Hi!, I wrote up a new article about a noteworthy young horse, and I think I followed the rules ok, but it doesn't appear when I search Wikipedia for it, is this normal - the article is about Wrath of Titans, Thanks

Following up: I notice a problem in that the links are going to similar pages, I never noticed this before

in particular:

Sadlers Wells - calls up the theatre, and not the racehorse / sire

Thunder and Roses - calls up an album, and the racehorse

Gordon Elliot - calls up someone other than the trainer (when I read Wikipedia I got the preferred pages automatically - is that to do with browsing history ? , and/or is it recommended to specify eg. Sadlers Wells (horse)

Many Thanks if you can help !

It seems that you have never created a page as you say. See these logs, Special:Contributions/Horse racing, Articles created, they show none. Try Wikipedia:Article wizard if you wish to create an article. Regards, Krishna Chaitanya Velaga (talk • mail) 08:41, 6 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Your article looks pretty good to me. In order to get a horse trainer or horse, you'll have to disambig by typing the name and then horse or horse trainer in parentheses. (Just as you guessed above). White Arabian Filly ^Neigh 21:35, 6 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
