to incorporate a worldwide view.
Altogether, the article needs expansion, more reliable sources and a worldwide view. With enough work, we could even get this up to GA standard. ''''''  talk |
