message: I am tempted to put the advert tag here.  The article is not written in an entirely detached manner and it tends toward anthropomorphism.  It actually says that this breed has a sense of humor.--Counsel 23:33, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I will take a closer look at the article.  The breed may not have a sense of humor, but they certainly can act like fools. Michaelbusch 00:34, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Oorang Story Bryan Cummins Bryan Cummins.jpg

message: Under "Eyes" it says 
*Some Airedales do suffer from eye diseases, such as congenital retina condition. This is Nigel, a young Airedale, suffering from congenital retina condition, and totally blind by the age of six years.
This is followed by a ref to http://mojoairedale.blogspot.com.  The reffed page does not contain the word "retina" and the one occurrence of "eye" refers to humans.  The picture shows a dog with white irises.  IANA veterinarian or an opthamologist, but it looks like cataracts to me. I suppose it's possible for a retinal condition to make the retina so reflective that the eyes look white, but it seems unlikely, and I have never heard of such.   Randall Bart    Talk   20:27, 7 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I've fixed the article somewhat - that isn't a suitable reference.  The picture here lists it as a degenerative retinal condition and what you are seeing here is indeed the retina - a dog's pupils usually fill almost the entire exposed eye.

message: The article states that Airedale is the largest terrier. I'm not a dog expert but I'm pretty sure that Black Russian Terrier should have that title, not Airedale. --Haxflo (talk) 01:05, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Largest Terrier? 

message: based on the comments on this talk page and on the amount of time some of these issues have been here and remain unresolved and undiscussed, I have added the "wikify" tag. 207.237.198.152 (talk) 15:49, 29 October 2008 (UTC)

message: The two largest paragraphs in the "History" section (3rd and 4th) are copied verbatim from "Miner, _Airedale Terriers (A Complete Pet Owner's Manual)_, Barron's, 1998" - pages 6 and 7.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.70.119.188 (talk) 17:39, 17 January 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Copyright problem 

message: I just did a series of edits to this page, mainly wikifying a lot of it (including templating the references) and general copyediting.  It's probably not complete though.  Should this have some kind of minor cleanup tag? --Knockwood (talk) 11:33, 5 March 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  My edits: wikifying and editing 

message: I changed the origins comment at the beginning of the article. It originally stated that the Airedale originates from the Black and Tan and an Otterhound. In reality the Airedale originates from a Welsh Terrier and an Otterhound. If you have any doubts check out the picture of the Welsh and you'll say "wow! Look a small Airedale!"  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 184.151.114.110 (talk) 20:31, 27 November 2013 (UTC)
