Cite 2 is called "Big Silver Marten Rabbit" but actually links to the homepage https://thebritishrabbitcouncil.org/. Cite 3 is called "The Big Silver Marten" but links to the homepage https://arba.net/, similar for ref 4.

Link 5 is "The history of the Big Silver Marten Rabbit" but the link is "Silver Marten Rabbit" referring to Silver Marten rabbit and makes no mention of the Big variety and does not verify the line it's a cite for. Ref 6 is called "Big Silver Marten Rabbit Breed" but the link "Silver Marten Rabbit" does not have the word "big" at all. The same goes for Ref 8, and none of 6,7,8 verify the line they cite. DestinationFearFan why are none of these actually about the Big Silver Marten? Reywas92 Talk 21:00, 20 January 2021 (UTC) reply

Those links should have went to the American Breeders Association and British Rabbit Council pages on the Silver Martin Rabbit. I am unsure why it just went to there homepages. Anyway, I have deleted those two sources from the article. DestinationFearFan ( talk) 21:41, 20 January 2021 (UTC) reply

Those links have titles that refer to the Silver Martin breed (not the Big type), but they have some sentences and sections about the Big Silver Martin breed, which is why I included them. DestinationFearFan ( talk) 22:21, 20 January 2021 (UTC) reply

  • Delete Per the article it is not a recognized breed. I do not find any significant mentions of it. Jeepday ( talk) 17:45, 26 January 2021 (UTC) reply

Jeepday The articles Altex rabbit, Armenian Marder, Bauscat rabbit, Blanc de Popielno, and more are also not recognized by those groups, but are still pages. I think this article helps and adds information for the different breeds. I hope you reconsider. DestinationFearFan ( talk) 21:58, 26 January 2021 (UTC) reply
