Sheep farming in Wales

Created/expanded by Rosiestep (talk), Martinevans123 (talk), Nvvchar (talk), and Dr. Blofeld (talk). Nominated by Dr. Blofeld (talk) at 10:20, 27 June 2013 (UTC).

  • Symbol confirmed.svg new enough, long enough, follows policy, hook has inline citation, did QPQ. Zeete (talk) 20:34, 29 June 2013 (UTC)
  • Symbol question.svg The image does not appear in the article. MANdARAX  XAЯAbИAM 07:40, 30 June 2013 (UTC)
  • Image is now added in the article.--Nvvchar. 16:13, 30 June 2013 (UTC)
I'll remove it again. The image has nothing to do with sheep farming, the subject of the article. It relates to the processing of wool, which is by no means the same thing. In addition, it is quite incorrect and misleading to link the words "wool industry" in the hook to the article on farming. Sheep farming is but one single stage in the wool industry.

There's very little reason for there to be any mention of the village in the article at all. But, if you don't want to do that, how about:
