Talk:Manitoba Eco-Network

I have made some major changes to the article. As I said in the summary of my changes, I work for the eco-network, so of course there is an internal bias. However, I've made a strong effort to stick to the facts, and in my humble opinion it is now less biased by pov than when I started, partially because of the citations I have made, partially because of my language, and partially because having more information in the article allows readers to form their own opinions more easily.

I'd have loved to put in any opposing positions, but there aren't any organizations that I can think of that directly oppose us, nor are there any controversies, so it is sort of centred from the perspective of an environmentalist. I don't know how to tie in an opposing view and make it relevant to an article on the eco-network, unless I could find some sort of article directly mentioning the organization and putting forth an article against them.

If anyone has any such information, please come forward and edit it into the article; it would improve it.

Likewise, I've been using Wikipedia for many years but have rarely edited anything, and I don't really know much about how things work here. If anyone thinks it's worthwhile to re-assess this article, go ahead. Also, I removed the tag at the top of the article that claimed that the tone 'may need to be revised'. I did so because I felt the tone was more factual and more professional after my edits, but since I don't really know the standards, I may have taken it away too soon. If that was the case, I apologize, feel free to repost it.

Sincerely, Mikhail Kolybaba (User:Mikhailkolybaba)


 * Overall, it is inappropriate for someone who works for the organization to be writing its Wikipedia article. Please see WP:COI. As for the article itself, it needs more information on what makes it a notable organization, and this information needs to be from reliable third-party, independent sources. Right now, this article is entirely sourced from the organization and its partners, which is unacceptable. It would still class it as a "Start class", because while there is much more information, it is not well organized, it is only half-cited and it requires outside sources to help booster its notability.

Assessment
I have assessed this article as a Start Class, as it contains more detail and organization than a Stub Class, and of low importance, as it is a highly specialized topic within Canada. Cheers, CP 17:50, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
