Talk:Asparagopsis

Remove reference?

Is the only way to remove a reference to delete the info in the template? Reference 13 appears irrelevant and can't be verified. Mamalionesse (talk) 18:09, 22 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It has a specific page reference and seems legit to me. We don't discount references just because they're not online. Laterthanyouthink (talk) 21:00, 22 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, that makes sense. Thanks! Mamalionesse (talk) 02:31, 29 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Are these references spurious?

Is it just me? From Economic Use: "Emissions were reduced by 80% when Asparagopsis accounted for 3% of the cattle's feed." References cited are:

I have checked them both and, while I learned interesting things, they do not relate to the quoted results. Mamalionesse (talk) 04:45, 29 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
