Talk:Environmental governance/Archive 1

Untitled
While keeping all the text existing before 3.12.2009, in "Ecological governance", I've:


 * a) merged it with a new longer article, placing each paragraph between different parts of the new structure in order to keep a coherence
 * b) removed the notes of notability, refimprove and cleanup, because I believe that now it is not concerned by these remarks anymore
 * c) the new content, which is much larger than the old one, refers to Environmental governance, and this entry (Environmental governance) redirected to Ecological governance. So I've moved all the content (the merged old and new parts) to the article Environmental governance (this one) and I've redirected Ecological governance to here, and finally,
 * d) In the old parts, I've changed the expression "ecological governance" (9 times) into "environmental governance")

I am open to discussion. Thanks for your understanding

 * Hello Germa.Pelayo, I am an editor and have been working quite a bit on governance articles here. It seems to me you have made the right move. In fact, "environmental governance" is a much more widely accepted term. The only real reference I can find, today, for "ecological governance" dates back to 2007, the Paris Conference for Global Ecological Governance, but even in the articles mentioning this conference, the term used in the discussion is "environmental governance". So I confirm, you seem to have made the right move. This article may still need a little post-editing strictly for language flow. Vedah Eulalia (talk) 17:33, 4 December 2009 (UTC)

 * The "burden of proof" is on the editor adding material, even for "See also" links. — Arthur Rubin  (talk) 00:02, 7 October 2010 (UTC)

Sustainability
Does this really belong in sustainability? — Arthur Rubin (talk) 17:21, 14 October 2010 (UTC)


 * It is hard to see why not. See comment at Template talk:Sustainability.  Zodon (talk) 07:10, 16 October 2010 (UTC)
 * It seems like a rather obvious connection in my perception. __meco (talk) 10:18, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

Very long article
Hello, an interesting but very long article! Have any of the editors/ contributors working on this considered spinning off other smaller articles from it? DA Sonnenfeld (talk) 10:53, 5 November 2011 (UTC)

Copyedit
Per tag, edited this. Feedback encouraged. Comments: OK, that's it. My pity for people who have to write like this and/or read it is infinite. Lfstevens (talk) 01:52, 15 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Yes, way too long. Shorter now! About half as long.
 * Chock full of unsourced claims. Rather than request cites for each item, proably better to strip it down to what is supported and start over. I have not done that.
 * Removed a bunch of unanswered questions.
 * Much of it is a polemic for global government, which is nothing if not unencyclopedic.
 * Attempted to palliate the overwrought tone.
 * One source was unpublished. This violates WP:RS. I removed all refs.
 * Replaced ibids with named refs.
 * Relies to much on Alliance 21 stuff. I didn't remove it.
 * Needs section on fisheries!
 * This could use another complete pass that would further reduce it.
 * It would be good to focus on References which are accessible online. Right now it reads good (so far) but without proper References not really verifiable. prokaryotes (talk) 12:32, 16 April 2014 (UTC)

Definition
The following suggestion was made by User in the 'multiple issues' box in the main article space:

""Definition of 'environmental governance' should be attributed to Ebinezer R. Florano (2008). 'The Study Environmental Governance: A Proposal for a Graduate Program in the Philippines.' A paper submitted and read for the EROPA Seminar 2008, 'Governance in a Triptych: Environment, Migration, Peace and Order' held on 23–25 October 2008 at Traders Hotel in Pasay City, Philippines""

Normative vs. Positive
This environmental governance definition does only cover the normative approach and neglects its positive (or descriptive) approach, i.e. governance understood as how something is governed independently of its goals. Governance existed long before any idea of 'sustainable development' existed. D.S. Cordoba-Bahle (talk) 09:52, 1 May 2017 (UTC)

GEO 423 Evaluation
GEO 423 Student Evaluation of an Article. Hello, my name is Claire and I have some suggestions for this article that I would like to share. I think that some of the content needs to be updated, especially since environmental conditions are ever-changing. I would also suggest that some sections be made more concise as it is very lengthy and a daunting read. We also must make sure that all information is properly cited and relevant to the article. I noticed a few paragraphs with none or few citations. I also feel that Indigenous communities could be better represented in the local governance section. For example, a community in Hā'ena, Kaua'i has recently shown the benefits to the land and the community of local governance and policies with the environment at the forefront. This example can be read about in Mehana Vaughanʻs book Kaiāulu: Gathering Tides. I look forward to collaborating to improve this article!
