Templates

edit

Besides other problems, the article has way too many navigational templates at the bottom. The way to get readers to skip anything is to provide too many choices. This is a good (bad) example. Student7 (talk) 22:06, 27 July 2009 (UTC)Reply


Changes

edit

The page asks for citations and references. I have used numerous references including State California Law and United States Law along with Sacramento Bee newspaper articles. I have tried to cite and reference the article to the best of my knowledge. Every one has been deleted. Even changing who the current director of the department is has been deleted. Obviously someone doesn't want the truth posted. --Stealth mountain lion (talk) 00:38, 24 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

I'm not sure what the big truth about Fish & Game is, or why anyone would want to keep it out. Perhaps there are other issues, such as your additions affecting other references. Try more specific changes in smaller chunks, such as just fixing the current director's name. I'll attempt to keep an eye on the changes, too. Sχeptomaniacχαιρετε 17:27, 24 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

Neutrality of POV

edit

The section on Marine Wardens lacks citations and is clearly written using emotional language appealing to the public for greater funding. If this was in a primary source, like a newspaper, just cite the news paper. "According to the SF Chronicle, ...". Other primary source material from legislative budget hearings on the matter may be useful for painting a more accurate picture. Just because we can provide some link that proves it has been said, doesn't mean it should be portrayed as factually accurate. I think public expenditures are up there with biographies of living persons as far as the tendency for us to lose objectivity.
