Stop deleting contributions (which are documented with citations) to mislead users and sway the article to your "pro-rodeo" stance. Further deletions will be reported as VANDALISM. If you have issues, please discuss them on this page before deleting material and replacing it with your "pro-rodeo" contributions. While it's OK to cite rules in the PRCA book to support your various claims that animals are never exploited, bruised, broken, injured, abused, or killed in rodeo, you should not be deleting material from other contributors that fly in the face of your claims.

- This can begin by having you not delete those viewpoints with which you do not agree. I am restoring deleted material and am keeping most of yours, but toning down some of the POV language. I would appreciate it if you could kindly avoid personal attacks. Montanabw(talk) 06:55, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Parenthetical phrase
"The ASPCA, taking a position not otherwise addressed either by other animal rights groups nor the rodeo industry [citation needed], notes that practice sessions are often the location of more severe abuses than competitions.[1] The above italicised phrase should be sourced. We don't know that every animal rights group nor the rodeo industry have not addressed this issue. The cited source does not indicate other animal groups and rodeo have not addressed the issue. The sentence could stand adequately written thus (and in agreement witht he cited source): "The ASPCA notes that practice sessions are often the location of more severe abuses than competitions."
