Talk:Dry dung fuel

Work needed for section "Dry dung versus moist dung"

This section needs work: "Dry dung versus moist dung". The sentences about the research work funded by BMGF do not fit here, the image of that prototype by RTI is not really relevant, no source is given (better information is actually on the BMGF page). Also the BMGF Reivent the Toilet Challenge has nothing to do with animal dung, only human excreta. I am still thinking about how best to re-arrange this (or moving this rather to the page of "reuse of excreta", but I wanted to flag this here in case someone is watching this page and has some good ideas.

I have made some of the announced changes now. Moved some content to the page on incinerating toilets. EvM-Susana (talk) 10:31, 8 April 2015 (UTC)

1891 reference

Do we really need multiple references to a book published in 1891? I suppose it provides some historical context of animal dung ignition in the 19 century, but clearly it has little to say about current practices. I am inclined to remove it altogether - or add it to a historical practices section. JMWt (talk) 07:41, 13 May 2015 (UTC)

I agree with you, seems totally crazy to cite a book from 1891 so many times! EvM-Susana (talk) 21:43, 13 May 2015 (UTC)

I am a bit concerned this reference is still present and is still being used to describe current practice. These should be added to a historical section or removed. Not reintroduced into the text as if this is evidence of current practice. JMWt (talk) 14:36, 1 October 2015 (UTC)

I think this has now been resolved, right?

Good ref tidy-up whoever did that (not sure why I thought I needed to keep listing the ref) but overall I think the ref can be lost altogether. I don't think it really adds much to this article. JMWt (talk) 13:20, 6 October 2015 (UTC)

Agreed, have removed that sentence now.EvM-Susana (talk) 21:17, 6 October 2015 (UTC)

Fix up references

If someone has some time, can you please fix up the references so that they clearly state their year of publication? Most of them only state the date of retrieval. EvM-Susana (talk) 10:38, 6 October 2015 (UTC)
