Proposed edits and sources

edit

Add text to Impact on fishing communities: - discuss the threats that fishing regions can have, not only because of climate change but due to how people living in the region can effect production. (Adlb03 (talk) 22:23, 29 October 2012 (UTC))Reply

Add new section: Inland fisheries - discuss how the climate change makes it difficult for inland fisheries to continue to produce consumption. Temperature change means drying up of lakes where fresh water fish come from. Without these lakes and other inland resources for fish there would be a significant decrease in fish production. (Adlb03 (talk) 22:23, 29 October 2012 (UTC))Reply

Add text to Impact on Fish Production: - discuss how the slightest increase in temperature can have very harmful effects on the ocean water. This can be fatal to the fish and to marine plants. (Adlb03 (talk) 22:23, 29 October 2012 (UTC))Reply

Add new section: Over-fishing - discuss how not only is climate change the only reason for loss of fish and fishing industries but also how people over fish and take advantage of the fish production that our oceans and lakes provide for our world. (Adlb03 (talk) 22:47, 5 November 2012 (UTC))Reply

Be bold and add what you think the articles needs. Make sure you cite additions with reliable sources and paraphrase your additions to avoid copy violations. Don't worry about making mistakes. I'll keep a look out and give you a hand if you need it. --Epipelagic (talk) 00:45, 30 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

Peer Review

Hello. I have a couple of suggestions and critiques regarding this particular Wikipedia article.

The article is well-cited and well-researched, but it has some information that goes beyond the scope of the article. In particular, the overfishing section at the end of the article seems out of place. It has little relation to the rest of the article and is another topic altogether. It could have a place if one were to talk about the overall health of fisheries but would require more information and sources than currently provided or asked under the article title. The section under Adaptation and Mitigation has extraneous details in regards to energy alternatives.

In a similar vein, the article does not have a neutral agenda. Examples of bias can be found throughout the article. The section on Adaptation recommends algae as an alternative to water. The section on Overfishing holds a preference for a certain policy: limiting the amount of fish caught. The section under Mitigation ends with a call for action for scientific understanding. The overall language of the article leans toward persuading the reader toward conservation (a reasonable conclusion to reach, however can be done without the persuasive language).

The referenced materials are relatively outdated. The most recent references and citation are from 2012. Other, more recent sources are encouraged. In addition, some of the cited sources have a bias advocating for change. Sources such as the Blue Carbon website are examples of such. Their numbers and statistics may not be wrong or misleading, but further research is needed to reach that conclusion and it needs to be noted that they do have an agenda.

Removed further reading list

I've removed the further reading list, as this seems outdated or overly specific. If any of them are really important rather cite them as inline citations.
