Pentagon
editThe Pentagon should link to the Department of Defense not to the shape. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.180.61.194 (talk) 05:39, 25 August 2010 (UTC)

References
editIt seems that this type of article about this type of subject should not have a bulk of its references come from media and non-peer reviewed material. It would be too easy to cite diluted material from an outlet that has an ulterior political agenda.Finkid221994 (talk) 10:13, 8 March 2017 (UTC)
organization
editThis is a very well written article with extensive detail on the agency. It is very helpful to have an article with separate sections for history and goals. This will make a good article for research and or paper writing. Some of the sources are vague, however there are multiple that are great for further research on the subject. Caileer (talk) 15:53, 9 March 2017 (UTC) This article did an extremely good job of staying on topic, leaving out any unnecessary information or information not directly related to the NCTC. All the information appears to be current and to me nothing appeared to be missing that should be included in the article.Awbritt (talk) 16:32, 9 March 2017 (UTC)
Problems with the article
editThe article's sources are not scholarly. With the exception of the FBI as a credible source there are no other sources that are not newspapers. Newspapers can be credible, but they tend to blend bias arguments into their facts. There are plenty of agencies that work with the NCTC, and they should have more information to give to this source. As well, I would have liked to see the department's budget mentioned in this article. This allows for the readers to really get a grasp on what kinda work they do since the technical work is classified.Carlyabbott (talk) 02:31, 10 March 2017 (UTC)
Information Quantity
editThere should be more information in this article based on the amount of references listed. The information is interesting there just seems to not be an abundance of it. This article is very informative and helpful in understanding what the NCTC goals are. Hammockdude1 (talk) 18:56, 10 March 2017 (UTC)
