Talk:Hammock camping

Maintaining neutrality in listing commercial hammock suppliers.
I seem to sense a bias towards DD Hammocks here. Noticing they are listed first and are the only company linked in the references concerns me as it relates to fairness with other suppliers. My proposal is to remove DD Hammocks from the links (all of these commercial suppliers are readily found at Hammock Forums) and then include a link to Hammock Forums' 'Manufacturers and Services' page. http://www.hammockforums.net/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=2. In addressing the order of appearance I propose listing the two most popular brands (Hennessey and Warbonnet) alphabetically followed by the other manufacturers following alphabetically.-- Canad iandy  talk  01:44, 4 October 2011 (UTC)

@Jezhotwells. Thanks, this is helpful for us in improving the article. I still think Speer's "Hammock Camping..." text is neutral based on its publication date predating any serious commercialization of hammock camping and also the reality that it has served as pretty much the only text on the subject for years. Kind of the HC bible for many. And this from a guy who has never purchased a Speer product.

@all. I have now fixed one of the ISBN links, added a third book reference (Baden-Powell), and added a couple sentences in the lead to reference the sections on commercial manufacturers as well as suspension and amenities. I know we still have a ways to go, but I'm not giving up on this article. There is a large community of HC enthusiasts and I think this makes this a worthy topic for WP.
