September 2023

This article is of interest to WikiProject Media as it is a good example of the third-party technique in public relations to influence people’s perceptions and affect government policy.

This article is of interest to WikiProject Psychology as it illustrates the power of using the third party technique to attain credibility for social influence and how sustained use of public relations and propaganda techniques can change opinions. Propaganda is a subcategory of Persuasion, which in turn is a subcategory of Social Psychology.

This article is of interest to WikiProject Medicine as dog attacks, especially from pit bulls, are a major source of pediatric trauma. In addition, the National Canine Research Center’s studies imply that medical professionals are not being able to correctly identify a dog’s breed in an attack, implying their studies are not valid and can be dismissed. They further argue that breed is irrelevant to aggression and should not even be reported, e.g., the CDC has been influenced by the AVMA to no longer report breeds involved in dog attacks.

The article is of interest to WikiProject Science and WikiProject Skepticism as it illustrates how a well-funded, non-partisan advocacy group can use public relations to effectively sway public opinion away from a consensus scientific opinion and thus undercut the credibility of legitimate scientific studies performed by medical doctors and instead contribute to a politicization of science.

Feedback from New Page Review process

I left the following feedback for the creator/future reviewers while reviewing this article: Hi, There is lots of harv errors on this page. Many are actually bibliography entries that are referenced from citations. They should have bibliography section. The further reading sections shouldn't be any citation at all. Great article.

Section headings and order

Currently the section headings are very different from most articles on organisation, there's no history section and heading are all over the place. Traumnovelle (talk) 03:52, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

WP:MOS doesn't dictate articles to be identical to others. There is nothing here that violates MOS:SECTIONHEAD.

However, you are most welcome to add a History section. I don't have much more than what is in the lede and in the rest of the article so maybe you can contribute more info for such a section.

I don't understand what you mean by "section and heading are all over the place". Can you clarify? Veritas Aeterna (talk) 00:25, 30 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

They don't have to be identical but as I said on the NCRC page the article reads more like an essay. Putting them under a controversy and criticism section would help with that. There's also sections that are unnecessary like one that is just a single paragraph on Malbouef's description of the pit bull lobby. Traumnovelle (talk) 00:30, 30 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
