Talk:Old-Growth Forest Network

Beginning

I have created a draft of the Old-Growth Forest Network article and have made subsequent edits to a) make the tone more objective and "encyclopedic" and b) to begin to add references wherever possible. I expect to add more in the near future. I trust I am moving in the right direction.

More references

Here is a list of additional references I plan to add to the article:

I believe that the reviewers' comments have been adequately addressed. How should I proceed? Willcook3 (talk) 21:36, 12 December 2014 (UTC)

Some big issues

I've started to try rework this article but I've noticed most of it's content is a copy past of the old forest growth website. A lot of the article reads as trying to inform the reader about old growth forests instead of about the charity and is very informal. The organizational structure section will need to be redone but I'm starved for decent secondary sources. This article in its entirety may need to go if no one can replace the copy paste. The whole article will need to be redone. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Clubspike2 (talk • contribs) 09:26, 20 October 2022 (UTC)
