Talk:Barney (dog)

message: Why on Earth is this on Wikipedia? The 'reference' given only gives a passing mention to the dog, and doesn't establish notability at all. Blast  09.04.07 0352 (UTC)
It's a sad thing to see the article on this dog is much longer than the article on the president of Suriname, Ronald Venetiaan. Could we at least merge the articles on Bush his pets into one? Baldrick90 (talk) 14:22, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Lazy journalese. 

message: If there is an article about a dog for no merit that being owned by the president of one country, then Wikipedia should have individual articles of ALL the dogs owned by any president of any country.
And since cats are not less worth than dogs, then you should do the same with cats.
And well, who said a hamster is less important than a cat? Or a rat? I mean I guess you can make an article about a tie owned by some president of some country, or about the cigars smoked by other, is just that Wikipedia seems tilted all the time in the same direction, and it is starting to stink.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.244.1.78 (talk) 22:33, 28 February 2014 (UTC)
