The registration may have fizzled out, but people are still breeding American White horses that originated from Caleb Thompson's stock. As such, I am hesitant to remove the American White and American Creme Horse Registry page completely. I can try and put some work into improving the page instead.Miscellaneous edits (talk)05:20, 11 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I'm interested in input on this. There's a list of horse-drawn carts in theCart article, and several very long lists inHorse-drawn vehicles (HDV). I'm thinking we should make HDV the master list for all vehicles. We could split the section on "Passenger vehicles" into two-wheel and four-wheel, and then use{{Excerpt}} to dynamically copy the two-wheeled passenger vehicles intoCart § Horse-drawn carts. We could do the same for "Load carrying vehicles".
HDV already is a list-article, whether it's formally tagged as one, or titled as one, or neither.
We could use the{{Horse-drawn carriages}} template at least as a guide to ensuring each one is entered into HDV somewhere. (Note: Navigation templates do not show on mobile devices, so 50% of readers will never see that navbar.) For inclusion in the lists, I would expect each entry to start with a bluelink, even if it's a redirect into another article. Redlinks might be okay if we are planning on making at least a stub or redirect-to-a-paragraph in the near future.
I decided to nix the idea of using{{Excerpt}}.Coach (carriage) already has a section explaining types and some names, so it doesn't need a separate section to excerpt from HDV.Carriage doesn't have a list of vehicles, and probably doesn't need one; it already has a list of carriage museums, which probably should be split out to its own list-article.Wagon is already split into type groupings, so it won't need an excerpt. ForCart, I suggest we select a fewrepresentative items to list, add a{{see also}} to the HDV section, and leave the bulk in HDV.
I moved some things around in HDV that helped clarify for me the organization of the article. I think we should make the two current subsections into four, which might look like:
Passenger vehicles
Two‑wheeled
Four‑wheeled
Load‑carrying vehicles
Two‑wheeled
Four‑wheeled
Vehicles that come in both two and four wheeled versions can be in both lists (there are only a few anyway). Travois aren't vehicles and should be moved to 'other'. Sleighsare vehicles.
