replies: text: Hi Matt, I am sending you a welcome message at your talk page, where, first off, I recommend you change your user name, because Wikipedia does not allow corporate accounts.   It's a pain for businesses, but I would like to help you out by walking you through the various policies and guidelines.  WikiProject Horse racing has some good folks willing to help out as well, but the basic thing is that we require reliable sources for all content, so if you can provide URL links to verify material, that is particularly helpful.  That said, wwe als need to be sure to NOT copy and paste straight off your promotional materials (because most are copyrighted and WP cannot plagiarize copyrighted materials in most cases) and the other is to do what you are dong here, which is to disclose your connections and have others look over the content. I'll try to help you the best I can.  Montanabw(talk) 02:02, 27 June 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: For the 2010 name change, can you provide a news story or some outside source?  Clearly the website does show the new name, but it's helpful to have a third party source for the 2010 date and such.  Local newspaper would be fine, or perhaps if they ran a story in Blood-Horse.

replies: text: Thank you Montanabw! I am very much still in the learning stages but I greatly appreciate the help.  My goal is to add objective/factual data with reliable sources. We did not have a news release highlighting the name change however here are two recent articles from local sources.   You will also find the full name Oaklawn Racing & Gaming on the Oaklawn.com homepage under the paragraph "Welcome to Oaklawn".

replies: text: Hi Mccoldmc! Sorry for the long delay getting back to you, the article title move looks legitimate, so I'll move it.  Let me know if there is information you think this article needs, particularly about the history of the track.  We are an encyclopedia, not a promotional tool, but we always are glad to improve and expand the encyclopedia.  Montanabw(talk) 22:05, 3 July 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Montanabw, you are my new online hero! I have been trying to update our name on Google for 2 months now and it had to be updated here as the two are tied together! I am willing to provide factual well-sourced data and history for you or an editor to approve in the coming months.  Please note that my goal here is to correct any false names/dates or info on wikipedia about Oaklawn in order to improve the accuracy of our page.  Thank you for helping me do that and I look forward to talking with you in the future. Mccoldmc (talk) 18:47, 5 July 2016 (UTC)
