Suggestions for work on this page

[edit]

Create a section on the history of EIA, to include where Allan, Jenny and Dave met, and EIA's key successes. link to start you off: http://www.eia-international.org/cgi/news/news.cgi?t=template&a=177

Create a section on the TV series- the Animal Detectives, which would include connections and references to Carlton etc, dates of airing, key results from this series. Here is a link to get us started: http://ftvdb.bfi.org.uk/sift/series/24687

- is there any YouTube one could link to? Animal Detectives should have its own page too

A section on the key groups that EIA has worked with, or just links to them would be nice.

Maybe a list of key publications, especially any books, with ISBN

While we are at it, surely Allan Thornton should have his own page? Anyone? link to start you off: http://www.eia-international.org/cgi/news/news.cgi?t=template&a=177 for comparison Paul Watson has a page and Allan is an OBE.

Take a look at other comparable groups and see what they have- Greenpeace, Sea Shepherd etc. I think by the time we have done most of this, with proper references, catagories and internal links this would make it at least start class. IceDragon64 (talk) 23:15, 3 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]


Encyclopedic Style?

[edit]

This article is not written in a very encyclopedic style- it looks very much as if it is written by/for EIA. It is time something was put into the article about its controversies- disputes with other NGO's, inconsistancy of giving the impression that the small whales are endangered, etc. WITH REF's IceDragon64 (talk) 23:04, 20 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Category?

[edit]

Is there/should there be a catagory for Environment NGO's? IceDragon64 (talk) 23:32, 3 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]


Ideas for NGO pages

[edit]

Maybe we should create some kind of template of a table of key facts for NGO's if it doesn't exist already. Current membership figures would make a useful comparison between groups. An award list would be good. What else? IceDragon64 (talk) 23:40, 3 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Critisism

[edit]

Someone add a section about all the problems they've caused!!!123.255.23.248 (talk) 14:26, 21 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Good idea. So long as it is properly referenced. spelt criticism.

Article has no independent sources

[edit]

All the references to this article seem to be to the Environmental Investigation Agency webside itself, contrary to WP:V and WP:RS. Are there not any independent sources for this article? Regards, —mattisse (Talk) 20:20, 18 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"Self-published"

[edit]

This, along with what looks like many other Wikipedia articles, have been "self-published" to Project Gutenberg under the name "World Heritage Encyclopedia". Rather badly, at that, because the references don't work and there's a pile of metadata at the bottom.
