This article reads like a marketing brochure - fooey.[edit]

Of the nine sources cited in the references, seven lead to the website of the organization itself. It's a bit fishy, and I think violates the conflict of interest guideline. Psho (talk) 06:22, 12 July 2010 (UTC)psho[reply]

I started this article and have edited it occasionally since then. I am not now, nor have I ever been, an officer, director, employee, or client of Earthjustice. I can't speak for everyone else who's edited, but I certainly have no conflict of interest.

It's quite common that an article about an organization will lean heavily on that organization's website. Feel free to add additional information from other reliable sources. JamesMLane t c 18:43, 12 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This goes beyond "leaning heavily" and straight into "marketing brochure". Oathed (talk) 01:06, 23 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

ZeppoShemp (talk) 17:27, 8 December 2017 (UTC)I agree that this reads like a press release. I have made some wording changes (e.g., "focuses on cases that preserve wildlife and wild lands" I added "as defined by Earthjustice or their associates"). I also cited four sources that are not glowing (two negative/opposition/mixed reactions to Earthjustice policies, and two court rulings they lost). hopefully the whole thing is now a little more NPOV[reply]
